The Journal of Physiology, Volume 603, Issue 19, Page 5827-5849, October 1, 2025.Abstract figure legend Oxytocinergic modulation of breathing in the retrotrapezoid nucleus (RTN). The paraventricular nucleus of the hypothalamus (PVN), which serves as the primary source of oxytocin (Oxt) in the brainstem, projects to the RTN. In vivo, pharmacological (TGOT) or optogenetic activation of oxytocinergic receptors and varicosities within ...

Mapping neuronal inputs to Kiss1 neurons in the arcuate nucleus of the mouse.
PLoS ONE, 2019 The normal function of the mammalian reproductive axis is strongly influenced by physiological, metabolic and environmental factors. Kisspeptin neuropeptides, encoded by the Kiss1 gene, are potent regulators of the mammalian reproductive axis by ...

State of the body in disorders of diurnal physiological rhythms and long-term hypokinesia [PDF]
In order to study the effects of hypokinesia and circadian rhythm restructuring on the morphological and functional status of the hypothalamo-hypophysic-adrenal system, young male Wistar rats were placed in small cages for varying periods.

Somatodendritic secretion in oxytocin neurons is upregulated during the female reproductive cycle [PDF]
, 2003 During the female reproductive cycle, hypothalamic oxytocin (OT) neurons undergo sharp changes in excitability. In lactating mammals, bursts of electrical activity of OT neurons result in the release of large amounts of OT in the bloodstream, which ...
