This is the first report of diurnal variations in the levels of thyrotropin-releasing hormone-like peptides (pGlu-X-Pro-NH(2), where "X" can be any amino acid residue) in brain regions involved in mood regulation. These peptides have neuroprotective and antidepressant-like properties that may

A metabolically stable and centrally acting analog of pGlu-Glu-Pro-NH2 ([Glu2]TRH, a tripeptide structurally related to TRH (thyrotropin-releasing hormone)) was designed by replacing the amino-terminal pyroglutamyl residue with a pyridinium moiety. The analeptic action of the analog was used to optimize

Local perfusion of pGlu-Glu-Pro-NH2, an endogenous peptide structurally related to thyrotropine-releasing hormone (TRH), via in vivo microdialysis into the rat hippocampus did not change the basal level of extracellular acetylcholine. However, co-perfusion of pGlu-Glu-Pro-NH2 with TRH in equimolar concentrations yielded

Potential prodrugs for the TRH-like tripeptide pGlu-Glu-Pro-NH(2) were synthesized either by esterifying the Glu side-chain of the parent peptide in solution with alcohols in the presence of resin-bound dicyclohexylcarbodiimide or by solid-phase peptide chemistry. Affinities of these ester prodrugs to

When placed in a suitable environment, mammalian spermatozoa begin to capacitate and continue until fully capacitated; in vitro, some will 'over-capacitate' and undergo spontaneous acrosome loss, undesirable since acrosome-reacted cells are non-fertilizing. Seminal plasma contains several molecules able to bind
