Identification of sex hormone-binding globulin in the human hypothalamus [PDF]
, 2005 Gonadal steroids are known to influence hypothalamic functions through both genomic and non-genomic pathways. Sex hormone-binding globulin ( SHBG) may act by a non-genomic mechanism independent of classical steroid receptors.

Neonatal overfeeding attenuates acute central pro-inflammatory effects of short-term high fat diet
Frontiers in Neuroscience, 2015 Neonatal obesity predisposes individuals to obesity throughout life. In rats, neonatal overfeeding also leads to early accelerated weight gain that persists into adulthood.

Biomolecules, 2023 The orexin system is related to food behavior, energy balance, wakefulness and the reward system. It consists of the neuropeptides orexin A and B, and their receptors, orexin 1 receptor (OX1R) and orexin 2 receptor (OX2R). OX1R has selective affinity for

PLoS ONE, 2012 The endoplasmic reticulum localised protein seipin, encoded by the gene Berardinelli-Seip congenital lipodystrophy type 2 (BSCL2), serves a critical but poorly defined function in the physiology of both adipose and neural tissue. In humans, BSCL2 loss-of-

Location-specific activation of the paraventricular nucleus of the hypothalamus by localized inflammation [PDF]
Brain, Behavior, and Immunity, 2010 The existence of an immunological homunculus has been proposed, but evidence for location-specific response of the central nervous system to immunological stimulation is lacking. In this study, we show that inflammation induced by injection of casein into one of the causes c-fos expression in the paraventricular nucleus of the hypothalamus (PVN) in an ...

Activity of neurones in the paraventricular nucleus of the hypothalamus and its control
The Journal of Physiology, 1966 1. Activity of the paraventricular nucleus neurones was recorded by micro‐electrodes during resting conditions and while various osmotic, chemical, direct and indirect neural stimuli were applied. This activity was correlated with evidence of oxytocin release by recording milk ejection responses.2.

Ultradian calcium rhythms in the paraventricular nucleus and subparaventricular zone in the hypothalamus [PDF]
Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences, 2018 Significance Despite that the various functions in mammals fluctuate in the ultradian fashion, the origin and mechanism of the rhythm are largely unknown. In this study, we found synchronous ultradian calcium rhythms in the hypothalamic paraventricular nucleus (PVN), subparaventricular zone (SPZ), and suprachiasmatic nucleus (SCN ...

Cardiovascular Function of the Paraventricular Nucleus of the Hypothalamus
Neurosignals, 1995 Recent evidence is showing that the paraventricular nucleus (PVN) of the hypothalamus plays a key role in autonomic regulation. Studies by the author of the PVN neurones that project to the spinal cord are reviewed. These neurones are inhibited by arterial baroreceptors and excited or inhibited by pulmonary/cardiac vagal afferents.
