Abstract
Metabolic effects of delta-sleep inducing peptide (DSIP) under hypoxia stress were investigated in rats subjected to short-term hypoxic conditions (about 0.26 Bar). It was found that DSIP partially restricted stress-induced changes in activity of mitochondrial monoamine oxidase type A (MAO-A) and serotonin level in rat brain. A number of DSIP analogues was tested and among them there were some compounds with enhanced ability to counteract hypoxia induced changes in MAO-A activity and serotonin content in comparison with native neuropeptide.
