Brain region discrete

Two CCK receptor subtypes, CCK and CCKg are known. A related receptor, the gastrin receptor, has also been described. CCK receptors predominate in the gastrointestinal tract and pancreas and are also localized in discrete brain regions. CCKg receptors predominate in the brain. A 71623...

Histaminergic neurons can regulate and be regulated by other neurotransmitter systems. A number of other transmitter systems can interact with histaminergic neurons (Table 14-1). As mentioned, the H3 receptor is thought to function as an inhibitory heteroreceptor. Thus, activation of brain H3 receptors decreases the release of acetylcholine, dopamine, norepinephrine, serotonin and certain peptides. However, histamine may also increase the activity of some of these systems through H, and/or H2 receptors. Activation of NMDA, p opioid, dopamine D2 and some serotonin receptors can increase the release of neuronal histamine, whereas other transmitter receptors seem to decrease release. Different patterns of interactions may also be found in discrete brain regions. 

Cell fractionation procedures were fundamental to the biochemical identification of steroid and thyroid hormone receptors in brain as well as in other tissues. Isolation of highly purified cell nuclei from small amounts of tissue from discrete brain regions generally is accomplished with the aid of a nonionic detergent, such as Triton X-100 [7],...
