Oxytocinergic Signaling in Zebrafish: Translational Perspectives for Autism Spectrum Disorder

Journal of Neurochemistry, Volume 170, Issue 1, January 2026.
Alterations in oxytocin signaling are strongly implicated in the social and cognitive deficits characterizing Autism Spectrum Disorder (ASD) and other neurodevelopmental conditions. However, the precise mechanisms remain unclear. The zebrafish (Danio rerio) has emerged as a powerful translational model due to its evolutionarily conserved oxytocin ...

Acute effect of an infusion of Montanoa tomentosa on despair-like behavior and activation of oxytocin hypothalamic cells in Wistar rats

Journal of Traditional and Complementary Medicine, 2020
Background and aim: In Mexican traditional medicine, Montanoa tomentosa (Mt) has been used as a remedy for reproductive impairments and mood swings. In pre-clinical research, both the extract and some of its active metabolites have produced oxytocinergic-

Optogenetic stimulation of the median preoptic nucleus: Effects on hypothalamic paraventricular nucleus magnocellular neurons after chronic intermittent hypoxia exposure

Journal of Neuroendocrinology, Volume 38, Issue 1, January 2026.
Abstract Median preoptic nucleus (MnPO) neurons projecting to the hypothalamic paraventricular nucleus (PVN) are linked to hypertension induced by chronic intermittent hypoxia (CIH), a model of obstructive sleep apnea. The modulation of MnPO‐driven synaptic activity in PVN magnocellular neurons (MNCs) by CIH remains unexamined.

Nerve Centers Affecting the Function of the Cardiovascular System

Majallah-i Dānishgāh-i ̒Ulūm-i Pizishkī-i Bābul, 2021
BACKGROUND AND OBJECTIVE: The activity of the cardiovascular system is carried out by the Autonomic Nervous System (ANS). ANS itself is controlled by multiple nerve centers.

SRC-1 Regulates Blood Pressure and Aortic Stiffness in Female Mice. [PDF]

PLoS ONE, 2016
Framingham Heart Study suggests that dysfunction of steroid receptor coactivator-1 may be involved in the development of hypertension. However, there is no functional evidence linking steroid receptor coactivator-1 to the regulation of blood pressure. We

Measuring spike coding in the rat supraoptic nucleus

The Journal of Physiology, 2004
Measuring spike coding objectively is essential to establish whether activity recorded under one set of conditions is truly different from that recorded under another set of conditions. However, there is no generally accepted method for making such comparisons. Measuring firing frequency alone only partially reflects spike patterning.

Identification of a novel protein containing two C2 domains selectively expressed in the rat brain and kidney [PDF]

, 1996
We have isolated and characterized a rat brain cDNA clone which encodes a new protein of 474 amino acids in length which contains two C2 domains structurally homologous to those present in synaptotagmins.

Development of the neurohypophysis: A major neuroendocrine interface

Journal of Neuroendocrinology, Volume 38, Issue 1, January 2026.
Abstract The neurohypophysis is a major central neuroendocrine interface regulating reproductive functions and water homeostasis. Distinct neurovascular cell types interact via evolutionarily conserved signaling molecules in the developing neurohypophysis, providing a model system for studying principles in neuroendocrine interface morphogenesis.

Developmental hypomyelination in Wolfram syndrome: New insights from neuroimaging and gene expression analyses [PDF]

, 2019
Wolfram syndrome is a rare multisystem disorder caused by mutations in WFS1 or CISD2 genes leading to brain structural abnormalities and neurological symptoms. These abnormalities appear in early stages of the disease.

Artificial feeding synchronizes behavioral, hormonal, metabolic and neural parameters in mother‐deprived neonatal rabbit pups [PDF]

, 2011
Nursing in the rabbit is under circadian control, and pups have a daily anticipatory behavioral arousal synchronized to this unique event, but it is not known which signal is the main entraining cue. In the present study, we hypothesized that food is the
