Neurobiology of corticotropin releasing factor (CRF) receptors and CRF-binding protein: implications for the treatment of CNS disorders.

Mol. Psychiatry 1 , 265-277, (1996)

The actions of CRF in the brain and in the periphery are mediated through multiple binding sites. There are three receptors, CRF1, CRF2 alpha and CRF2 beta, which encode 411, 415 and 431 amino acid proteins and transduce signals via the stimulation of intrace...

Corticotropin-releasing factor-binding protein ligand inhibitor blunts excessive weight gain in genetically obese Zucker rats and rats during nicotine withdrawal.

Proc. Natl. Acad. Sci. U. S. A. 93 , 15475-15480, (1996)

Elevation of the neuropeptide corticotropin-releasing factor (CRF) in the brain is associated with a reduction of food intake and body weight gain in normal and obese animals. A protein that binds CRF and the related peptide, urocortin, with high affinity, CR...
