Afferent Neuronal Control of Type-I Gonadotropin Releasing Hormone Neurons in the Human. [PDF]
Understanding the regulation of the human menstrual cycle represents an important ultimate challenge of reproductive neuroendocrine research. However, direct translation of information from laboratory animal experiments to the human is often complicated ...

Chapter 9 The neuropeptide concept
Publisher Summary Neuropeptides are endogenous substances present in nerve cells that are involved in nervous system function. Neuropeptides are synthesized in large precursor proteins, and several are formed in the same precursor such as adrenocorticotropic hormone (ACTH) and β-endorphin in proopiomelanocortin (POMC).

What doesn't kill you makes you stranger: Dipeptidyl peptidase-4 (CD26) proteolysis differentially modulates the activity of many peptide hormones and cytokines generating novel cryptic bioactive ligands [PDF]
Dipeptidyl peptidase 4 (DPP4) is an exopeptidase found either on cell surfaces where it is highly regulated in terms of its expression and surface availability (CD26) or in a free/circulating soluble constitutively available and intrinsically active form.

Immunohistochemical staining for tyrosine hydroxylase reveals the neurons forming the locus coeruleus complex in the pontine region of the brain of the Congo gray parrot. The appearance and parcellation of the locus coeruleus complex in birds shows many similarities, but also differences to that observed in mammals.

Objective Autoimmunity occurs due to the tactics between pathogenic and regulatory factors in systemic organs. Although inter‐organ communication has been demonstrated in various diseases, the effects of the crosstalk between the immune system and other organs on autoimmune disease is unknown.

Cognitive and Cerebral Aging Research in Autism: A Systematic Review on an Emerging Topic
ABSTRACT Aging in autism is an emerging and under‐explored area of research. This systematic review provides a comprehensive overview of studies on cognitive and both structural and functional cerebral aging in autism. A systematic search of PubMed and APA PsycInfo was conducted up to and including January 2024.

Deciphering the skeletal interoceptive circuitry to control bone homeostasis
This review introduces the skeletal interoceptive circuitry, covering the ascending signals from bone tissues to the brain (sensors), the central neural circuits that integrate this information and dispatch commands (CPU), and the descending pathways that regulate bone homeostasis (effectors).
