  • Catecholamine Levels and Activity of Monoamine Oxidase in Some Hypothalamic Structures and in the Pineal Gland of Sheep After Administration of FSH
    Physiol. Res. 45:131-136, 1996 Catecholamine Levels and Activity of Monoamine Oxidase in Some Hypothalamic Structures and in the Pineal Gland of Sheep after Administration of FSH B. PASTOROVA, J. VARADY Department of Comparative Physiology , University of Veterinary Medicine, Kosice, Slovak Republic Receded March 6, 1995 Accepted November 13, 1995 Summary The influence of hormonal preparations of FSH in a dose of 24 mg (480 IU) on levels of catecholamine (dopamine, norepinephrine and epinephrine) and the activity of their degradation enzyme monoamine oxidase (MAO) in the hypothalamic regions regulating the reproductive system of sheep (area preoptica, eminentia mediana, corpus mamillare) and pineal gland were investigated in the ocstrous period employing radiochemical methods. The administration of FSH resulted in significant (p<0.001) increases of dopamine levels in the area preoptica and corpus mamillare of the hypothalamus of sheep as compared to control groups with synchronized oestrus. Hormonal stimulation with FSH increased the levels of hypothalamic norepinephrine in the areas studied and these differences were significant in the eminentia mediana (p<0.05) and corpus mamillare (p<0.05). Significant (p<0.001) changes in epinephrine levels were found in the corpus mamillare and area preoptica (p<0.05). Our results indicate that the administration of FSH caused the most pronounced decrease of MAO activity in corpus mamillare (p<0.001). The pineal gland reacted to the hormonal preparation by decreased levels of norepinephrine and dopamine (p<0.001) and by an increase in MAO activity (p<0.01). We suggest that FSH administration affects catecholamine levels and the activity of monoamine oxidase in the studied areas of the brain of sheep by means of a feedback mechanism.

  • Catecholamine-Induced Lipolysis in Obesity
    International Journal of Obesity (1999) 23, Suppl 1, 10±13 ß 1999 Stockton Press All rights reserved 0307±0565/99 $12.00 http://www.stockton-press.co.uk/ijo Catecholamine-induced lipolysis in obesity Peter Arner1* 1Department of Medicine, Karolinska Institute at Huddinge University Hospital, CME, S-141 86 Huddinge, Sweden Catecholamines are the only hormones with pronounced lipolytic action in man. A number of in vivo and in vitro studies suggest that there is lipolytic resistance to catecholamines in subcutaneous adipose tissue, which is the major fat depot in obese subjects. This is due to multiple alterations in catecholamine signal transduction, involving decreased expression and function of b2-adrenoceptors, increased function of a2-adrenoceptors and decreased ability of cyclic monophosphate (AMP) to stimulate hormone sensitive lipase. A sedentary life-style, which usually characterizes obesity, may contribute to the catecholamine resistance. However, hereditary=genetic factors may also be involved. Recently, decreased expression and function of hormone sensitive lipase has been found in subcutaneous adipocytes of non-obese subjects with heredity for obesity. In addition, polymorphisms in the genes for b2-adrenoceptors, b3-adrenoceptors and hormone sensitive lipase, associate with obesity. On the other hand, catecholamine-induced lipolysis in visceral adipose tissue is increased in obesity due to increased function of b3- adrenoceptors (major ®nding), decreased function of a2-adrenoceptors and increased ability of cyclic AMP to stimulate lipolysis. When the ®ndings in different adipose regions are considered together, it appears that there is a re- distribution of lipolysis and thereby fatty acid mobilization in obesity, favouring the visceral fat depot.
