Journal ArticleDOI

Estrogen and progestin receptors appear in transplanted fetal hypothalamus-preoptic area independently of the steroid environment.

TL;DR: Estrogen receptors were assayed in HPOA 8 weeks after transplantation of the tissue from embryonic day 15 to 18 fetuses and found to be biochemically functional as indicated by the ability of acute estrogen treatment to induce progestin receptors in the transplants.
Journal ArticleDOI

Regional specificity in estradiol effects on [3H]uridine incorporation in rat brain

TL;DR: The results indicate that the effects of estradiol on levels of newly synthesized RNA vary in a functionally and regionally specific manner within the brain.
Journal ArticleDOI

The untapped power of allostasis promoted by healthy lifestyles.

TL;DR: An evolutionary view helps to see mood as the product of interactions between neurobiological mechanisms and the structures the authors give to their societies and environments.
Journal ArticleDOI

Childhood trauma and insulin resistance in patients suffering from depressive disorders.

TL;DR: It is suggested that Fam‐Hx‐Dm2 and emotional abuse represent separate risk factors for developing metabolic dysfunction in patients suffering from MDD, and that the effects of emotional abuse on psychiatric illness may depend upon the personal characteristics, including Fam‐ Hx‐DM2.
Journal ArticleDOI

Quantitative autoradiography of [3H]piquindone binding sites (dopamine D2 receptors) in rat brain.

TL;DR: In vitro quantitative autoradiography indicated that binding sites of [3H](-)piquindone are localized to olfactory tubercle, accumbens nucleus, caudate putamen, cell bridges between caudates putamen and olfaction, and substantia nigra, which means that binding in these areas is stereoselective since it is found no specific binding with [ 3H](+)piquinone, the biologically inactive enantiomer.
