Brain Sciences, 2021 The hypothalamic-pituitary-adrenal (HPA) axis is involved in the pathophysiology of many neuropsychiatric disorders. Increased HPA axis activity can be observed during chronic stress, which plays a key role in the pathophysiology of depression ...

Reelin, the HPA Axis, and Chronic Stress: Implications for the Neurobiology of Depression [PDF]
Chronic StressStress and associated dysregulation of the hypothalamic-pituitary-adrenal (HPA) axis is central to major depression etiology, as HPA axis hyperactivity and hypercortisolism are common occurrences in individuals with depression.

Bouncing back - trauma and the HPA-axis in healthy adults [PDF]
European Journal of Psychotraumatology, 2010 Dysregulation of the hypothalamic–pituitary–adrenal (HPA)-axis is thought to underlie stress-related psychiatric disorders such as posttraumatic stress disorder (PTSD). Some studies have reported HPA-axis dysregulation in trauma-exposed (TE)

The HPA Axis as Target for Depression
Current NeuropharmacologyAbstract: Major depressive disorder (MDD) is a stress-related mental disorder with a lifetime prevalence of 20% and, thus, is one of the most prevalent mental health disorders worldwide. Many studies with a large number of patients support the notion that abnormalities of the hypothalamus-pituitaryadrenal (HPA) axis are crucial for the development of ...

The different roles of glucocorticoids in the hippocampus and hypothalamus in chronic stress-induced HPA axis hyperactivity. [PDF]
PLoS ONE, 2014 Hypothalamus-pituitary-adrenal (HPA) hyperactivity is observed in many patients suffering from depression and the mechanism underling the dysfunction of HPA axis is not well understood.

Can variation in hypothalamic-pituitary-adrenal (HPA)-axis activity explain the relationship between depression and cognition in bipolar patients? [PDF]
PLoS ONE, 2012 Dysregulation of the hypothalamic-pituitary-adrenal (HPA) axis is thought to be associated with more mood symptoms and worse cognitive functioning. This study examined whether variation in HPA axis activity underlies the association between mood symptoms

Dream Recall/Affect and the Hypothalamic–Pituitary–Adrenal Axis
Clocks & Sleep, 2021 In this concise review, we present an overview of research on dream recall/affect and of the hypothalamic–pituitary–adrenal (HPA) axis, discussing caveats regarding the action of hormones of the HPA axis (mainly cortisol and its free form, cortisol ...

Chronic stress suppresses the expression of cutaneous hypothalamic-pituitary-adrenocortical axis elements and melanogenesis. [PDF]
PLoS ONE, 2014 Chronic stress can affect skin function, and some skin diseases might be triggered or aggravated by stress. Stress can activate the central hypothalamic-pituitary-adrenocortical (HPA) axis, which causes glucocorticoid levels to increase. The skin has HPA

What’s new on the HPA axis? [PDF]
Intensive Care Medicine, 2015 The human body depends on an integrated neuro-endocrine response in order to adapt to external and internal stressors. In critical illness this stress response coordinates endocrine, neural, cardiovascular and immune systems with the aim to maximize survival chances.
