Cascade afteraction of delta sleep-inducing peptide in rats

Abstract

Delta sleep-inducing peptide is found to alter markedly the levels of substance P, β-endorphin, and corticosterone in the hypothalamus and blood plasma of rats, suggesting that the long-lasting stress-mitigating effects of this peptide are due to the considerable changes it causes in the content of other oligopeptides and hormones, involving them in various processes. Thus, DSIP itself appears to act only as a trigger, initiating a cascade of interdependent molecular reactions that correlate with the degree of resistance to stress.
