We studied angiotensin II (ANG II) receptor subtype expression in selected brain nuclei and pituitary gland after water deprivation by in vitro receptor autoradiography using 125I-labeled [Sar1]ANG II and by in situ hybridization using 35S-labeled AT1A,

Mechanisms of intrinsic osmolality and sodium detection by magnocellular neurosecretory neurons
Abstract The maintenance of extracellular fluid (ECF) osmolality and sodium concentration ([Na+]o) near optimal “set point” values sustains physiological functions and prevents pathological states such as hypo‐ and hypernatremia. The peptide hormones vasopressin (antidiuretic hormone) and oxytocin (a natriuretic hormone in rats) play key roles in this ...

Background Hydrocephalus is a heterogeneous disorder with multiple etiologies that are not yet fully understood. Animal models have implicated dysfunctional cilia of the ependyma and choroid plexus in the development of the disorder.

Circumventing a broken heart: cytokines and the subfornical organ [PDF]
heart failure is a growing epidemic in developed nations. According to the most recent figures from the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention and the 2016 statistical update from the American Heart Association, it is estimated that ~1.8% of the United States population, ~5.8 million adults,

Extracellular hyperosmolality extracts water from the catalytic center of WNK1 increasing the kinase activity. WNK1 phosphorylates and activates OSR1/SPAK leading to increases in Kv3.1 activity. Enhanced Kv3.1 activity accelerates repolarization, increasing afterhyperpolarization (AHP) and/or shortening AP width to increase action potential firing ...

PTPRD (receptor‐type protein tyrosine phosphatase delta) translates extracellular adhesion “codes” into intracellular phosphotyrosine signaling that shapes brain circuits. Alternative inclusion of micro‐exons meA and meB sculpts PTPRD's Ig domain, dictating trans‐synaptic binding to partners such as IL1RAPL1 or IL1RAP and thereby tuning synapse ...

Sniffer cells for the detection of neural Angiotensin II in vitro
Neuropeptide release in the brain has traditionally been difficult to observe. Existing methods lack temporal and spatial resolution that is consistent with the function and size of neurons.

Both alcohol‐dependent mice and abstinent AUD patients exhibited elevated plasma APOAI levels and memory impairments compared to controls. Higher APOAI levels were associated with poorer memory in both species, suggesting its potential as a biomarker for alcohol‐related cognitive deficits.
