| Abstract | Stress stimulates the sympathoadrenal system, causing activation of the catecholamine biosynthetic enzymes. Here we examine the changes of gene expression of tyrosine hydroxylase (TH; EC 1.14.16.2), the initial enzyme of catecholamine biosynthesis, with stress. A single immobilization of rats led to a large transient elevation in TH mRNA and a small elevation in TH immunoreactive protein and activity. Repeated daily immobilizations triggered more sustained changes in TH mRNA levels. After two immobilizations, the levels remained elevated even 3 days later. The rise in TH mRNA was followed by increased immunoreactive protein but only a small elevation in activity. With seven repeated immobilizations, the animals did not appear to adapt and still manifested a further rise in TH mRNA. TH activity was markedly elevated and returned to control levels 7 days after the immobilization. The rise in TH mRNA with a single immobilization occurred even in adrenals of hypophysectomized rats that underwent splanchnic nerve section. Immobilization for 30 min was sufficient to increase TH mRNA. The effect was abolished by the transcriptional inhibitor actinomycin D. Mobility gel-shift assays revealed increased binding of c-Fos and c-Jun to the AP-1 transcription factor site after a single immobilization, and the binding was not further elevated with repeated stress. This study shows that a single immobilization can activate TH gene expression by a nonneuronal nonpituitary-mediated pathway associated with increased binding of AP-1 transcription factors. |

National Digital Library of India (NDLI) is a virtual repository of learning resources which is not just a repository with search/browse facilities but provides a host of services for the learner community. It is sponsored and mentored by Ministry of Education, Government of India, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT). Filtered and federated searching is employed to facilitate focused searching so that learners can find the right resource with least effort and in minimum time. NDLI provides user group-specific services such as Examination Preparatory for School and College students and job aspirants. Services for Researchers and general learners are also provided. NDLI is designed to hold content of any language and provides interface support for 10 most widely used Indian languages. It is built to provide support for all academic levels including researchers and life-long learners, all disciplines, all popular forms of access devices and differently-abled learners. It is designed to enable people to learn and prepare from best practices from all over the world and to facilitate researchers to perform inter-linked exploration from multiple sources. It is developed, operated and maintained from Indian Institute of Technology Kharagpur.

NDLI is a conglomeration of freely available or institutionally contributed or donated or publisher managed contents. Almost all these contents are hosted and accessed from respective sources. The responsibility for authenticity, relevance, completeness, accuracy, reliability and suitability of these contents rests with the respective organization and NDLI has no responsibility or liability for these. Every effort is made to keep the NDLI portal up and running smoothly unless there are some unavoidable technical issues.
Ministry of Education, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT), has sponsored and funded the National Digital Library of India (NDLI) project.
