Pituitary and hypothalamic physiology.
نویسنده
چکیده
Professor P. M. Daniel has described in the first paper the nervous pathways connecting the hypothalamus to the posterior pituitary and how the posterior pituitary merely stores the hormones vasopressin, oxytocin (which has no clearly defined function in man), and neurophysin, the large molecule or molecules which bind the other hormones. For many years the anterior pituitary was thought to be very different but recently it has been realised that conceptually it is quite similar.

The effect of immobilization stress on the HPG axis (hypothalamic - pituitary - gonad) hormones and the number of spermatogonia
Background & Objective: Stress has different effects on the living organisms. In this study the effect of immobilization stress the HPG (hypothalamic - pituitary - gonad axis) hormones secretion and the number of spermatogonia was studied in adult male rats Materials & Methods: 30 male rats were divided into 3 groups. The Control group: who were not exposed to any kind of stress, and two exper...
متن کاملEffects of Crocin on The Pituitary-Gonadal Axis and Hypothalamic Kiss-1 Gene Expression in Female Wistar Rats
Background: Saffron (Crocus sativus L.) is traditionally used as a spice for coloring and flavoring in cooking in some countries. One of the main component of saffron is Crocin. Recent researches have shown Crocin has various pharmacological effects. The aim of this study was to assess the effect of Crocin on the Pituitary-Gonadal Axis and Kiss-1 gene expression in hypothalamus and also ovarian...
متن کاملToward Multifactorial Hypothalamic Regulation of Anterior Pituitary Hormone Secretion.
The hypothalamus regulates the secretion of anterior pituitary hormones via release of releasing hormones into the hypophysial portal vasculature. Additional neuromessengers act at the pituitary to modulate responses to the hypothalamic hormones. For example, neuropeptide Y enhances the effect of gonadotropin-releasing hormone and the response to the prolactin-inhibiting hormone dopamine.
متن کاملThe effect of 17 days exposure to static magnetic fields on the hypothalamic-pituitary-gonadal axis in the male rat
Power stations produce a range of magnetic fields more than 20 mT which are harmful to those working or living around them. Several investigators have reported an increased health risk due to exposure to electric and magnetic fields (EMF) at 50 and 60 Hz. Several studies have been reported especially with increased tumor incidence, effects on reproduction and development, and neural and behavio...
متن کاملThe Role of the Endocannabinoids in Suppression of the Hypothalamic- pituitary-adrenal Axis Activity by Doxepin
Objective(s) The mechanism(s) by which antidepressants regulate the hypothalamic-pituitary-adrenal (HPA) axis remain elusive. The endocannabinoid system (eCBs) which exhibits antidepressant potential, appears to regulate the HPA axis activity. Therefore, we aimed to investigate the role of the eCBs in the action of doxepin including its effect on the HPA axis. Materials and Methods Male Wist...
