Journal ArticleDOI
Vasopressin injected into the hypothalamus triggers a stereotypic behavior in golden hamsters
TL;DR: Microinjection of arginine vasopressin into the medial preoptic area of the hypothalamus of male and female golden hamsters triggered a complex, stereotypic behavior--flank marking--a type of scent marking used in olfactory communication.
Journal ArticleDOI
Interaction of colocalized neuropeptides: functional significance in the circadian timing system.
TL;DR: Coadministration of VIP, PHI, and GRP within the SCN mimicked the phase- delaying effects of light on circadian control following in vivo microinjection and activated SCN single units recorded in vitro, demonstrating a new mechanism whereby multiple, colocalized neuropeptides interact in a functionally significant manner.
Journal ArticleDOI
Gonadal hormones organize and modulate the circadian system of the rat.
TL;DR: The circadian wheel-running rhythms of gonadectomized adult male, female, and perinatally androgenized female rats, maintained in constant darkness, were examined before and after implantation of Silastic capsules containing cholesterol (C) or estradiol-17 beta (E).
Journal ArticleDOI
Avian Pancreatic Polypeptide Phase Shifts Hamster Circadian Rhythms When Microinjected into the Suprachiasmatic Region
TL;DR: Avian pancreatic polypeptide or a similar peptide may be one component of the neurochemical processes underlying entrainment to the light-dark cycle.
Journal ArticleDOI
Neuropeptide Y microinjected into the suprachiasmatic region phase shifts circadian rhythms in constant darkness

TL;DR: Data suggest that NPY produces phase shifts by some mechanism other than by inducing wheel running or by inhibiting the response of SCN neurons to light and supports a role for NPY in nonphotic shifting of the circadian clock.
