Oxytocin at physiological concentrations evokes adrenocorticotropin (ACTH) release from corticotrophs by increasing intracellular free calcium mobilized mainly from intracellular stores. Oxytocin displays synergistic or additive effects on ACTH-releasing factor or arginine vasopressin-induced ACTH secretion, respectively [PDF]
, 1992 The potency of oxytocin (OT) in evoking ACTH secretion by isolated, superfused rat adenohypophyseal corticotrophs and its enhancement by CRF and arginine vasopressin (AVP) were analyzed.

American Journal of Medical Genetics Part A, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Heterozygous pathogenic variants in TBX3 cause Ulnar‐Mammary syndrome (UMS). The phenotype is classically characterized by upper limb defects, apocrine/mammary gland hypoplasia, hypogonadism, and various midline defects. However, the clinical spectrum is highly variable, and some individuals may present with a mild or atypical presentation ...

Effect of the glucocorticoid receptor antagonist Org 34850 on fast and delayed feedback of corticosterone release [PDF]
, 2007 We investigated the effect of the glucocorticoid receptor (GR) antagonist Org 34850 on fast and delayed inhibition of corticosterone secretion in response to the synthetic glucocorticoid methylprednisolone (MPL).

A rare cause of recurrent spontaneous pneumothorax: Birt-hogg-dube syndrome [PDF]
, 2018 Birt-Hogg-Dube (BHD) syndrome is an unusual disorder characterized by the triad of cutaneous lesions, renal tumors and lung cysts. In cases with BHD syndrome, the frequency of recurrent pneumothorax is increased due to presence of multiple lung cysts. It

Strategies for optimization of hypoglycemia rat models
Animal Models and Experimental Medicine, EarlyView.This review focuses on rat models for studying the short‐term and long‐term effects of mild and severe hypoglycemia. We explored the physiological mechanisms to understand the consequences of hypoglycemia in rat experimental models. This study sheds light on uncovering the therapeutic potential for hypoglycemic patients and its efficacy in mitigating ...

Expression of three GnRH receptors in specific tissues in male and female sea lampreys Petromyzon marinus at three distinct life stages [PDF]
, 2013 Two recently cloned gonadotropin-releasing hormone (GnRH) receptors (lamprey GnRH-R-2 and lamprey GnRH-R-3) along with lamprey (l) GnRH-R-1 were shown to share similar structural features and amino acid motifs common to other vertebrate receptors.
