Estrogenic Action in Stress-Induced Neuroendocrine Regulation of Energy Homeostasis

open access: yesCells, 2022
Estrogens are among important contributing factors to many sex differences in neuroendocrine regulation of energy homeostasis induced by stress. Research in this field is warranted since chronic stress-related psychiatric and metabolic disturbances ...

Modulation of the hypothalamic-pituitary-adrenal axis of an Arctic-breeding polygynandrous songbird, the Smith's longspur, Calcarius pictus

open access: yes, 2003
To successfully reproduce in the Arctic, birds must modulate their neuroendocrine and behavioural systems. These adjustments include an attenuation of the stress responsiveness of the hypothalamic-pituitary-adrenal (HPA) axis to external stimuli and a ...

Amuc_1473 Links Gut Microbes to Skeletal Homeostasis and Counteracts Multifactorial Osteoporosis

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
Amuc_1473, a previously uncharacterized protein enriched in Akkermansia muciniphila‐derived extracellular vesicles, is identified as a gut–bone messenger that promotes osteogenesis and inhibits osteoclastogenesis by engaging transcriptional and translational regulators in bone cells.

Impact of stress on male fertility: role of gonadotropin inhibitory hormone

open access: yesFrontiers in Endocrinology
Studies have implicated oxidative stress-sensitive signaling in the pathogenesis of stress-induced male infertility. However, apart from oxidative stress, gonadotropin inhibitory hormone (GnIH) plays a major role.

Modeling pulsativity in the hypothalamic–pituitary–adrenal hormonal axis

open access: yesScientific Reports, 2022
A new mathematical model for biological rhythms in the hypothalamic–pituitary–adrenal (HPA) axis is proposed. This model takes the form of a system of impulsive time-delay differential equations which include pulsatile release of adrenocorticotropin ...

The Local Neuropeptide System of Keratinocytes

open access: yesBiomedicines, 2021
Neuropeptides have been known for over 50 years as chemical signals in the brain. However, it is now well established that the synthesis of this class of peptides is not restricted to neurons. For example, human skin not only expresses several functional

The effect of therapeutic glucocorticoids on the adrenal response in a randomized controlled trial in patients with rheumatoid arthritis

open access: yes, 2005
Objective To measure the effect of low-dose systemic glucocorticoid treatment on the adrenal response to adrenocorticotropic hormone (ACTH) in patients with rheumatoid arthritis (RA).

Impairment of adrenocortical function associated with increased plasma tumor necrosis factor-alpha and interleukin 6 concentrations in African trypanosomiasis [PDF]

open access: yes, 1994
African sleeping sickness (SS) is a severe, potentially lethal parasitic disease. The treatments of choice are the antiparasitic agents suramin, which is adrenotoxic, and/or melarsoprol. We evaluated the functional integrity of the hypothalamic-pituitary-

Paternal Caffeine Exposure Programs Offspring Stress Vulnerability via Sperm Dlk1‐Dio3 Imprinting‐Directed Remodeling of a Novel Neural Circuit

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
The study elucidates that paternal preconception stress can drive offspring hyperresponsivity of the stress system via hypomethylation of a specific DNA region in sperm. This key link is confirmed in a cohort of prospective fathers: the epigenetic alteration is associated with elevated stress hormone levels.

Stress-Induced Neurodegeneration: The Potential for Coping as Neuroprotective Therapy

open access: yesAmerican Journal of Alzheimer's Disease and Other Dementias, 2020
Stress responses are essential for survival, but become detrimental to health and cognition with chronic activation. Chronic hypothalamic-pituitary-adrenal axis release of glucocorticoids induces hypothalamic-pituitary-adrenal axis dysfunction and ...
