during stress 577 1.2. The diurnal rhythm of HPA activity 579 2. Roles of corticotropin …

Vasopressin and oxytocin are made and released by neurons of the hypothalamo-
neurohypophysial system. Pulse labeling these neurons with radioactive amino acid …

Vasopressin and oxytocin pathways were specifically localized in glutaraldehyde-
paraformaldehyde fixed rat brains, with the use of the unlabelled antibody enzyme method …

Peripheral cells talk to each other via hormones. The message, although diffused into the
bloodstream, is picked up selectively by those groups of cells that possess specific receptors …

An immunocytochemical analysis with 33 antisera was undertaken to investigate the
localization of 25 different neurotransmitter-related antigens in the hypothalamic …

Immuno-enzyme histochemical investigations showed that, in the magnocellular
hypothalamo-hypophysial neurosecretory system of the rat, vasopressin and oxytocin are …

Vasopressin (VP) potentiates the effect of corticotropin-releasing factor (CRF) on the
secretion of adrenocorticotropic hormone (ACTH) from anterior pituitary cells in vitro 1–3 …

The suprachiasmatic nuclei (SCN) serve as the principal circadian pacemakers that
coordinate daily cycles of behavior and physiology for mammals. A network of transcriptional …

The efferent projections of the parvocellular vasopressin‐and neurophysin‐containing
neurons of the suprachiasmatic nucleus (SCN) have been investigated in the mouse, rat and …
