Hypothalamo-pituitary and immune-dependent adrenal regulation during systemic inflammation.
Inflammation-related dysregulation of the hypothalamic-pituitary-adrenal (HPA) axis is central to the course of systemic inflammatory response syndrome or sepsis. The underlying mechanisms, however, are not well understood. Initial activation of adrenocortical hormone production during early sepsis depends on the stimulation of hypothalamus and pituitary mediated by cytokines; in late sepsis, t...
متن کاملCannabinoid-mediated regulation of the hypothalamo-pituitary-adrenal axis in rats: age dependent role of vasopressin.
OBJECTIVE Adaptation to stress is a fundamental component of life and the hypothalamo-pituitary-adrenocortical axis (HPA) plays a crucial role in it. The place of cannabinoid influence seems to be in the brain, especially where corticotropin releasing hormone and vasopressin (AVP) secreting neurons are located. The role of AVP is considered to be more important in young than in adult rats. Here...
متن کاملSpinal and supraspinal analgesic effects of Nimodipine : The role of Hypothalamo-Pituitary-Adrenal(HPA) axis .
Nimodipine, an L-type calcium channel blocker, can induce analgesia. However, it is not clear that this analgesic effect is at the level of spinal or supraspinal pain pathway. In addition, it has been reported that the analgesic effect of nifedipine, another L-type calcium channel blocker is related to the HPA axis, but there is no report indicating the role of this axis in the analgesic eff...
متن کاملNeuromedins U and S involvement in the regulation of the hypothalamo–pituitary–adrenal axis
We reviewed neuromedin U (NMU) and neuromedin S (NMS) involvement in the regulation of the hypothalamo-pituitary-adrenal (HPA) axis function. NMU and NMS are structurally related and highly conserved neuropeptides. They exert biological effects via two GPCR receptors designated as NMUR1 and NMUR2 which show differential expression. NMUR1 is expressed predominantly at the periphery, while NMUR2 ...
متن کاملStudy of hypothalamo pituitary adrenal axis in frail elderly subjects.
BACKGROUND Frail elderly people are at increased risk of death and disability from minor environmental stresses such as infection because they do not have the reserves to respond and maintain adequate homeostasis Studies have shown that elderly patients had a significantly smaller response to ACTH stimulation test. Due to paucity of data regarding HPA axis functioning in frail elderly in Indian...
