Objective. The goal of this study was to reveal the impact of four types of atypical antipsychotics including amisulpride (AMI), olanzapine (OLA), quetiapine (QUE), and aripiprazole (ARI), with different receptor-affinity profile and dissociation ...

Whole transcriptome organisation in the dehydrated supraoptic nucleus [PDF]
The supraoptic nucleus (SON) is part of the central osmotic circuitry that synthesises the hormone vasopressin (Avp) and transports it to terminals in the posterior lobe of the pituitary.

Ageing restructures the transcriptome of the hypothalamic supraoptic nucleus and alters the response to dehydration. [PDF]
Ageing is associated with altered neuroendocrine function. In the context of the hypothalamic supraoptic nucleus, which makes the antidiuretic hormone vasopressin, ageing alters acute responses to hyperosmotic cues, rendering the elderly more susceptible

Transcriptomic changes in the jerboa supraoptic nucleus during osmotic stress: PCSK1 and PTPRN changes are conserved across desert and mesic species. [PDF]
Abstract The supraoptic nucleus (SON) is a hypothalamic region essential for the orchestration of osmoregulation in mammals. We sought to understand how gene expression in the SON is orchestrated in a rodent species adapted for survival in arid desert conditions.

Supraoptic nucleus morphological features of the hypothalamus in the skin burn injury dynamics
Relevance. The relevance of the study of the large cell nucleus of the anterior hypothalamus in case of skin damage is due to the important role of accompanying reactive changes in the neuroendocrine regulatory complex in stress.

Neuropeptidomics of the Supraoptic Rat Nucleus [PDF]
The mammalian supraoptic nucleus (SON) is a neuroendocrine center in the brain regulating a variety of physiological functions. Within the SON, peptidergic magnocellular neurons that project to the neurohypophysis (posterior pituitary) are involved in controlling osmotic balance, lactation, and parturition, partly through secretion of signaling ...

Hypothalamic Neurochemical and Microglial Suppression in Long-Standing Human Hibernation-Like Syndrome. [PDF]
A rare case of a human hibernation‐like syndrome was associated with preserved hypothalamic anatomy but profound suppression of neuroendocrine and circadian neuropeptide systems. Marked reductions in synaptic and microglial immunoreactivity suggest a suppressed hypothalamic neuron–glial network, despite preserved astrocytic markers, myelination and ...

The Hypothalamus of the Beaked Whales: The Paraventricular, Supraoptic, and Suprachiasmatic Nuclei
The hypothalamus is the body’s control coordinating center. It is responsible for maintaining the body’s homeostasis by directly influencing the autonomic nervous system or managing hormones. Beaked whales are the longest divers among cetaceans and their

The distribution of neuroligin4, an autism-related postsynaptic molecule, in the human brain
NLGN4X was identified as a single causative gene of rare familial nonsyndromic autism for the first time. It encodes the postsynaptic membrane protein Neuroligin4 (NLGN4), the functions and roles of which, however, are not fully understood due to the ...
