Journal ArticleDOI
Depression and anxiety symptoms in relation to anthropometry and metabolism in men
Ann-Charlotte Ahlberg,Thomas Ljung,Roland Rosmond,Bruce S. McEwen,Göran Holm,Hans Olof Åkesson,Per Björntorp +6 more
TL;DR: It is concluded that men with abdominal obesity have symptoms of depression and anxiety.
Journal ArticleDOI
Stress habituation, body shape and cardiovascular mortality.
Achim Peters,Bruce S. McEwen +1 more
TL;DR: This work expands upon the energetic demands of the brain and shows that 'habituators' and 'non-habituator' develop divergent patterns of fat distribution, central to this process is the recurrent rise in the cerebral energy need (arousal) that non-habitators experience during chronic stress.
Journal ArticleDOI
Anatomical Localization of the Effects of 17β-Estradiol on Oxytocin Receptor Binding in the Ventromedial Hypothalamic Nucleus*
TL;DR: In this article, the distribution of OT receptors within the ventromedial hypothalamic nucleus (VMN) was described, and the authors found that ovarian steroids sensitize the brain to OT by increasing OT receptor binding in certain brain areas involved in the regulation of female sexual behavior.
Journal ArticleDOI
Glucocorticoid binding to receptor-like proteins in rat brain and pituitary: ontogenetic and experimentally induced changes.
Hans-Rudolf Olpe,Bruce S. McEwen +1 more
TL;DR: In an attempt to interfere with the normal glucocorticoid binding of the hippocampus as well as with the postadrenalectomy increase of the cytosol binding sites, bilateral transection of the fimbria was performed either 3 days or 80 days before ADX.
Journal ArticleDOI
Induction of FOS immunoreactivity in oxytocin neurons after sexual activity in female rats
TL;DR: The results are consistent with the hypothesis that endogenous OT is involved in female sexual behavior, and suggest that the source of oxytocinergic innervation to the Oxytocin receptors in the VMN may be neurons in the PVN.
