Activation of the hypothalamic-pituitary-adrenal stress axis induces cellular oxidative stress
Glucocorticoids released from the adrenal gland in response to stress-induced activation of the hypothalamic-pituitary-adrenal (HPA) axis induce activity in the cellular reduction-oxidation (redox) system.

Volume of the adrenal and pituitary glands in depression
Numerous studies have shown that the hypothalamic-pituitary-adrenal (HPA) axis is hyperactive in some depressed patients. It is unclear whether such hyperactivity results in changed volumes of the adrenal glands, pituitary gland and hypothalamus.

Pituitary-immune bidirectional crosstalk under systemic inflammation.
The pituitary gland responds to and modulates immune stress through the hypothalamus-pituitary-adrenal axis. A new study in PLOS Biology reveals unconventional bidirectional communication between hormone-producing cells and the immune system upon ...

Non-Canonical Effects of ACTH: Insights Into Adrenal Insufficiency
IntroductionAdrenocorticotropic hormone (ACTH) is produced from proopiomelanocortin, which is predominantly synthetized in the corticotroph and melanotroph cells of the anterior and intermediate lobes of the pituitary gland and the arcuate nucleus of the

Modeling pulsativity in the hypothalamic–pituitary–adrenal hormonal axis
A new mathematical model for biological rhythms in the hypothalamic–pituitary–adrenal (HPA) axis is proposed. This model takes the form of a system of impulsive time-delay differential equations which include pulsatile release of adrenocorticotropin ...
