The relationship between neuronal impulse activity and neurotransmitter release remains
elusive. This issue is especially poorly understood in the neuroendocrine system, with its …

Neuroendocrine tuberoinfundibular dopamine (TIDA) neurons tonically inhibit pituitary
release of the hormone, prolactin. Through the powerful actions of prolactin in promoting …

Balance in the body9s hormonal axes depends on feedback onto neuroendocrine
hypothalamic neurons. This phenomenon involves transcriptional and biosynthetic effects …

The pituitary hormone, prolactin, triggers lactation in nursing mothers. Under nonlactating
conditions, prolactin secretion is suppressed by powerful inhibition from hypothalamic …

Small assemblies of hypothalamic “parvocellular” neurons release their neuroendocrine
signals at the median eminence (ME) to control long-lasting pituitary hormone rhythms …

Tuberoinfundibular dopamine (TIDA) neurons are the central regulators of prolactin (PRL)
secretion. Their extensive functional plasticity allows a change from low PRL secretion in the …

The secretion of prolactin from the pituitary is negatively controlled by tuberoinfundibular
dopamine (TIDA) neurones. The electrical properties of TIDA cells have recently been …

Tuberoinfundibular dopamine (TIDA) neurons have cell bodies located in the arcuate
nucleus of the mediobasal hypothalamus. They project to the external zone of the median …

The mesolimbic dopamine projection from the ventral tegmental area (VTA) to nucleus
accumbens (NAc) is a key pathway for reward-driven learning, and for the motivation to work …

Dopamine (DA) midbrain neurons project to several striatal and cortical target areas and are
essentially involved in a puzzling variety of important brain functions such as action …
