  1. 01AnimalAnimal study (in vivo)Mechanism

    In rats, neither DSIP nor several analogs inhibited the passage of radioactive N-Tyr-DSIP across the blood-brain barrier.

    In plain wordsIn rats, unlabelled DSIP and analogs did not block radioactive DSIP from crossing into the brain.

    Summary
    Neither DSIP nor several analogs, including non-radioactive [127I]N-Tyr-DSIP, injected by the jugular vein or carotid artery, inhibited passage of radioactive [125I]N-Tyr-DSIP across the rat BBB.

    Summary · context
    New experiments were conducted to determine if this crossing was competitive.
  2. 02AnimalAnimal study (in vivo)Pharmacokinetics

    In rats, column chromatography showed the radioactivity in brain was intact N-Tyr-DSIP, and competitors did not interfere with its degradation or binding.

    Summary
    Column chromatography of brain samples confirmed that the radioactivity in the brain represented intact [125I]N-Tyr-DSIP and that the non-radioactive competing materials did not interfere with the degradation or binding of [125I]N-Tyr-DSIP.
