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

open access: yes, 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 (

Ligula intestinalis (Cestoda: Pseudophyllidea): an ideal fish-metazoan parasite model? [PDF]

open access: yes, 2010
Since its use as a model to study metazoan parasite culture and in vitro development, the plerocercoid of the tapeworm, Ligula intestinalis, has served as a useful scientific tool to study a range of biological factors, particularly within its fish ...

Pituitary response to luteinizing hormone-releasing hormone in women with variant luteinizing hormone [PDF]

open access: yesEuropean Journal of Endocrinology, 2000
OBJECTIVE: To assess the LH response of the pituitary gland to GnRH stimulation in healthy women with a mutant beta-subunit (Trp8 to Arg8 and Ile15 to Thr15). DESIGN: Clinical study. PATIENTS: We studied 40 healthy non-pregnant Japanese women of known zygosity for the LH beta-subunit gene (3 homozygotes for the mutant gene, 17 heterozygotes, and 20 ...

Use of kisspeptin to trigger oocyte maturation during in vitro fertilisation (IVF) treatment

open access: yesFrontiers in Endocrinology, 2022
Infertility is a major global health issue and is associated with significant psychological distress for afflicted couples. In vitro fertilisation (IVF) utilises supra-physiological doses of stimulatory hormones to induce the growth of multiple ovarian ...

[Pituitary apoplexy after injection of pituitary-hormone releasing hormones].

open access: yesTidsskrift for den Norske laegeforening : tidsskrift for praktisk medicin, ny raekke, 1994
Pituitary apoplexy often occurs spontaneously in adenomas. A few cases have been reported after testing anterior pituitary function by means of intravenous injections of a mixture of gonadotropin-releasing hormone and thyrotropin-releasing hormone, or gonadotropin-releasing hormone alone.
