Journal ArticleDOI

Functional sex differences (`sexual diergism') of central nervous system cholinergic systems, vasopressin, and hypothalamic–pituitary–adrenal axis activity in mammals: a selective review

TL;DR: This review focuses on the sexual diergism of CNS cholinergic and vasopressinergic systems and their relationship to the HPA axis, with resulting implications for the study of behavior, disease, and therapeutics.
Journal ArticleDOI

Regional Xenon 133 Cerebral Blood Flow and Cerebral Technetium 99m HMPAO Uptake in Unmedicated Patients With Obsessive-Compulsive Disorder and Matched Normal Control Subjects: Determination by High-Resolution Single-Photon Emission Computed Tomography

TL;DR: In this article, the authors measured regional cerebral blood flow (rCBF) with the xenon 133 ( 133 Xe) inhalation method and with regional cerebral uptake of technetium 99m d,l -hexamethyl propyleneamine oxime ( 99m Tc-HMPAO) by single-photon emission computed tomography in 10 adult male patients with OCD and in 10 agematched adult male normal controls.
Journal ArticleDOI

Neuroendocrine aspects of primary endogenous depression. XI. Serum melatonin measures in patients and matched control subjects.

TL;DR: The melatonin measures were not consistently related to any of the previously reported hypothalamic-pituitary-adrenal cortical axis measures in these subjects, and failed to confirm a "low melatonin syndrome" or an inverse relationship between nocturnal melatonin andnocturnal cortisol concentrations in depression.
Journal ArticleDOI

Neuroendocrine aspects of primary endogenous depression. XV: Mathematical modeling of nocturnal melatonin secretion in major depressives and normal controls.

TL;DR: The linear-Beta model appears to satisfactorily fit the MEL data and provides estimators of the onset, peak, and offset times of the activation phase of MEL secretion, applicable to more severely skewed 24-h hormone secretion curves, such as ACTH and cortisol.
Journal ArticleDOI

The effect of nursing on neurohypophyseal hormone and prolactin secretion in human subjects.

TL;DR: The data suggest that suckling is a specific stimulus for OT and PRL secretion but has no effect on AVP release.
