TL;DR: A stress-like stimulatory dose response was noted after both adrenaline and noradrenaline infusions, with a half-maximal effect at concentrations of about 0.6 nmol and a maximal effect at 2.7 nmol or more, at maximally effective doses, adrenaline was significantly more active than norad Renaline.

TL;DR: Results from the present study strongly suggest a differential involvement of the hypothalamic noradrenergic innervation upon the hypothalamus-pituitary-adrenal axis according to the nature of stress conditions.

TL;DR: In two simultaneous studies on unanesthetized rats implanted with either an intracerebral cannula adjacent to the paraventricular nucleus of the hypothalamus and an intracarotid cannula, the effect of interleukin-1 beta infused on the release of corticotropin-releasing hormone (CRH) 41 and adrenocorticotropic hormone (ACTH) was explored.

TL;DR: Bilateral ablation of paraventricular nuclei did not obliterate the hormonal rhythms, although the rhythms' amplitude were markedly depressed, and Daily 5-HTP injections, if given 4 h after dawn restored normal ACTH rhythm.

TL;DR: Changes in plasma ACTH and corticosterone concentrations were measured in individual cannulated rats at stages 1 and 5 of limbic kindling induced by electrical stimulation of the basolateral amygdala or the dorsal hippocampus to discuss the central control of the adrenocorticotropic system and the neuroendocrine correlates of the kindling process.
