Reduced expression of CRH receptor type 1 in upper segment human myometrium during labour [PDF]
Background Corticotropin-releasing hormone (CRH) and CRH-related peptide are shown to modulate uterine contractility through two CRH receptor subtype, CRH-R1 and CRH-R2 during pregnancy.

Structural characterisation of a cyprinid (Cyprinus carpio L.) CRH, CRH-BP and CRH-R1, and the role of these proteins in the acute stress response [PDF]
Abstract We elucidated the structure of the principle factors regulating the initiation of the acute stress response in common carp: corticotrophin-releasing hormone (CRH), CRH-receptor 1 (CRH-R1) and CRH-binding protein (CRH-BP). Phylogenetic analyses reveal that these proteins are evolutionarily well conserved in vertebrates.

CRH Receptors in Human Reproduction
Corticotropin releasing hormone (CRH), the main peptide-mediator of stress, has been found in the female reproductive system.Herein, the role of CRH receptors in the female reproductive system is presented.It is clear that CRH receptors are involved in the regulation of the hypothalamic-pituitaryovarian axis, while locally are associated with ...

CRH Promotes the Neurogenic Activity of Neural Stem Cells in the Adult Hippocampus
Summary: Local cues in the adult neurogenic niches dynamically regulate homeostasis in neural stem cells, whereas their identity and associated molecular mechanisms remain poorly understood.

MOLECULAR EVOLUTION OF GPCRS: CRH/CRH receptors [PDF]
Corticotrophin-releasing hormone (CRH) is the pivotal neuroendocrine peptide hormone associated with the regulation of the stress response in vertebrates. However, CRH-like peptides are also found in a number of invertebrate species. The origin of this peptide can be traced to a common ancestor of lineages leading to chordates and to arthropods ...

Μελέτη έκφρασης των υποδοχέων CRH-R1 και CRH-R2 της ορμόνης CRH σε ανθρώπινες βλαστοκύστεις
CRH (Corticotrophin Releasing Hormone) is a 41 amino acid neuropeptide, firstly isolated from sheep hypothalamus. CRH is basicly implicated in the regulation of the secretion of ACTH (Adrenocorticotropic hormone) from pituitary gland and is widely dispersed in the brain, thus orchestrating endocrinological and behavioral Autonomous Nervous System (ANS)

Differential Expression of CRH, UCN, CRHR1 and CRHR2 in Eutopic and Ectopic Endometrium of Women with Endometriosis. [PDF]
Endometriosis is considered as a benign aseptic inflammatory disease, characterised by the presence of ectopic endometrium-like tissue. Its symptoms (mostly pain and infertility) are reported as constant stressors.

The combined dexamethasone/CRH Test (DEX/CRH test) and prediction of acute treatment response in major depression. [PDF]
In this study the predictive value of the combined dexamethasone/CRH test (DEX/CRH test) for acute antidepressant response was investigated. In 114 depressed inpatients suffering from unipolar or bipolar depression (sample 1) the DEX/CRH test was ...
