This Review summarizes the data showing that adipocytes express the specific receptors for nearly all known pituitary hormones and hypothalamic releasing factors. The existence of a hypothalamic ...

The hypothalamus controls the release of 8 major hormones by the pituitary gland, body temperature, food and water intake, sexual behavior and reproduction, control of daily cycles known as ...

A HYPOTHALAMIC luteinizing hormone releasing factor, which is active in rats and rabbits, has been purified and separated from other hypothalamic factors which control the function of the ...

Regulation of thyroid hormone (TH) levels is a complex multilevel phenomenon. The paraventricular nucleus (PVN) of the hypothalamus (the region of the brain that controls the involuntary nervous ...

Hormones secreted by the hypothalamus include the so-called releasing hormones, such as the corticotropin-releasing hormone (CRH). This stimulates the production of the adrenocorticotropic hormone ...

Growth hormone is involved with growth (proteins, bone) and mobilization of energy reserves (carbohydrates and lipids) in salmon. It is thus an important hormone for migrating salmon during periods of ...

Certain endocrine hormones may not have been measured at all; others may only have basal state measurements, and thus require re-assay after stimulation (e.g., measuring levels of circulating ...

Loss of hypothalamic corticotropin-releasing hormone markedly reduces anxiety behaviors in mice. Molecular Psychiatry, 2016; DOI: 10.1038/mp.2016.136 ...
