Dynamism of chemoarchitecture in the hypothalamic paraventricular nucleus
Brain Research Bulletin, 1988 The hypothalamic paraventricular nucleus (PVN) has been implicated in a remarkable number of functions including control of pituitary-adrenocortical activity in response to stress, body fluid homeostasis, milk ejection reflex, prolactin secretion, thyroid hormone secretion, analgesia, food intake, gastrointestinal functions, cardiovascular functions ...

Orexin depolarizes rat hypothalamic paraventricular nucleus neurons [PDF]
American Journal of Physiology-Regulatory, Integrative and Comparative Physiology, 2001 Orexins, also called hypocretins, are newly discovered hypothalamic peptides that are thought to be involved in various physiological functions. In spite of the fact that orexin receptors, especially orexin receptor 2, are abundant in the hypothalamic paraventricular nucleus (PVN), the effects of orexins on PVN neurons remain unknown.

Local Corticotropin-Releasing Factor Signaling in the Hypothalamic Paraventricular Nucleus [PDF]
The Journal of Neuroscience, 2018 Corticotropin-releasing factor (CRF) neurons in the hypothalamic paraventricular nucleus (PVN) initiate hypothalamic–pituitary–adrenal axis activity through the release of CRF into the portal system as part of a coordinated neuroendocrine, autonomic, and behavioral response to stress.

The orexigenic effect of ghrelin is mediated through central activation of the endogenous cannabinoid system. [PDF]
PLoS ONE, 2008 Ghrelin and cannabinoids stimulate appetite, this effect possibly being mediated by the activation of hypothalamic AMP-activated protein kinase (AMPK), a key enzyme in appetite and metabolism regulation.

Role of the hypothalamic paraventricular nucleus in anxiety disorders
Stress and Brain, 2022 The hypothalamic paraventricular nucleus (PVN) expresses multiple neuropeptides and plays an essential role in several physiological processes. Among the brain areas directly projecting to the PVN are deep brain structures closely related to instinctive ...

Organotypic slice culture of the hypothalamic paraventricular nucleus of rat [PDF]
Journal of Veterinary Science, 2007 Organotypic slice cultures have been developed as an alternative to acute brain slices because the neuronal viability and synaptic connectivity in these cultures can be preserved well for a prolonged period of time. This study evaluated a stationary organotypic slice culture developed for the hypothalamic paraventricular nucleus (PVN) of rat.

Electrophysiological Effects of Ghrelin in the Hypothalamic Paraventricular Nucleus Neurons
Frontiers in Cellular Neuroscience, 2018 The paraventricular nucleus (PVN) is involved in the control of sympathetic tone and the secretion of hormones, both functions known to be influenced by ghrelin, suggesting direct effect of ghrelin in this nucleus.

Cardiovascular responses to chemical stimulation of the hypothalamic arcuate nucleus in the rat: role of the hypothalamic paraventricular nucleus. [PDF]
PLoS ONE, 2012 The mechanism of cardiovascular responses to chemical stimulation of the hypothalamic arcuate nucleus (ARCN) was studied in urethane-anesthetized adult male Wistar rats.

Feeding inhibition by urocortin in the rat hypothalamic paraventricular nucleus
American Journal of Physiology-Regulatory, Integrative and Comparative Physiology, 2001 Ventricular administration of urocortin (UCN) inhibits feeding, but specific site(s) of UCN action are unknown. In the current studies we examined the effect of UCN in the hypothalamic paraventricular nucleus (PVN) on feeding. We tested UCN administered into the PVN in several paradigms: deprivation-induced, nocturnal, and neuropeptide Y (NPY)-induced
