Possible role of adrenoceptors in the hypothalamic paraventricular nucleus in corticotropin-releasing factor-induced sympatho-adrenomedullary outflow in rats
AIMS A functional interaction between the corticotropin-releasing factor (CRF) system and noradrenergic neurons in the brain has been suggested. In the present study, we investigated the interrelationship between the central CRF-induced elevation of plasma catecholamines and adrenoceptor activation in the paraventricular nucleus of the hypothalamus (PVN) using urethane-anesthetized rats. MAIN...
متن کاملGlutamatergic innervation of corticotropin-releasing hormone- and thyrotropin-releasing hormone-synthesizing neurons in the hypothalamic paraventricular nucleus of the rat.
Glutamate plays a role in the central regulation of the hypothalamic-pituitary-adrenal (HPA) and thyroid (HPT) axes. Until the recent discovery of vesicular glutamate transporters (VGLUT1-3), there was no specific tool for the examination of the putative morphological relationship between the glutamatergic and the hypophysiotropic systems. Using antisera against VGLUT2, corticotropin-releasing ...
متن کاملCorticotrophin-releasing factor augments the I(H) in rat hypothalamic paraventricular nucleus parvocellular neurons in vitro.
The goal of this study was to characterize the effects of corticotrophin-releasing factor (CRF) on rat paraventricular nucleus (PVN) putative parvocellular neurons using whole cell patch-clamp recordings and single-cell reverse transcription-multiplex polymerase chain reaction (single-cell RT-mPCR) techniques. Under current clamp, CRF (10-600 nM) increased the neuronal basal firing rate and dep...
متن کاملCorticotropin releasing factor excites neurons of posterior hypothalamic nucleus to produce tachycardia in rats
Corticotropin releasing factor (CRF), a peptide hormone involved in the stress response, holds a key position in cardiovascular regulation. Here, we report that the central effect of CRF on cardiovascular activities is mediated by the posterior hypothalamic nucleus (PH), an important structure responsible for stress-induced cardiovascular changes. Our present results demonstrate that CRF direct...
متن کاملPRL-releasing peptide inhibits food intake in male rats via the dorsomedial hypothalamic nucleus and not the paraventricular hypothalamic nucleus.
PRL-releasing peptide inhibits food intake after intracerebroventricular injection. PRL-releasing peptide immunoreactivity is found in several hypothalamic nuclei involved in feeding, with highest levels in the paraventricular and dorsomedial hypothalamic nuclei. The aim of this study was to examine the effect of PRL-releasing peptide on food intake after administration into these nuclei. Parav...
