Why goldfish? Merits and challenges in employing goldfish as a model organism in comparative endocrinology research
(Academic Press Inc Elsevier Science, 2018-02)
Goldfish has been used as an unconventional model organism to study a number of biological processes. For example, goldfish is a well-characterized and widely used model in comparative endocrinology, especially in ...
Comparative neurobiology and genetics of mammalian social behavior
(John Wiley & Sons, 2016)
Despite advances in our understanding of the ecological and evolutionary factorsthat drive sociality, relatively little is known about the genetic and neurobiological mechanisms underlying group living. Decades of laboratory ...
Guinea Pig Gonadotropin-Releasing Hormone: Expression Pattern, Characterization and Biological Activity in Rodents
(Karger, 2002-12)
Gonadotropin-releasing hormone (GnRH) is a decapeptide widely known for its role in regulating vertebrate reproduction by serving as a signal from the hypothalamus to pituitary gonadotropes. The first form of GnRH to be ...
Stress and the Reproductive Axis
(British Society for Neuroendocrinology, 2014)
There exists a reciprocal relationship between the hypothalamic-pituitary-adrenal (HPA) and the
hypothalamic-pituitary-gonadal (HPG) axes, wherein the activation of one affects the function
of the other and vice versa. ...

Expression of neurotensin and its receptors in pituitary adenomas
(WILEY-BLACKWELL, 2008)
The neurotensin (NT) produced in the hypothalamus and in pituitary gonadotrophs and thyrotrophs participates in neuroendocrine regulation. Recently, the involvement of this peptide in normal and neoplastic cell proliferation ...
Optimizing Medical Therapy of Acromegaly: Beneficial Effects of Cabergoline in Patients Uncontrolled with Long-Acting Release Octreotide
(KARGER, 2009)
Background: Previous data indicate a beneficial effect of cabergoline (CAB) association to somatostatin analogs (SA) in acromegalics resistant to SA monotherapy. Objective: To assess the efficacy of CAB association on ...
Ovarian-Steroid Modulation of Locus Coeruleus Activity in Female Rats: Involvement in Luteinising Hormone Regulation
(WILEY-BLACKWELL PUBLISHING, INC, 2009)
The noradrenergic nucleus locus coeruleus (LC) has been reported to regulate luteinising hormone (LH) secretion in female rats. Both oestrogen and progestin receptors have been demonstrated in LC neurones, suggesting that ...
Discontinuous vs. continuous drinking of ethanol in peripubertal rats : effect on 24-hour pattern of hypophyseal-gonadal axis activity and anterior pituitary oxidative stress
(Karger Publishers, 2012)
Abstract: Aims. Discontinuous (weekend) consumption of alcohol is common in adolescents
and young adults. This study therefore assesses, in peripubertal male rats, the
effect of discontinuous as compared to chronic feeding ...
