Onset, timing, and exposure therapy of stress disorders: mechanistic insight from a mathematical model of oscillating neuroendocrine dynamics [PDF]

, 2016
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 (

Neurology of the pituitary gland [PDF]

Journal of Neurology, Neurosurgery & Psychiatry, 1999
This review will focus on those aspects of pituitary disease immediately relevant to neurologists and neurosurgeons when assessing and counselling patients. It is essential to adopt a multidisciplinary approach to the diagnosis and management of pituitary disease as emphasised by the recently published guidelines from the Royal College of Physicians of

Alternative Models for Anticancer Drug Discovery From Natural Products Using Binary Tumor‐Microenvironment‐on‐a‐Chip

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
This study presents a binary tumor‐microenvironment‐on‐a‐chip (T‐MOC) system incorporating multicellular tumor spheroids (MCTs) as an alternative preclinical platform to evaluate the efficacy of anticancer natural products. The T‐MOC model reproduces in vivo drug delivery barriers and physiological conditions, enabling morphological analysis to predict

Pituitary hyperplasia mimicking macroadenoma associated with primary hypothyroidism in a patient with selective L-thyroxine malabsorption [PDF]

, 2017
We present the case of a 29-year-old woman who developed a severe hypothyroidism induced by a thyroxine malabsorption and a secondary pituitary hyperplasia.

Shell Neurons of the Master Circadian Clock Coordinate the Phase of Tissue Clocks Throughout the Brain and Body [PDF]

, 2015
Background: Daily rhythms in mammals are programmed by a master clock in the suprachiasmatic nucleus (SCN). The SCN contains two main compartments (shell and core), but the role of each region in system-level coordination remains ill defined.

Bioinspired Prolactin Pulse Release from Responsive Microneedles for Inhibiting Fatty Liver Formation

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
Inspired by the prolactin secretion profile under normal physiological conditions, biomimetic prolactin‐releasing microneedles are designed. Under the control of near infrared (NIR), these responsive microneedles facilitate pulsed release of prolactin to inhibit fatty liver formation.

Comparative Single‐Cell Transcriptomic Landscape Reveals the Regulatory Mechanisms of Lactation during Selective Breeding in Asian Water Buffalo

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
In this study, a comprehensive single‐cell transcriptome atlas of river and swamp buffalo, encompassing 12 tissues and 397,011 cells, is constructed. Differential expression analyses identify metabolic and secretory tissues and cell types that mediate the divergence of milk production.

Water‐Soluble Molecular Wires for Membrane Potential Imaging

Angewandte Chemie, EarlyView.
Fully water‐soluble fluorescent rosamine‐based amphiphilic molecular wires were developed for imaging membrane potentials. The performance of the probes was evaluated in single cardiomyocytes, murine pituitary gland, and islets of Langerhans.

Electrochemistry as a Tool for Redox‐Based Bio‐Information Processing

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
Redox is a modality that is native to biology and accessible to electronics through electrochemistry. Imposed electronic inputs are transduced into redox signals that can probe for bio‐information or actuate biological responses. Measured electronic output responses are analyzed to reveal actionable information.

Purification and cultivation of human pituitary growth hormone secreting cells [PDF]

A multiphase study was conducted to examine the properties of growth hormone cells. Topics investigated included: (1) to determine if growth hormone (GH) cells contained within the rat pituitary gland can be separated from the other hormone producing ...
