title: [Delta sleep-inducing peptide in the blood and hypothalamus of rats with various resistance to emotional stress].
abstract: Enzyme immunoassay was used to study delta-sleep peptide content in blood and hypothalamus in rats of Wistar lines under acute emotional stress. It was found that the content of delta-sleep peptide in blood and hypothalamus of stable rats was higher as compared with rats predisposed to emotional stress. After 1.5-hour emotional stress the content of delta-sleep peptide increased in blood and hypothalamus both in stable rats and predisposed ones. After 3-hour stress there was an increase in delta-sleep peptide content in hypothalamus, and contrary to its decrease in blood in both stable and predisposed animals. It is supposed that delta-sleep peptide along with other oligopeptides is one of the factors determining individual animal resistance to emotional stress, which is supported by significant delta-sleep peptide increase in hypothalamus in stable rats.
