NEUROENDOCRINOLOGY OF STRESS

Endocrinology and Metabolism Clinics of North America, 2001
Stimuli that are interpreted by the brain as extreme or threatening, regardless of their modality, elicit an immediate stereotypic response characterized by enhanced cognition, affective immobility, vigilance, autonomic arousal and a global catabolic state.

Testosterone administration in human social neuroendocrinology: Past, present, and future.

Hormones and Behavior, 2020
Over the past 20 years, social neuroendocrinology researchers have developed pharmacological challenge paradigms to assess the extent to which testosterone plays a causal role in human psychological and behavioural processes. The current paper provides a

The Neuroendocrinology of Puberty

Hospital Practice, 1980
The endocrine events that we recognize as adolescent puberty actually begin early in fetal life. The natural history of these developments and the "switches" that turn them on and off are reviewed in terms of both normal and abnormal maturation of sexual function and are related to potential therapeutic approaches.

Metals, autoimmunity, and neuroendocrinology: Is there a connection?

Environmental Research, 2020
It has been demonstrated that metals can induce autoimmunity. However, few studies have attempted to assess and elucidate the underlying mechanisms of action. Recent research has tried to evaluate the possible interactions of the immune system with metal

Neuroendocrinology of the Thymus

Hormone Research, 2008
The neuropeptides oxytocin (OT) and vasopressin (VP) are synthesized in the human thymus in a similar way as in the hypothalamo-neurohypophyseal system. Immunocytochemistry with polyclonal and monoclonal antibodies revealed that immunoreactive OT- and VP-producing cells are localized in the subcapsular cortex and medulla of human and murine thymuses ...

Gastrointestinal neuroendocrinology

Veterinary Clinics of North America: Equine Practice, 2002
There exists individual enteroendocrine cells spread throughout the gastrointestinal mucosa that release specific peptide, as well as nonpeptide, hormones to have various endocrine action on target cells bearing cell surface receptors selectively sensitive to these regulatory substances.

THE NEUROENDOCRINOLOGY OF OBESITY

Endocrinology and Metabolism Clinics of North America, 2001
The regulation of energy balance is enormously complex, with numerous genetic, hormonal, neural/behavioral, and societal influences. Although the current epidemic of obesity has its underpinnings in the changes in culture during the last half century, the role of the neuroendocrine system in the genesis of obesity is physiologically and therapeutically

The neuroendocrinology of mania

Journal of Affective Disorders, 1985
The paper reviews the endocrine findings in manic patients and the effects of treatment, as well as the association between endocrine conditions or hormonal treatments and abnormal states of elation resembling mania. The findings are discussed in relation to hypotheses about the neurochemical basis of mania, particularly the mesolimbic dopamine ...
