Journal ArticleDOI
DAMGO suppresses both excitatory and inhibitory synaptic transmission in supraoptic neurones of mouse hypothalamic slice preparations.
TL;DR: Results imply that DAMGO strongly suppresses the release of glutamate and GABA via µ‐opioid receptors in the mouse SON, and support the involvement of presynaptic regulation by opioids in the control of magnocellular neurosecretory neurones.

TL;DR: Both in human and experimental septic shock, AVP posttranscriptional synthesis and transport are differently modified in the magnocellular neurons of the supraoptic and paraventricular nuclei, which may account for the inappropriate AVP release in sepsis and suggests that distinct pathogenic mechanisms operate in these nuclei.

Metabotropic glutamate receptors: gatekeepers of homeostasis.
J. B. Kuzmiski,Jaideep S. Bains +1 more
TL;DR: Recent advances in understanding of plasticity at glutamate synapses onto magnocellular neurones in the paraventricular and supraoptic nuclei of the hypothalamus are reviewed, with a focus on the contributions of metabotropic glutamate receptors (mGluRs) to long‐lasting modifications in synaptic efficacy.

Glial Cells: Indispensable Partners of Hypothalamic Magnocellular Neurones
TL;DR: A third partner of the synapse, the astrocyte, has been shown to provide further control in the hypothalamo-neurohypophysial system as mentioned in this paper, where it was considered that only neurones could provide such adaptation and regulation.

TL;DR: Vasopressins are evolutionarily conserved peptide hormones as mentioned in this paper, which act as an antidiuretic and regulator of blood and cardiac flow essential for adapting to terrestrial environments.

Expression of c-fos protein in brain: metabolic mapping at the cellular level
TL;DR: Fos immunohistochemistry provides a cellular method to label polysynaptically activated neurons and thereby map functional pathways in response to polysynaptic activation.
Journal ArticleDOI
A potent and selective endogenous agonist for the mu-opiate receptor.
TL;DR: The discovery and isolation from brain of a peptide, endomorphin-1 (Tyr-Pro-Trp-Phe-NH2), which has the highest specificity and affinity for the µ receptor of any endogenous substance so far described and they maybe natural ligands for this receptor.
Journal ArticleDOI
The organization of noradrenergic pathways from the brainstem to the paraventricular and supraoptic nuclei in the rat
TL;DR: The autoradiographic material, and additional double-labeling experiments, were used to identify and to characterize projections that interconnect the A1, A2 and A6 regions, as well as possible projections from these cell groups to the spinal cord.

TL;DR: The extremely high concentrations and widespread distribution of neuropeptide Y in the central nervous system suggests a number of important physiological roles for this neurotransmitter candidate.
Journal ArticleDOI
Differential co-existence of neuropeptide Y (NPY)-like immunoreactivity with catecholamines in the central nervous system of the rat.
TL;DR: The findings indicate that central catecholamine neurons can be subdivided into distinct sub-groups based upon the coexistence of a specific peptide.
