Distribution of Vasotocin- and Vasoactive Intestinal Peptide-like Immunoreactivity in the Brain of Blue Tit (Cyanistes coeruleus)

Frontiers in Neuroanatomy, 2015
Blue tits (Cyanistes coeruleus) are songbirds, used as model animals in numerous studies covering a wide field of research. Nevertheless, the distribution of neuropeptides in the brain of this avian species remains largely unknown.

Sexually dimorphic effects of a prenatal immune challenge on social play and vasopressin expression in juvenile rats

Biology of Sex Differences, 2012
Background Infectious diseases and inflammation during pregnancy increase the offspring’s risk for behavioral disorders. However, how immune stress affects neural circuitry during development is not well known.

Variations of nNOS and its mRNA in the neurons of the hypothalamic supraoptic nucleus in response to stress by immobilization [PDF]

, 2009
[EN]Using rats subjected to immobilization stress, the aim of the present study was to investigate the expression of neuronal nitric oxide synthase and of its mRNA in the magnocellular neurons of the supraoptic nucleus of the hypothalamus, which ...

Intradermal Injection of Oxytocin Aggravates Chloroquine-Induced Itch Responses via Activating the Vasopressin-1a Receptor/Nitric Oxide Pathway in Mice

Frontiers in Pharmacology, 2019
Oxytocin (OT), a hormone synthesized within the paraventricular nucleus and supraoptic nucleus of the hypothalamus, when given intracerebroventricularly, induces strong scratching behaviors.

Modulation of GABAergic transmission by endogenous glutamate in the rat supraoptic nucleus.

, 2003
The presence of group III metabotropic glutamate receptors on GABAergic terminals in the supraoptic nucleus suggests that the level of glutamate in the extracellular space may regulate synaptic strength at inhibitory synapses.

Chemoreceptor and baroreceptor responses of A1 area neurons projecting to supraoptic nucleus

, 1992
Extracellular recordings were made from 127 neurons, identified by antidromic activation from the supraoptic nucleus, in the A1 area of urethan-anesthetized rabbits.

Gene expression in the rat supraoptic nucleus induced by chronic hyperosmolality versus hyposmolality

, 2000
Magnocellular neurons of the hypothalamo-neurohypophysial system play a fundamental role in the maintenance of body homeostasis by secreting vasopressin and oxytocin in response to systemic osmotic perturbations.

Intracisternally Injected L-Proline Activates Hypothalamic Supraoptic, but Not Paraventricular, Vasopressin-Expressing Neurons in Conscious Rats [PDF]

, 2011
When injected into specific rat brain regions, the neurotransmitter candidate L-proline produces various cardiovascular changes through ionotropic excitatory amino acid receptors.

Computational study of the effect of forced exercise (swim stress) on the NADPH- diaphorase activity in the supraoptic nucleus

, 2002
[EN]Nitric oxide synthesizing neurons of the hypothalamus show changes following a variety of experimental and pathological conditions, such as salt loading, hypotension, cholestasis, water deprivation, and several types of stress including ...
