## Abstract The effect of __α__‐melanocyte stimulating hormone (__α__‐MSH) was investigated on gentamicin‐induced acute renal injury in rats. Sprague‐Dawley rats (200–250 g; __n__ = 8–10) were treated with gentamicin sulphate (GEN; 80 mg kg^−1^) or saline intraperitoneally for 7 consecutive days. _
## Abstract The effect of the chronic administration of α‐MSH on the incorporation of tritiated tyrosine into noradrenalin and dopamine and of tritiated tryptophan into serotonin was studied in different regions of the rat brain. α‐MSH increased the incorporation of tritiated tryptophan into seroto
