Journal ArticleDOI

Effects of lesions of the suprachiasmatic nuclei and of p-chlorophenylalanine on the circadian rhythms of adrenocorticotrophic hormone and corticosterone in the plasma, and on locomotor activity of rats.

TL;DR: The proposition that both the suprachiasmatic nuclei and the serotoninergic system play an irreplaceable role in the mechanism of ACTH secretory rhythms is supported.
Journal ArticleDOI

A single brain-derived neurotrophic factor injection modifies hypothalamo-pituitary-adrenocortical axis activity in adult male rats.

TL;DR: The results strongly suggest that BDNF could be a stress-responsive intercellular messenger since when it is exogenously administered acts as an important and early component in the activation and recruitment of hypothalamic CRH and AVP neurons.
Journal ArticleDOI

Brain-derived neurotrophic factor and hypothalamic-pituitary-adrenal axis adaptation processes in a depressive-like state induced by chronic restraint stress.

TL;DR: It was shown that chronic restraint stress induced a depressive-like state that was sustained by mechanisms associated with BDNF regulation and the HPA axis response to novel acute stress was modified, suggesting adaptive mechanisms.
Journal ArticleDOI

Time-Course and Regional Analyses of the Physiopathological Changes Induced after Cerebral Injection of an Amyloid β Fragment in Rats

TL;DR: The acute intracerebroventricular Aβ(25-35) injection induced substantial central modifications in rats, highly reminiscent of the human physiopathology, that could contribute to physiological and cognitive deficits observed in AD.
Journal ArticleDOI

Diurnal-stimulated and stress-induced ACTH release in rats is mediated by ventral noradrenergic bundle

TL;DR: Female rats were bilaterally injected with 3 micrograms of 6-hydroxydopamine dissolved in 0.2 microliter saline, via a glass micropipet stereotaxically implanted into the ventral noradrenergic-ascending bundle (VNAB), leading to pharmacological destruction of the VNAB and a striking decrease in the histofluorescence of hypothalamic catecholaminergic innervation.
