Distinct Hypothalamic Paraventricular Nucleus Inputs to the Cingulate Cortex and Paraventricular Thalamic Nucleus Modulate Anxiety and Arousal [PDF]
Frontiers in Pharmacology, 2022 Insomnia and anxiety are two common clinical diseases that threaten people’s physical and mental health. Insomnia and anxiety may share some similar underlying neural circuit mechanisms in the brain.

Nature Communications, 2021 It is unclear how circadian signals from the suprachiasmatic nucleus (SCN) are decoded to generate daily rhythms in hormone release. Here, the authors show that daily corticosterone release depends on coordinated clock gene and neuronal activity rhythms ...

Efferent projections of prokineticin 2 expressing neurons in the mouse suprachiasmatic nucleus. [PDF]
PLoS ONE, 2009 The suprachiasmatic nucleus (SCN) in the hypothalamus is the predominant circadian clock in mammals. To function as a pacemaker, the intrinsic timing signal from the SCN must be transmitted to different brain regions.

Cytoarchitecture of the human paraventricular hypothalamic nucleus [PDF]
Medicinski pregled, 2009 Introduction. The significance of this research in terms of structure and biochemical processes in PVN contributes to further understanding of vital physiological processes from delivery and stress to delicate chemical processes that keep the hypothalamo-hypophysial axis in balance. Conclusion.

Ghrelin indirectly activates hypophysiotropic CRF neurons in rodents. [PDF]
PLoS ONE, 2012 Ghrelin is a stomach-derived hormone that regulates food intake and neuroendocrine function by acting on its receptor, GHSR (Growth Hormone Secretagogue Receptor). Recent evidence indicates that a key function of ghrelin is to signal stress to the brain.

Microglia‐Mediated Neuroimmune Response Regulates Cardiac Remodeling After Myocardial Infarction
Journal of the American Heart Association: Cardiovascular and Cerebrovascular Disease, 2023 Background Sympathetic hyperactivity contributes to pathological remodeling after myocardial infarction (MI). However, the mechanisms underlying the increase in sympathetic activity remain unknown.
