Litter sex composition influences plasma prolactin levels but not the melanin‐concentrating hormone immunoreactive neurons in the medial preoptic area of late lactating Long‐Evans rats

open access: yesJournal of Neuroendocrinology, EarlyView.
Influence of litter sex composition on maternal prolactin levels and MCH‐immunoreactive (MCH‐ir) neurons in the vmMPOA of lactating rats. The sex ratio of litters affects maternal physiology, specifically increasing prolactin levels and altering weight gain patterns, while food and water intake and MCH‐ir neuron counts remain unchanged.

Dynamic changes in Ccn3 expression across the limbic forebrain through the mouse estrous cycle and during lactation

open access: yesJournal of Neuroendocrinology, EarlyView.
Abstract Cellular communication network factor 3 (CCN3), also known as nephroblastoma overexpressed (NOV), is an adipocytokine that has recently been suggested to be secreted selectively by hypothalamic arcuate nucleus kisspeptin (ARNKISS) neurons to protect bone density during lactation. Using RNAscope hybridization, we have examined the expression of

Crosstalk between thyroid hormones and the central corticotropin‐releasing factor system in Atlantic salmon

open access: yesJournal of Neuroendocrinology, EarlyView.
The corticotropin‐releasing factor (CRF) system plays a key role in centrally regulating thyroid hormone (TH) synthesis in non‐mammalian vertebrates, but interactions between THs and the CRF system remain poorly understood in fish. Here, we report that THs directly affect transcription of several CRF system components across different hypophysiotropic ...

Loss of choroid plexus‐derived insulin‐like growth factor 2 (IGF2) leads to hyposmia, while retaining post‐partum mood resilience in mice

open access: yesJournal of Neuroendocrinology, EarlyView.
Abstract During the post‐partum period, new mothers are vulnerable to mood disorders. In adults, impairments in neurogenesis commonly associate with anxiety and depressive behaviors. Insulin‐like growth factor 2 (IGF2) is expressed in the choroid plexus (CP) within the subventricular zone (SVZ) neurogenic niche, and global loss of IGF2 leads to ...

The 20 kDa isoform of the human growth hormone variant alters adipose and muscle gene expression differently than human growth hormone

open access: yesJournal of Neuroendocrinology, EarlyView.
Abstract The 20 kDa isoform of human growth hormone variant (20K hGH‐V) (derived from the GH2 gene) has previously been shown to promote growth but lacks the diabetogenic and lactogenic activities of human GH (derived from the GH1 gene). That is, 20K hGH‐V‐treated mice have similar body size and composition to hGH‐treated mice, as well as improved ...

Diversity and development of the hemibacula of croaking geckos (Sphaerodactylidae: Aristelliger)

open access: yesJournal of Anatomy, EarlyView.
Geckos in the genus Aristelliger exhibit enigmatic mineralized elements in their hemipenes, called hemibacula. We examined hemibacula of every species of Aristelliger using μCT, clearing and staining, and histology. We found hemibacula exhibit lineage‐specific morphology, isometric growth after sexual maturity, and are composed of mineralized ...
