Vitamin E is, however, not a single compound and refers to at least four tocopherols (alpha-, beta-, delta- and gamma-tocopherol) and four tocotrienols (alpha-, beta-, delta- and gamma-tocotrienol).
Hybridization intensities actually increased with decreasing oligonucleotide concentration for 14-3-3 protein gamma, desmin, SCG10, and to a lesser extent thymosin beta-4 (Figure 7a).
Down-regulation occurs after prolonged agonist treatment (hours to days), resulting in a loss of receptor binding sites [ 2 3 4 ] . The processes involved in homologous desensitization have been extensively investigated for the beta-2 adrenergic receptor, which is the prototypical G protein-coupled receptor.
The selected probes included SCG10 and desmin, which were highly differentially expressed in brain and heart, respectively; 14-3-3-gamma and profilin which were expressed at around twofold higher levels in brain and heart, respectively; and histone H4, 14-3-3-theta and thymosin beta-4, which showed no difference in expression between brain and heart.
There are three subtypes of the alpha-2 adrenergic receptor: alpha-2A; alpha-2B; and alpha-2C [ 15 ] . The human alpha-2A subtype undergoes phosphorylation and short-term desensitization [ 11 12 ] , whereas the human alpha-2C subtype is not phosphorylated [ 16 ] and does not desensitize [ 11 ] . The human alpha-2C subtype, however, does undergo arrestin-dependent internalization [ 17 ] . Many studies [ 11 18 ] , including those from our laboratory [ 10 19 20 ] , have demonstrated agonist-induced down-regulation of alpha-2 receptors, although much less is known about the specific mechanisms for down-regulation as compared to the beta-2 receptor.
