The levels of mRNAs coding for tryptophan hydroxylase (TPOH), the first enzyme in melatonin synthesis, have been investigated by quantitative reverse transcription of RNA, followed by polymerase chain reaction (RT-PCR), after stimulation of neonatal pineal organ cultures with Noradrenaline (NA). TPO
Environmental contaminants, such as 2,3,7,8-tetrachlorodibenzo-p-dioxin (TCDD), cause alterations in gene expression. In this study, we measured the regulation of estrogen receptor (ER) mRNA in female CD-1 mice by competitive RT-PCR. Previous work suggests that ER protein levels are affected by TCDD
