Neuropeptides in the human brainstem
(2018)
The physiological importance of the brainstem has made it one of the most studied structures of the central nervous system of mammals (in-cluding human). This structure receives somatic and visceral inputs and its neurons ...
Neurochemical coding of the enteric nervous system in chagasic patients with megacolon
(Springer Science, 2023)
Differential patterns of expression of neuropeptide Y throughout abstinence in outbred Swiss mice classified as susceptible or resistant to ethanol-induced locomotor sensitization
(Elsevier B.V., 2014-02-01)
Several studies have focused on the negative emotional state associated with drug abstinence. the peptide NPY plays an important role given its involvement in drug addiction, anxiety, and mood disorders. Interestingly, it ...
Communication between circadian clusters: the key to a plastic network
(Wiley, 2015-08)
Drosophila melanogaster is a model organism that has been instrumental in understanding the circadian clock at different levels. A range of studies on the anatomical and neurochemical properties of clock neurons in the fly ...
Luteinizing-hormone-releasing hormone modifies retention of passive and active avoidance responses in rats
(Springer-Verlag, 1985)
The influence of posttraining subcutaneous administration of luteinizing-hormone-releasing hormone (LHRH) was tested on the retention of either active or passive avoidance conditioning in male rats. Injection of LHRH ...
Identification of G protein coupled receptors for opsines and neurohormones in Rhodnius prolixus. Genomic and transcriptomic analysis
(Pergamon-Elsevier Science Ltd, 2016-02)
The importance of Chagas disease motivated the scientific effort to obtain the complete genomic sequence of the vector species Rhodnius prolixus, this information is also relevant to the understanding of triatomine biology ...
Cafeteria diet induces progressive changes in hypothalamic mechanisms involved in food intake control at different feeding periods in female rats
(NLM (Medline), 2019-12-01)
We studied the effects of cafeteria diet (CAF) intake from weaning on mRNA levels and DNA methylation state of feeding-related neuropeptides and hormone receptors in individual hypothalamic nuclei at different feeding ...
Transcriptomics supports local sensory regulation in the antenna of the kissing-bug Rhodnius prolixus
(BioMed Central, 2020-01-30)
Background: Rhodnius prolixus has become a model for revealing the molecular bases of insect sensory biology due to the publication of its genome and its well-characterized behavioural repertoire. Gene expression modulation ...
Functional proteomics of neuropeptidome dynamics during the feeding process of Rhodnius prolixus
(American Chemical Society, 2011-08)
In hematophagous insects, blood intake triggers a prompt response mediated by neuropeptides, which regulates a variety of physiological processes. Here we report a quantitative proteomic analysis of the postfeeding response ...
Identificação de peptídeos intracelulares em cérebro de camundongos submetidos à privação e restrição de sono
(Universidade Federal de São Paulo (UNIFESP), 2016-04-30)
Neuropeptides have a fundamental role in the functioning of the whole organism and in particular in the central nervous system. The activity of a number of neuropeptides, especially interaction with their receptors has ...
