Journal of Neuroendocrinology, EarlyView.Abstract Poultry production is confronting real challenges, including a lofty projected high demand for animal proteins to feed the future, and the need to adapt to planetary boundaries (global warming) with limited natural resources (land, energy, water).

Polypeptide A9K at Nanoscale Carbon: Simulation Study [PDF]
, 2015 An amphiphilic nature of the surfactant-like peptides is responsible for their propensity to aggregate at the nanoscale. These peptides can be readily used for a non-covalent functionalization of nanoparticles and macromolecules. This work reports an observation of supramolecular ensembles consisting of ultrashort carbon nanotubes (USCNTs), graphene ...

Journal of Neuroendocrinology, EarlyView.Abstract The hypothalamic suprachiasmatic nucleus (SCN) hosts the central circadian pacemaker and regulates daily rhythms in physiology and behavior. The SCN is composed of peptidergic neuron populations expressing arginine vasopressin (AVP) and vasoactive intestinal polypeptide (VIP), as well as glial cells.

The Role of Arginine Vasopressin in Alcohol Tolerance
Annals of Medicine, 1990 Administration of the neuropeptide, arginine vasopressin, to animals that have acquired functional tolerance to ethanol will maintain such tolerance, even in the absence of further ethanol ingestion by the animals. In mice, this action of the peptide is mediated by central nervous system V1 receptors and requires intact brain noradrenergic systems ...

New Topics in Vasopressin Receptors and Approach to Novel Drugs: Vasopressin and Pain Perception
Journal of Pharmacological Sciences, 2009 Arginine vasopressin (AVP) activates three vasopressin receptors and it also has an agonistic activity on the oxytocin receptor. For an accurate description of the target receptor subtype(s) responsible for complex AVP and oxytocin actions, a careful ...

Transfusion, EarlyView.Abstract Background Hemorrhagic shock is the leading cause of preventable prehospital trauma deaths. While arginine vasopressin (AVP) is a well‐known hormone with vasopressor effects, its potential for hemodynamic stabilization in prehospital hemorrhagic shock remains underexplored.

Effects of Arginine Vasopressin on musical short-term memory
Frontiers in Psychology, 2013 Previous genetic studies showed an association between variations in the gene coding for the 1a receptor of the neuro-hormone arginine vasopressin (AVP) and musical working memory (WM).

Fusion of neurohypophyseal membranes in vitro [PDF]
, 1977 Freeze cleaving electron microscopy has shown that fusion of isolated secretory vesicles from bovine neurohypophyses was induced by Ca 2+ in micromolar concentrations. Mg 2+ and Sr 2+ were ineffective. Mg 2+ inhibited Ca 2+-induced fusion. In suspensions

Orexinergic neurons contribute to autonomic cardiovascular regulation for locomotor exercise
The Journal of Physiology, EarlyView.Abstract figure legend This study unveiled the essential role of the orexinergic nervous system in the central circuitry that transmits central command signals for locomotor exercise. We observed the excitation of orexinergic neurons by voluntary locomotor exercise in rats.
