Fifty Years of Advances in Neuroendocrinology
Importance of the neuroendocrine brain for health and happiness has become clear since the 1960s. Foundations laid 100 years ago culminated in Geoffrey W Harris’s model of control by the brain of secretion of anterior and posterior pituitary gland ...

Growth hormone-releasing hormone (GHRH) and its receptor (GHRHR) have long been regarded as the critical molecules for the stimulation of growth hormone (GH) synthesis and release, as well as the regulation of pituitary somatotroph expansion in vertebrates. However, little is known about their expression in the embryonic pituitaries of birds.

TRH: Pathophysiologic and clinical implications [PDF]
Thyrotropin releasing hormone is thought to be a tonic stimulator of the pituitary TSH secretion regulating the setpoint of the thyrotrophs to the suppressive effect of thyroid hormones. The peptide stimulates the release of normal and elevated prolactin.

Agmatine, a clonidine displacing substance and imidazoline receptor agonist, was recently isolated from bovine brain and shown to be present in the rat hypothalamus. Since clonidine can stimulate the release of pituitary luteinizing hormone (LH), we tested the hypothesis that agmatine may similarly act in the rat to stimulate the hypothalamic ...
