Disease relevance of Crhr1

  • The rCRF-R is 97% identical at the amino acid level to the human pituitary tumor CRF receptor, differing by only 12 amino acids [1].
  • Having recently characterized the human pituitary CRF receptor by expression cloning of cDNA from a human Cushing's corticotropic adenoma, we report here the structure of the cDNA for a rat brain CRF receptor (rCRF-R) which was cloned by hybridization from a rat brain cDNA library [1].
  • Neuronal activity and CRF receptor gene transcription in the brains of rats with colitis [2].
  • These studies demonstrated changes in the expression of CRF in urinary bladder and SPN region with CYP-induced cystitis and CRF receptor (CRF(2)) expression in nerve fibers and urothelium in control rats [3].
  • These data suggest that decreased food intake and weight loss after high-dose Cort administration at least partially depend on the profound impact of Cort on plasma leptin secretion in the rat; they suggest, moreover, an additional mechanism for the satiety-inducing effects of leptin, namely increasing CRHR-2 in the VMH [4].

High impact information on Crhr1

  • We found that antalarmin, a CRH receptor type 1 antagonist, decreased FasL expression and promoted apoptosis of activated T lymphocytes, an effect which was potentiated by CRH and inhibited by antalarmin [8].
  • Leptin affects food intake via CRF-receptor-mediated pathways [9].
  • First, LTD induction was effectively blocked by specific CRF receptor antagonists, alpha-helical CRF-(9-41) (alpha-h CRF) and astressin; and second, LTD was no longer observed in CF-deprived cerebella but was restored by CRF replenishment [10].
  • The pattern of CRF receptor mRNA expression in the brain, pituitary gland, and other organs corresponds precisely to that predicted for the classic CRF receptor, suggesting that this receptor serves to mediate the known biological effects of CRF on behavior, stress, and homeostasis [11].
  • In the brain, CRF 2 receptor, but not CRF 1 receptor, is involved in this action [12].
 

Chemical compound and disease context of Crhr1

 

Biological context of Crhr1

  • Brain stem hemisection, which damaged all ascending catecholaminergic fibers with the exception of the locus ceruleus, attenuated immobilization stress-induced up-regulation of CRH-R mRNA ipsilaterally in the PVN [18].
  • The temporal and anatomic selectivity of the ovarian periovulatory CRF1 receptor gene expression may suggest a critical biological action of CRF during the ovulatory process and suggests that the intraovarian environment may influence the stress-induced transcription of a selective CRF receptor subtype within the ovary [19].
  • Interestingly, immobilization stress induced a marked expression of CRF1 receptor mRNA in the stroma cells in the afternoon of proestrus, suggesting that the ovaries may be sensitive to acute neurogenic challenge during the preovulatory stage [19].
  • These results provide clear evidence that the gene encoding the CRF1 receptor but not the type 2 receptors can be finely induced in selective ovarian compartments in both control and stressful conditions during the gonadal life cycle [19].
  • Urocortin (Ucn) is a closely related mammalian peptide that binds to both identified CRH receptor subtypes and also reduces food intake when administered i3vt [20].
 

Anatomical context of Crhr1

 

Associations of Crhr1 with chemical compounds

 

Physical interactions of Crhr1

  • The actions of CRF are mediated by G-protein coupled membrane bound receptors and a high affinity CRF receptor, CRF1, has been previously cloned and functionally characterized [21].
 

Regulatory relationships of Crhr1

 

Other interactions of Crhr1

  • This heterogeneous distribution of CRF1 and CRF2 receptor mRNA suggests distinctive functional roles for each receptor in CRF-related systems [21].
  • Employing a double-immunocytochemical technique, this study investigated in Wistar rats with Freund's complete adjuvant-induced hind paw inflammation whether immune cells within blood and inflamed subcutaneous tissue express CRH R1 and/or CRH R2 together with the opioid peptide beta-endorphin (END) [27].
  • GR mRNA expression was increased in hippocampal CA1 and the dentate gyrus of CRF1-antagonist treated nonhandled rats to levels commensurate with those in handled cohorts [28].
  • These results suggest that the cardiac effects of Ucn may be mediated by a CRF receptor, and prostaglandins may be involved in the vasodilator effect [29].
  • Distribution of corticotropin releasing hormone receptor immunoreactivity in the rat hypothalamus: coexpression in neuropeptide Y and dopamine neurons in the arcuate nucleus [30].
