Multiple-scale neuroendocrine signals connect brain and pituitary hormone rhythms.
Small assemblies of hypothalamic "parvocellular" neurons release their neuroendocrine signals at the median eminence (ME) to control long-lasting pituitary hormone rhythms essential for homeostasis. How such rapid hypothalamic neurotransmission leads to slowly evolving hormonal signals remains unknown. Here, we show that the temporal organization of dopamine (DA) release events in freely behavi...
متن کاملBrain Rhythms Connect Impaired Inhibition to Altered Cognition in Schizophrenia
In recent years, schizophrenia research has focused on inhibitory interneuron dysfunction at the level of neurobiology and on cognitive impairments at the psychological level. Reviewing both experimental and computational findings, we show how the temporal structure of the activity of neuronal populations, exemplified by brain rhythms, can begin to bridge these levels of complexity. Oscillation...
متن کاملGonadotropin-inhibitory hormone action in the brain and pituitary
Gonadotropin-inhibitory hormone (GnIH) was first identified in the Japanese quail as a hypothalamic neuropeptide inhibitor of gonadotropin secretion. Subsequent studies have shown that GnIH is present in the brains of birds including songbirds, and mammals including humans. The identified avian and mammalian GnIH peptides universally possess an LPXRFamide (X = L or Q) motif at their C-termini. ...

“Environmental seasonality. . . a basic component of the ecosystem within which our ancestors evolved. . . left its mark indelibly upon the makeup of our biology and our behaviour.” ( Johnston, 1993) “the ability to perceive changes in daylength indicated by changes in the duration of melatonin secretion. . . is the only essential function attributable to melatonin in mammals to date.” (Arendt,...
متن کاملNeuroendocrine mechanisms that connect feeding behavior and stress
Research during the past decade highlights the strong link between appetitive feeding behavior, reward, and motivation. Interestingly, stress levels can affect feeding behavior by manipulating hypothalamic circuits and brain dopaminergic reward pathways. Indeed, animals and people will increase or decrease their feeding responses when stressed. In many cases, acute stress leads to a decrease in...
