Journal ArticleDOI
The osmotically and histamine-induced enhancement of the plasma vasopressin level is diminished by intracerebroventricularly administered orexin in rats.
Gyöngyi Kis,Andor H. Molnár,Leila Daruka,János Gardi,Kinga Rákosi,Ferenc László,F. A. László,Csaba Varga +7 more
TL;DR: The results suggest that the effects of the orexins on water consumption or blockade of the histamine and osmosis-induced VP level increase are mediated by the OX1 receptor.
Journal ArticleDOI
Differential role of specific cardiovascular neuropeptides in pain regulation: Relevance to cardiovascular diseases.
TL;DR: The present review discusses the regulation of the release, and mechanisms of the central and systemic actions of these peptides on the cardiovascular system in the context of their central and peripheral nociceptive and antinociception properties and considers the possibility that they may play a significant role in the modulation of pain in cardiovascular diseases.
Journal ArticleDOI
The Adaptive Brain: Glenn Hatton and the Supraoptic Nucleus
TL;DR: In December 2009, Glenn Hatton died, and neuroendocrinology lost a pioneer who had done much to forge the present understanding of the hypothalamus and whose productivity had not faded with the passing years.
Journal ArticleDOI
Perinatal exposure to organohalogen pollutants decreases vasopressin content and its mRNA expression in magnocellular neuroendocrine cells activated by osmotic stress in adult rats.

TL;DR: A1254 may interfere with the activation of AVP mRNA transcript levels and protein, causing a central dysfunction of vasopressinergic system, and perinatal exposure to A1254 disrupts the AVP system similarly in Wistar and SD rats.

Can homeostatic circuits learn and remember
Grant R. Gordon,Jaideep S. Bains +1 more
TL;DR: Based on the work reviewed here, a clearer picture of the synaptic and cellular mechanisms that allow autonomic pathways to learn and remember is seen.

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.
