Pituitary adenylate cyclase-activating polypeptide (PACAP) is a 27-or 38-amino acid
neuropeptide, which belongs to the vasoactive intestinal polypeptide/glucagon/secretin …

Brain development is a complex process, controlled in part by locally secreted factors that
regulate proliferation, differentiation, migration, survival, and maturation. Pituitary adenylate …

Planarians display remarkable plasticity in maintenance of their germline, with the ability to
develop or dismantle reproductive tissues in response to systemic and environmental cues …

Parkinson's disease (PD) is characterized by a steady loss of dopamine neurons through
apoptotic, inflammatory and oxidative stress processes. In that line of view, the pituitary …

Pituitary adenylate cyclase-activating polypeptide (PACAP) and vasoactive intestinal
peptide (VIP) through the binding of vasoactive intestinal peptide receptors (VIPRs), perform …

We measured serum CORT elevation in wild-type and PACAP-deficient C57BL/6N male
mice after acute (1 h) or prolonged (2–3 h) daily restraint stress for 7 d. The PACAP …

Parkinson's disease (PD) is a neurodegenerative disorder that leads to destruction of the
midbrain dopaminergic (DA) neurons. This phenomenon is related to apoptosis and its …

In many species, seasonal variation in grouping behavior is widespread, with shifts towards
territoriality in the breeding season and grouping in the winter. Compared to the hormonal …

The hypothalamic activation of thyroid hormones by type 2 deiodinase (D2), catalyzing the
conversion of thyroxine to T3, is critical for the proper function of the hypothalamo-pituitary …

We studied the effect of activating histamine H 3 receptors (H 3 Rs) on rat nucleus
accumbens (rNAcc) dopaminergic transmission by analyzing [3 H]-dopamine uptake by …
