The role of leptin resistance in the development of thyroid neoplasia
Background. Leptin influences energy metabolism, as it is able to inform the central nervous system about adipose tissue reserves, and is also an important neuroendocrine regulator.

Functional Divergence of Glycoprotein Hormone Receptors [PDF]
Two lamprey glycroprotein hormone receptors (lGpH-R I and II) highly similar with gnathostome GpH-Rs were cloned from sea lamprey testes and thyroid, respectively.

Physiological Changes in Subjects Exposed to Accidental Hypothermia: An Update
BackgroundAccidental hypothermia (AH) is an unintended decrease in body core temperature (BCT) to below 35°C. We present an update on physiological/pathophysiological changes associated with AH and rewarming from hypothermic cardiac arrest (HCA ...

The Thyrotropin-Releasing Hormone-Degrading Ectoenzyme, a Therapeutic Target?
Thyrotropin releasing hormone (TRH: Glp-His-Pro-NH2) is a peptide mainly produced by brain neurons. In mammals, hypophysiotropic TRH neurons of the paraventricular nucleus of the hypothalamus integrate metabolic information and drive the secretion of ...

Effects of arsenic exposure on E2 and TRH and their receptor mRNA expressions in rats
BackgroundArsenic can enter the hypothalamus to induce estrogen effect and interfere with the function of the neuroendocrine system. The thyroid endocrine system (hypothalamic-pituitary-thyroid axis) is one of the main endocrine systems, and the ...

Involvement of the hypothalamic-pituitary-thyroid axis and its interaction with the hypothalamic-pituitary-adrenal axis in the ontogeny of avian thermoregulation: a review [PDF]
The emergence of thermoregulation in avian species is a complex matter in which neural as well as hormonal processes are involved. In a previous paper, the neural aspects of primary avian thermoregulation were discussed.

Improved leptin sensitivity as a potential candidate responsible for the spontaneous food restriction of the Lou/C rat. [PDF]
The Lou/C rat, an inbred strain of Wistar origin, was described as a model of resistance to age- and diet-induced obesity. Although such a resistance involves many metabolic parameters described in our previous studies, Lou/C rats also exhibit a ...
