Distinct CCK-positive SFO neurons are involved in persistent or transient suppression of water intake

Nature Communications, 2020
Water intake is critical to our life, and the subfornical organ in the brain involved in the control of this behavior. Here, the authors reveal that two distinct groups of CCK-producing neurons in the SFO suppress water intake according to the ...

Reactive oxygen species in the paraventricular nucleus of the hypothalamus alter sympathetic activity during metabolic syndrome.

Frontiers in Physiology, 2015
The paraventricular nucleus of the hypothalamus (PVN) contains heterogeneous populations of neurons involved in autonomic and neuroendocrine regulation.

Sensory Circumventricular Organs, Neuroendocrine Control, and Metabolic Regulation

Metabolites, 2021
The central nervous system is critical in metabolic regulation, and accumulating evidence points to a distributed network of brain regions involved in energy homeostasis.

Increased (pro)renin receptor expression in the subfornical organ of hypertensive humans.

Am J Physiol Heart Circ Physiol, 2018
The central nervous system plays an important role in essential hypertension in humans and in animal models of hypertension through modulation of sympathetic activity and Na+and body fluid homeostasis. Data from animal models of hypertension suggest that

Role of AT1 receptors at the subfornical organ, in the integration of hydroelectrolytic and energetic balance

, 2023
Although classically involved in cardiovascular control and hydromineral balance, the reninangiotensin system (SRA) has been implicated in energy balance control.

Increased mitochondrial superoxide in the brain, but not periphery, sensitizes mice to angiotensin II-mediated hypertension

Redox Biology, 2017
Angiotensin II (AngII) elicits the production of superoxide (O2•−) from mitochondria in numerous cell types within peripheral organs and in the brain suggesting a role for mitochondrial-produced O2•− in the pathogenesis of hypertension.

Physiological basis of arginine vasopressin deficiency (AVP-D, formerly central diabetes insipidus) and AVP-resistance (AVP-R, formerly nephrogenic diabetes insipidus) [PDF]

Exploration of Medicine
This review explored the physiological mechanisms underlying arginine vasopressin deficiency (AVP-D, formerly central diabetes insipidus) and AVP resistance (AVP-R, formerly nephrogenic diabetes insipidus), with a focus on water balance regulation. Vital

Central interaction between nitric oxide, lactate and glial cells to modulate water and sodium intake in rats

Brain Research Bulletin, 2022
The ''astrocyte-to-neuron lactate shuttle'' (ANLS) mechanism is part of the central inhibitory pathway to modulate sodium intake. An interaction between the GABAergic neurons and nitric oxide (NO) in the subfornical organ (SFO) in salt-appetite ...

The subfornical organ: A novel site for prolactin action [PDF]

Journal of Neuroendocrinology, 2018
Prolactin (PRL) is a peptide hormone that performs over 300 biological functions, including those that require binding to prolactin receptor (PRL‐R) in neurones within the central nervous system (CNS). To enter theCNS, circulatingPRLmust overcome the blood‐brain barrier. Accordingly, areas of the brain that do not possess a blood‐brain barrier, such as

Development of Circumventricular Organs in the Mirror of Zebrafish Enhancer-Trap Transgenics

Frontiers in Neuroanatomy, 2017
The circumventricular organs (CVOs) are small structures lining the cavities of brain ventricular system. They are associated with the semitransparent regions of the blood-brain barrier (BBB).
