The Hormones of the Hypothalamus

The American Journal of Medicine, 1974
Publisher Summary This chapter discusses the hypothalamic hormones that are known as the latest newcomers to the field of endocrinology. These hormones represent the ultimate link between the central nervous system and the endocrine system as the two integrating orders of all homeostasis of the organism.

The hypothalamus and reproduction

American Journal of Obstetrics and Gynecology, 1972
Abstract This article has been designed to review recent developments in the field of hypothalamic hormones involved in the control of reproductive functions. A brief resume of early physiologic and anatomic studies was presented initially to give a better understanding of the concept of hypothalamic regulation of the release of gonadotropic hormones ...

Impact of gender, menstrual cycle phase, and oral contraceptives on the activity of the hypothalamus-pituitary-adrenal axis.

Psychosomatic Medicine, 1999
OBJECTIVE Results from animal and human studies suggest that disregulations of the hypothalamus-pituitary-adrenal (HPA) axis are involved in several behavioral, circulatory, endocrine, and immune disorders with clear-cut gender differences in disease ...

Hypothalamus and headaches

Neurological Sciences, 2007
The hypothalamus forms part of the central autonomic network, regulating body homeostasis and controlling pain. To this effect, it is strongly wired to more rostral and caudal areas, in particular the brainstem periaqueductal grey, the locus coeruleus and the median raphe nuclei, all involved in autonomic and sleep mechanisms and also in the descending

Hypothalamus-Pituitary-Thyroid Axis.

Comprehensive Physiology, 2016
The hypothalamus-pituitary-thyroid (HPT) axis determines the set point of thyroid hormone (TH) production. Hypothalamic thyrotropin-releasing hormone (TRH) stimulates the synthesis and secretion of pituitary thyrotropin (thyroid-stimulating hormone, TSH),

The Hypothalamus

Neonatal Network, 2000
The hypothalamus is an integral part of the neuroendocrine system. The anatomy, embryologic development, and normal function of the hypothalamus are described here. Pathophysiology of congenital abnormalities and brain injury is discussed and a case study examined. In addition, nursing implications of caring for such an infant are addressed.

MicroRNAs in the hypothalamus

Best Practice & Research Clinical Endocrinology & Metabolism, 2016
The brain is considered a major site for microRNA (miRNA) expression; as evidenced by several studies reporting microarray data of different brain substructures. The hypothalamus is among the brain regions that plays a crucial role in integrating signals from other brain nuclei as well as environmental, hormonal, metabolic and neuronal signals from the

The Hormones of the Hypothalamus

Scientific American, 1972
The isolation and synthesis of thyroid stimulating hormone-releasing factor (TRF or TSH-RF) and luteinizing hormone releasing factor (LH-RF) are discussed. Hypothalamic fragments of sheep brains were the source f rom which 1 mg of TRF was first extracted characterized and synthesize d.

The Hypothalamus

2013
The hypothalamus is a small, anatomical region of the diencephalon that is separated superiorly from the dorsal thalamus by the hypothalamic sulcus. The rostral boundary of the hypothalamus is the lamina terminalis. The lateral boundary of the hypothalamus is formed rostrally by the substantia innominata and caudally by the medial edge of the posterior
