Non-Coding RNA Sequencing of Equine Endometrium During Maternal Recognition of Pregnancy. [PDF]

, 2019
Maternal recognition of pregnancy (MRP) in the mare is not well defined. In a non-pregnant mare, prostaglandin F2α (PGF) is released on day 14 post-ovulation (PO) to cause luteal regression, resulting in loss of progesterone production. Equine MRP occurs

Effects of oxytocin receptor agonism on acquisition and expression of pair bonding in male prairie voles

Translational Psychiatry
There is much interest in targeting the activity in the oxytocin system to regulate social bonding. However, studies with exogenous administration of oxytocin face the caveats of its low stability, poor brain permeability and insufficient receptor ...

Effect of polychlorinated biphenyls on the secretion of oxytocin from luteal and granulosa cells in cow: possible involvement of glucocorticoid receptors

Veterinární Medicína, 2006
Polychlorinated biphenyls (PCBs) stimulate oxytocin secretion from bovine granulosa and luteal cells. Since oxytocin on the one hand is released from ovarian cells by cortisol and on the other hand PCBs can be bound by glucocorticoid receptors (GCr), we ...

Oxytocin at physiological concentrations evokes adrenocorticotropin (ACTH) release from corticotrophs by increasing intracellular free calcium mobilized mainly from intracellular stores. Oxytocin displays synergistic or additive effects on ACTH-releasing factor or arginine vasopressin-induced ACTH secretion, respectively [PDF]

, 1992
The potency of oxytocin (OT) in evoking ACTH secretion by isolated, superfused rat adenohypophyseal corticotrophs and its enhancement by CRF and arginine vasopressin (AVP) were analyzed.

The interplay of oxytocin and dopaminergic system: Effects on food consumption in broiler chickens

Poultry Science
Oxytocin play a crucial physiological role in regulating feed consumption and maintaining energy homeostasis. Numerous studies have highlighted the influence of central dopaminergic systems on appetite control; however, there is a lack of information ...

How Does the Body Affect the Mind? Role of Cardiorespiratory Coherence in the Spectrum of Emotions [PDF]

, 2015
The brain is considered to be the primary generator and regulator of emotions; however, afferent signals originating throughout the body are detected by the autonomic nervous system (ANS) and brainstem, and, in turn, can modulate emotional processes ...
