How developmental stressors affect mitochondrial respiratory function: a systematic review and meta‐analysis

open access: yesBiological Reviews, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT The environmental conditions organisms experience during early development can have powerful and sustained effects on morphology, physiology, behaviour, and performance. Such developmental effects can influence reproductive success, survival, and life‐history strategies and can be transmitted across generations (i.e.

Stress-induced behaviors require the corticotropin-releasing hormone (CRH) receptor, but not CRH [PDF]

open access: yesProceedings of the National Academy of Sciences, 1999
Corticotropin-releasing hormone (CRH) is a central regulator of the hormonal stress response, causing stimulation of corticotropin and glucocorticoid secretion. CRH is also widely believed to mediate stress-induced behaviors, implying a broader, integrative role for the hormone in the psychological stress response.

Changes in placental CRH, urocortins, and CRH-receptor mRNA expression associated with preterm delivery and chorioamnionitis

open access: yes, 2011
Context: The pathogenesis of preterm delivery (PTD) is not clear, although inflammation/infection play a major role. Corticotropin releasing-hormone (CRH) and Urocortins (Ucns) are involved in the pathophysiology of PTD.

CYP2D6‐Guided Opioid Therapy for Chronic Pain: A Multi‐Center Pragmatic Randomized Controlled Trial

open access: yesClinical Pharmacology &Therapeutics, EarlyView.
The analgesic effectiveness of several opioids depends on CYP2D6‐mediated metabolism to more active opioid receptor agonists. CYP2D6 activity is impacted by genetic variability and medications that inhibit CYP2D6. We conducted a pragmatic, multi‐center, randomized, controlled trial to determine whether CYP2D6‐guided opioid prescribing improves chronic ...

Corticotropin-releasing hormone, its binding protein and receptors in human cervical tissue at preterm and term labor in comparison to non-pregnant state

open access: yesReproductive Biology and Endocrinology, 2006
Background Preterm birth is still the leading cause of neonatal morbidity and mortality. The level of corticotropin-releasing hormone (CRH) is known to be significantly elevated in the maternal plasma at preterm birth. Although, CRH, CRH-binding protein (

Expression profiling identifies the CRH/CRH-R1 system as a modulator of neurovascular gene activity.

open access: yes, 2007
Corticotropin-releasing hormone receptor type 1 (CRH-R1)-deficient mice display reduced anxiety-like behavior, a chronic corticosterone deficit, and an impaired neuroendocrine stress response caused by disruption of the hypothalamic-pituitary ...

A Pilot Randomized Study of NAT2 and YEATS4 Pharmacogenetic Return of Results in Adults with Hypertension and African Ancestry: The GUARDD‐US PGx Study

open access: yesClinical Pharmacology &Therapeutics, EarlyView.
Almost half of individuals with hypertension fail to achieve recommended blood pressure (BP) goals. Pharmacogenetic gene‐drug interactions may alter the efficacy of antihypertensive agents. We conducted a multicenter randomized controlled sub‐study of participants (N = 1874) with hypertension and self‐reported African ancestry to determine whether ...

An assessment of stigma and human right violations among men who have sex with men in Abuja, Nigeria

open access: yesBMC International Health and Human Rights, 2019
Background There have been several barriers in effectively engaging men who have sex with men for STI/HIV prevention and treatment programming in Nigeria including social stigma, policies, and laws criminalizing same-sex practices.

Corticotropin-releasing hormone (CRH)-induced thyrotropin release is directly mediated through CRH receptor type 2 on thyrotropes

open access: yes, 2003
CRH is known as the main stimulator of ACTH release. In representatives of all nonmammalian vertebrates, CRH has also been shown to induce TSH secretion, acting directly at the level of the pituitary.
