Onset, timing, and exposure therapy of stress disorders: mechanistic insight from a mathematical model of oscillating neuroendocrine dynamics [PDF]
The hypothalamic-pituitary-adrenal (HPA) axis is a neuroendocrine system that regulates numerous physiological processes. Disruptions in the activity of the HPA axis are correlated with many stress-related diseases such as post-traumatic stress disorder (

Factors predicting the outcomes of removal of corticotropinom in Cushing's disease
Background. Cushings disease (CD) is the heavy disease of the hypothalamic-pituitary-adrenal axis. The cause of the disease is pituitary adenoma (corticotropinoma). Hypersecretion of ACTH by a pituitary adenoma leads to increased secretion of cortisol by

Effects of Imipramine and Lithium on the Suppression of Cell Proliferation in the Dentate Gyrus of the Hippocampus in Adrenocorticotropic Hormone-treated Rats [PDF]
We examined the influence of chronic adrenocorticotropic hormone (ACTH) treatment on the number of Ki-67-positive cells in the dentate gyrus of the hippocampus in rats. ACTH treatment for 14 days decreased the number of such cells.
