Chronic stress plasticity in the hypothalamic paraventricular nucleus [PDF]
Proper integration and execution of the physiological stress response is essential for maintaining homoeostasis. Stress responses are controlled in large part by the paraventricular nucleus (PVN) of the hypothalamus, which contains three functionally distinct neural populations that modulate multiple stress effectors: (1) hypophysiotrophic PVN neurons ...

Electroacupuncture (EA) point specific (ST36-37) stimulation decreases cardiovascular reflex responses through supraspinal regions such as the hypothalamic paraventricular nucleus (PVN) while mechanical stimulation of acupoints decreases pressor ...

ABSTRACT The paraventricular nucleus (PVN) plays a central role in neuroendocrine and autonomic regulation, including male sexual behaviour. Dopaminergic and nitrergic signalling within the PVN are functionally linked, but their cellular relationship remains unclear.

Abstract Background and Purpose Noise pollution, particularly by aircraft, is a significant risk factor for cardiovascular disease. Aircraft noise activates stress response pathways in the brain, via the amygdala, the sympathetic nervous system and the hypothalamic–pituitary–adrenal axis.

GR‐A knockin mice were generated that express the classic full‐length glucocorticoid receptor (GR‐A) but lack the highly conserved translational isoforms GR‐B, GR‐C1, GR‐C2, GR‐C3, GR‐D1, GR‐D2, and GR‐D3 that have progressively shorter N‐terminal transactivation domains (NTDs).

Stress, stress systems, and Alzheimer's disease
Abstract Stress is increasingly recognized as an important, modifiable factor for Alzheimer's disease (AD), yet its roles in initiation, progression, and outcomes remain incompletely elucidated. Epidemiologic studies link chronic stress, early‐life adversity, and trauma to increased AD risk, while experimental models have uncovered mechanisms by which ...

Functional Segregation of Epileptogenicity within the Human Amygdala
Objective In temporal lobe epilepsy (TLE), the amygdala in the epileptogenic network is underestimated compared to other regions such as the hippocampus. Recent advances in anatomical neuroimaging and stereoelectroencephalography (SEEG) signal analyses could help better understand the involvement of the different amygdala nuclei in the genesis of ...
