Photoperiod effects on bombesin- and cholecystokinin-like immunoreactivity in the suprachiasmatic nuclei of the Djungarian hamster (Phodopus sungorus)

1991

The immunocytochemical distribution of the putative satiety peptides bombesin (BBS) and cholecystokinin (CCK) were studied in the hypothalamic suprachiasmatic nuclei (SCN) of male and female Djungarian hamsters (Phodopus sungorus) held under either long (light/dark, LD 16:8 h) or short (LD 8:16) photoperiod. The animals were killed by perfusion with a fixative at the middle of the light period and the tissue was processed by routine immunohistochemical methods. Perikarya exhibiting BBS- or CCK-like immunoreactivity (LI) were found in the SCN of animals of all groups. Sex-related differences were not observed. In contrast, long-term exposure to short days decreased the number of neurons exhi…

Role of central oxytocin in the inhibition by endotoxin of distension-stimulated gastric acid secretion

2000

The gastric acid hyposecretory state associated with endotoxemia is mediated by a nervous reflex involving the central nervous system. The aim of the present study was to analyse the central effects of different peptides on distension-stimulated gastric acid secretion and the endogenous role of such peptides on the hyposecretory effects of endotoxin. The effect of an intracisternal (i.c.) administration of oxytocin, vasopressin, corticotropin releasing factor (CRF), bombesin, somatostatin and the opioid receptor agonist BW443C or an intravenous (i.v.) injection of a small dose of endotoxin on distension-stimulated gastric acid secretion was studied in the continuously perfused stomach of an…

Synthesis of nitric oxide in the dorsal motor nucleus of the vagus mediates the inhibition of gastric acid secretion by central bombesin

1999

1. Central administration of bombesin inhibits gastric acid production independently of the centrally or peripherally-acting stimuli employed. This study evaluates the role and location of the cerebral nitric oxide (NO) implicated in the inhibitory effect of central bombesin on in vivo rat gastric acid secretion, as induced by distension with 15 cm H2O, insulin (0.75 u.i. kg-1 i.p.) TRH (1.2 microg kg-1, i.c.) or pentagastrin (100 microg kg-1, i.p.). 2. The acid-inhibitory effect of i.c. bombesin (40 ng kg-1) was prevented by prior administration of L-NAME (80 microg kg-1) in the dorsal motor nucleus of the vagus (DMN). This dose of L-NAME when administered into the nucleus of the tractus s…

Le livre illustré face à la danse : un médium empathique ?

2020

This article looks at the illustrated book as an intermedial transaction relying on a process of empathetic reception. The books examined here belong to the revival of illustration in England after the First World War: the series Impressions of the Russian Ballet (1918-1922) written and published by Cyril Beaumont, and the ‘livre de peintre’ Russian Ballet (1919) written and illustrated by David Bomberg. Part and parcel of the reception of modern dance, and more precisely of the Russian ballet, these books emphasize the symbolic significance of print in its ability to capture the ephemeral performance of dance.
