Experiments were carried out to determine whether stress induces biochemical changes in the pro-opiomelanocortin (POMC) system in anterior (AL) and intermediate-posterior lobe (IPL) of rat. In a series of pulse-chase experiments, acute stress led to an increase in POMC biosynthesis and shorter half-life in AL. However, when the animals were chronically stressed, the AL no longer exhibited increased POMC synthesis. On the other hand, in the IPL, acute stress did not produce any biochemical changes, but chronic stress led to an increase in POMC synthesis and shorter half-life. These data suggest that AL and IPL are affected by acute and/or chronic exposure to stress in opposite directions and that the POMC system in AL may play an important role in stress-induced analgesia.
