Corticotropin-releasing Factor
Introduction Immunoreactivity similar to that of corticotropin-releasing factor (CRF) is found in regions of the central nervous system that modulate autonomic responses, including gastrointestinal functions. We examined the central nervous system effects of ovine CRF on gastric acid secretion in conscious dogs. Male beagle dogs (11-13 kg) were fitted with chronic intracerebroventricular cannul...
متن کاملCorticotropin releasing factor in neuroplasticity.
Stress is among the strongest signals promoting neuroplasticity: Stress signals, indicating real or perceived danger, lead to alterations of neuronal function and often structure, designed to adapt to the changed conditions and promote survival. Corticotropin releasing factor (CRF) is expressed and released in several types of neuronal populations that are involved in cognition, emotion and the...
متن کاملRegulation of vertebrate corticotropin-releasing factor genes.
Developmental, physiological, and behavioral adjustments in response to environmental change are crucial for animal survival. In vertebrates, the neuroendocrine stress system, comprised of the hypothalamus, pituitary, and adrenal/interrenal glands (HPA/HPI axis) plays a central role in adaptive stress responses. Corticotropin-releasing factor (CRF) is the primary hypothalamic neurohormone regul...
متن کاملCorticotropin-releasing factor, neuroplasticity (sensitization), and alcoholism.
S ensitization is a ubiquitous biological phenomenon that has a role in the neuroadaptation of many different functions, from learning and memory to stress responsivity. Historically, a specific form of sensitization termed psychomotor sensitization (mistermed in my view as ‘‘behavioral sensitization’’) is induced by repeated administration of drugs of abuse and has been linked to the neuroadap...
متن کاملCentral corticotropin releasing factor and social stress
Social interactions are a main source of stress in vertebrates. Social stressors, as well as other stressors, activate the hypothalamic-pituitary-adrenal (HPA) axis resulting in glucocorticoid release. One of the main components of the HPA axis is corticotropin releasing factor (CRF). The neuropeptide CRF is part of a peptide family including CRF, urocortin 1-3, urotensin 1-3, and sauvagine. Th...
