Expression and cellular localization of the transcription factor NeuroD1 in the developing and adult rat pineal gland [PDF]
, 2015 Circadian rhythms govern many aspects of mammalian physiology. The daily pattern of melatonin synthesis and secretion is one of the classic examples of circadian oscillations.

Autism Research, Volume 16, Issue 10, Page 1877-1890, October 2023., 2023 Abstract Prenatal exposure to valproic acid (VPA), a drug widely used to treat epilepsy and bipolar disorder, is an environmental risk factor for autism spectrum disorder (ASD). VPA has been used to reproduce the core symptoms of ASD in animal model organisms, including zebrafish.

The Pinealocyte-A Paraneuron ? A Review
Archivum histologicum japonicum, 1977 The pineal complex develops from a tubular evagination of the diencephalic roof. In amphibians a proliferation zone is the source of the pinealocytes and of the cells of the subcommissural organ. The pinealocytes are not real nerve cells, but derived likewise from the embryonic neural epithelium.

Journal of Pineal Research, Volume 75, Issue 2, September 2023., 2023 Abstract Circadian clock gene expression in the suprachiasmatic nucleus (SCN) controls 24 h rhythms in body functions, but clock genes are also expressed in extra‐hypothalamic tissues, including the melatonin‐producing pineal gland. The nocturnal increase in pineal melatonin synthesis is a hallmark in circadian biology, but the role of local clock gene

Protein and mRNA expression of gonadotropin-releasing hormone receptor in yaks during estrus
Revista Brasileira de Zootecnia, 2018 To demonstrate the role of gonadotropin-releasing hormone (GnRH) in yaks (Bos grunniens), we characterized the expression of gonadotropin-releasing hormone receptor (GnRHR) mRNA and protein.

Adrenergic control of pinealocyte chondriome – an in vitro study [PDF]
Polish Journal of Veterinary Sciences, 2016 Abstract Norepinephrine released from sympathetic innervation plays the main role in the regulation of melatonin secretion in mammalian pinealocytes. The present study was conducted for the following reasons: 1) to establish whether the pinealocyte chondriome is controlled by norepinephrine, 2) to determine the effect of adrenergic stimulation on ...

Active zone proteins are dynamically associated with synaptic ribbons in rat pinealocytes [PDF]
, 2008 Synaptic ribbons (SRs) are prominent organelles that are abundant in the ribbon synapses of sensory neurons where they represent a specialization of the cytomatrix at the active zone (CAZ).
