Cocaine disrupts action flexibility via glucocorticoid receptors
Summary: Many addictive drugs increase stress hormone levels. They also alter the propensity of organisms to prospectively select actions based on long-term consequences.

Hippocmapal Opioid Recptors Probably Mediating the Effects of Peripheal Corticosterone on Consolidation and Retreival of Spatial Memory in Rat [PDF]
Objective: Strong evidence indicate that activity of glucocorticoid receptors is necessaryfor emotional memory processess and these effects probably are mediated by hipppocampal opioid receptors.

Single-Cell Resolution and Quantitation of Targeted Glucocorticoid Delivery in the Thymus
Summary: Glucocorticoids are lipid-soluble hormones that signal via the glucocorticoid receptor (GR), a ligand-dependent transcription factor. Circulating glucocorticoids derive from the adrenals, but it is now apparent that paracrine glucocorticoid ...

EFFECTS OF STRESS ON BEHAVIOUR AND SLEEP
Psychologists Yerkes and Dodson described already in 1908 the inverted-U shaped relationship between arousal and performance. When the level of arousal heightens, behavioural performance increases but only to a certain point.

Summary: The zona fasciculata (zF) in the adrenal cortex contributes to multiple physiological actions through glucocorticoid synthesis. The size, proliferation, and glucocorticoid synthesis characteristics are all female biased, and sexual dimorphism is

Binding Selectivity Analysis from Alchemical Receptor Hopping and Swapping Free Energy Calculations [PDF]
We present receptor hopping and receptor swapping free energy estimation protocols based on the Alchemical Transfer Method (ATM) to model the binding selectivity of a set of ligands to two arbitrary receptors. The receptor hopping protocol, where a ligand is alchemically transferred from one receptor to another in one simulation, directly yields the ...
