AbstractMale rats treated with reserpine were motionless and ingested only a few of ten consecutive intraoral injections of a 1 M solution of sucrose. While injection of apomorphine, a dopamine agonist, stimulated locomotion and stereotyped sniffing in reserpinized rats, it did not reactivate ingestive responses. The non‐competitive N‐methyl‐D‐aspartate receptor an...... hiện toàn bộ
Sex‐Related Differences in Dendritic Branching of Cells in the Prefrontal Cortex of RatsJournal of Neuroendocrinology - Tập 3 Số 1 - Trang 95-99 - 1991

AbstractMale and female Sprague‐Dawley rats were given either gonadectomies or sham surgery on the day of birth. In adulthood they were sacrificed and prepared for Golgi‐Cox staining. Using a camera lucida technique, layer II/III pyramidal neurons were drawn in the anterior cingulate cortex areas 1 and 3 and the agranular insular cortex and the number of dendritic ...... hiện toàn bộ
Low Temperature Stimulates α‐Melanophore‐Stimulating Hormone Secretion and Inhibits Background Adaptation in Xenopus laevisJournal of Neuroendocrinology - Tập 16 Số 11 - Trang 894-905 - 2004

AbstractIt is well‐known that α‐melanophore‐stimulating hormone (α‐MSH) release from the amphibian pars intermedia (PI) depends on the light condition of the animal's background, permitting the animal to adapt the colour of its skin to background light intensity. In the present study, we carried out nine experiments on the effect of low temperature on this skin ada...... hiện toàn bộ
Brain‐Derived Neurotrophic Factor in the Brain of Xenopus laevis May Act as a Pituitary Neurohormone Together with MesotocinJournal of Neuroendocrinology - Tập 18 Số 6 - Trang 454-465 - 2006

AbstractBrain‐derived neurotrophic factor (BDNF), a member of the neurotrophin family, occurs abundantly in the brain, where it exerts a variety of neural functions. We previously demonstrated that BDNF also exists in the endocrine melanotroph cells in the intermediate lobe of the pituitary gland of the amphibian Xenopus laevis, suggestin...... hiện toàn bộ
Diurnal Change of Thyroid‐Stimulating Hormone mRNA Expression in the Rat Pars TuberalisJournal of Neuroendocrinology - Tập 19 Số 11 - Trang 839-846 - 2007

Thyroid‐stimulating hormone (TSH)‐producing cells (TSH cells), which account for a large fraction of the cells in the rat pars tuberalis (PT), have been found to express MT1 melatonin receptor and mammalian clock genes at high densities. Although these findings suggest that TSH production in the rat PT is regulated by melatonin and/or the biological clock, there have been no studies focusi...... hiện toàn bộ
Regulational Effect of Ghrelin on Growth Hormone Secretion from Perifused Rat Anterior Pituitary CellsJournal of Neuroendocrinology - Tập 14 Số 2 - Trang 156-162 - 2002

AbstractGhrelin, a novel growth hormone (GH)‐releasing peptide, was recently isolated from the rat stomach as an endogenous ligand to growth hormone secretagogue receptor (GHS‐R). Ghrelin specifically stimulates the release of GH from the rat anterior pituitary gland, but the regulational effect of ghrelin on GH secretion has not yet been clarified. We used a perif...... hiện toàn bộ
