Nitric oxide synthase-containing neurons in the human hypothalamus: reduced number of immunoreactive cells in the paraventricular nucleus of depressive patients and schizophrenics

open access: yes, 1998
The neuroanatomical distribution of nitric oxide synthase-immunoreactive neurons was investigated in post mortem hypothalami of 10 patients suffering from schizophrenia, eight patients with depression and 13 matched control cases.

Extra-cellular dopamine increases in the paraventricular nucleus of male rats during sexual activity

open access: yes, 2003
Dopamine and 3,4-dihydroxyphenylacetic acid (DOPAC) concentrations were measured in the dialysate obtained with vertical microdialysis probes implanted into the paraventricular nucleus of the hypothalamus of sexually potent male rats.

Rostrocaudal distribution of retrogradely FG-labeled neurons in the hypothalamus after a large FG injection into the Sp5C.

open access: yes, 2013
A: Semi-schematic drawings of coronal sections at different levels, from -1.8 to -4.5 mm posterior to bregma. Retrogradely FG-labeled neurons in the hypothalamus and adjacent areas are indicated by red dots.

Oxytocin-immunoreactive Neurons in the Paraventricular Nucleus of the Hypothalamus in Hetercephalus glaber: A Quantitative Analysis [PDF]

open access: yes, 2011
The naked mole-rat (Heterocephalus glaber) demonstrates a strict social and reproductive hierarchy. Oxytocin (OXT) is a peptide hormone that acts both peripherally and centrally in the regulation of a number of sexual and social behaviours. The main area

Interconnectivity of sympathetic and sleep networks is mediated through reduction of gamma aminobutyric acidergic inhibition in the paraventricular nucleus

open access: yes, 2014
Chronic short sleep duration has been linked to sympathoexcitation and increased risk of cardiovascular disease. the central nervous system plays an important role in the regulation of sympathetic activity.

The paraventricular nucleus of the hypothalamus: a key node in the control of behavioural states

open access: yesThe Journal of Physiology
AbstractThe paraventricular nucleus (PVN) of the hypothalamus contains diverse populations of neuropeptide‐producing neurons. These include neurons that synthesise oxytocin, vasopressin, corticotropin‐releasing hormone, thyrotropin‐releasing hormone and somatostatin.

The role of oxytocin and the paraventricular nucleus in the sexual behaviour of male mammals

open access: yes, 2004
The paraventricular nucleus of the hypothalamus contains the cell bodies of a group of oxytocinergic neurons projecting to extrahypothalamic brain areas and to the spinal cord, which are involved in the control of erectile function and copulation.

Exercise and ER stress in hypothalamus.

open access: yes, 2013
Overnutrition increases hypothalamic activation of IKKβ/NF-κB and ER stress (they enhance each other), which leads to insulin and leptin resistance in the hypothalamus, hyperphagia, and obesity.

Characterization of Perineuronal Nets in the Paraventricular Nucleus of the Hypothalamus and their Alteration in Neurogenic Hypertension

open access: yesCellular and Molecular Neurobiology
Abstract Perineuronal nets (PNNs) are key regulators of neuronal excitability, yet whether they are altered during neurogenic hypertension is unknown. Here, we mapped the developmental trajectory of PNNs in the paraventricular nucleus of the hypothalamus (PVN), a crucial nucleus involved in blood pressure (BP) regulation, and examined

Participation of NMDA and kainate receptors of paraventricular nucleus in cardiovascular responses to glutamate receptor agonist

open access: yes, 2000
The nuclei of the hypothalamus have been shown to be involved in central cardiovascular homeostasis. Recent studies suggest that glutamate-containing neurons have an important role in the regulation of central cardiovascular function.
