Alpha-synuclein expression in oxytocin neurons of young and old bovine brains

The Journal of Reproduction and Development
Understanding of central nervous system mechanisms underlying age-related infertility remains limited. Fibril α-synuclein, distinct from its monomeric form, is implicated in age-related diseases. Notably, fibril α-synuclein spreads among neurons,

Expression of exocytosis proteins in rat supraoptic nucleus neurones. [PDF]

J Neuroendocrinol, 2012
In magnocellular neurones of the supraoptic nucleus (SON), the neuropeptides vasopressin and oxytocin are synthesised and packaged into large dense‐cored vesicles (LDCVs). These vesicles undergo regulated exocytosis from nerve terminals in the posterior pituitary gland and from somata/dendrites in the SON. Regulated exocytosis of LDCVs is considered to

Unraveling the Dynamics of Oxytocin in Hypothalamic Neurons

Traffic, Volume 27, Issue 2, June 2026.
Oxytocin (OT) plays an important role in regulating social behavior, and dysregulation of the oxytocinergic system leads to social impairments, such as autism spectrum disorder. Central OT release is poorly understood. Using live‐cell imaging to track vesicle trajectories, combined with machine learning‐based classification, the analysis reveals ...

Activity-dependent release of Adenosine: a critical re-evaluation of mechanism [PDF]

, 2008
Adenosine is perhaps the most important and universal modulator in the brain. The current consensus is that it is primarily produced in the extracellular space from the breakdown of previously released ATP.

Pituitary Neurolobectomy induces sustained hypotension in male Wistar rats and normalizes blood pressure in male spontaneously hypertensive rats

Physiological Reports, Volume 14, Issue 11, June 2026.
Abstract Arginine vasopressin is primarily recognized as an osmoregulatory hormone; however, its contribution to vascular tone and blood pressure regulation under basal and hypertensive conditions remains debated. This study examined the effects of vasopressin deficiency induced by neurointermediate pituitary lobectomy in Wistar and spontaneously ...

Atrial natriuretic peptide secretion during development of the rat supraoptic nucleus

European Journal of Histochemistry, 2009
Since a relationship between atrial natriuretic peptide and oxytocin was recently demonstrated in the heart (Gutkowska et al., 1997), the aim of this study was to determine whether a relationship between the two peptides is present also in the rat ...

Central mechanisms mediating the hypophagic effects of oleoylethanolamide and N-acylphosphatidylethanolamines: different lipid signals? [PDF]

, 2015
The spread of "obesity epidemic" and the poor efficacy of many anti-obesity therapies in the long-term highlight the need to develop novel efficacious therapy. This necessity stimulates a large research effort to find novel mechanisms controlling feeding

A Scoping Review of Non‐Opioid Therapeutics for Opioid Withdrawal: Translational Relevance to Neonatal Opioid Withdrawal Syndrome (NOWS) Research

Clinical and Translational Science, Volume 19, Issue 5, May 2026.
ABSTRACT In the wake of the ongoing opioid epidemic, the incidence of neonatal opioid withdrawal syndrome (NOWS) has surged. While the short‐term effects of NOWS are well‐characterized, long‐term physiological and molecular consequences remain unclear.

IL-1α and TNF-α Down-Regulate CRH Receptor-2 mRNA Expression in the Mouse Heart [PDF]

, 2001
Two receptors (CRH receptor type 1 and CRH receptor type 2) have been identified for the stress-induced neuropeptide, CRH and related peptides, urocortin, and urocortin II.
