Characterizing the postnatal hypothalamic–pituitary–adrenal axis response of in utero heat stressed pigs at 10 and 15 weeks of age

open access: yesScientific Reports, 2021
In utero heat stress alters postnatal physiological and behavioral stress responses in pigs. However, the mechanisms underlying these alterations have not been determined.

The Role of Corticotropin-Releasing Hormone at Peripheral Nociceptors: Implications for Pain Modulation

open access: yesBiomedicines, 2020
Peripheral nociceptors and their synaptic partners utilize neuropeptides for signal transmission. Such communication tunes the excitatory and inhibitory function of nociceptor-based circuits, eventually contributing to pain modulation.

Corticotropin-releasing factor receptor signaling and modulation: implications for stress response and resilience

open access: yesTrends in Psychiatry and Psychotherapy, 2020
Introduction In addition to their role in regulation of the hypothalamic-pituitary-adrenal-axis, corticotropin-releasing factor (CRF) and its related peptides, the urocortins, are important mediators of physiological and pathophysiological processes of ...

Epigenetic Changes in the CRH Gene are Related to Severity of Suicide Attempt and a General Psychiatric Risk Score in Adolescents

open access: yesEBioMedicine, 2018
The aim of this study, comprising 88 suicide attempters, was to identify hypothalamic-pituitary-adrenal (HPA) -axis coupled CpG-sites showing methylation shifts linked to severity of the suicide attempt.

“Reproductive” Corticotropin‐Releasing Hormone

open access: yesAnnals of the New York Academy of Sciences, 2006
Abstract:  Corticotropin‐releasing hormone (CRH), a 41 amino acid peptide, is an important regulatory molecule synthesized by neurons of the parvocellular and magnocellular hypothalamic paraventricular nuclei. It acts as the major physiologic corticotropin (ACTH) secretagogue. The CRH gene is located in humans on chromosome 8.

Corticotropin releasing hormone as an identifier of bronchiolitis obliterans syndrome

open access: yesScientific Reports, 2022
Lung transplantion (LTx) recipients have low long-term survival and a high incidence of bronchiolitis obliterans syndrome (BOS), an inflammation of the small airways in chronic rejection of a lung allograft.

Regulation of corticotropin releasing hormone receptor type 1 messenger RNA level in Y-79 retinoblastoma cells: potential implications for human stress response and immune/inflammatory reaction

open access: yesMediators of Inflammation, 1996
We report the regulation of type 1 receptor mRNA in Y-79 human retinoblastoma cells, grown in the absence or presence of pharmacological levels of phorbol esters, forskolin, glucocorticoids and their combinations.

Mechanism of Anticonvulsant Action of ACTH

open access: yesPediatric Neurology Briefs, 2001
The hypothesis that systemic or intraventricular administration of corticotropin (ACTH) acts directly on limbic neurons to modulate corticotropin-releasing hormone (CRH) gene expression, independently of adrenal stimulation, was tested and confirmed in ...
