Glucose homeostasis is maintained by complex neuroendocrine control mechanisms, involving three peripheral organs: the liver, pancreas, and adrenal gland, all of which are under control of the autonomic nervous system. During the past decade, abundant results from various studies on neuroendocrine
The effect of centrally administered galanin (Gal; 100 pM i.c.v.) on the hypothalamo-neurohypophysial storage as well as blood plasma level of vasopressin and oxytocin was estimated in haemorrhaged (1 ml per 100 g b.w.) male Wistar rats. Gal i.c.v. treatment did not alter vasopressin and oxytocin
Thromboembolic complications are a significant cause of mortality and re-hospitalization in heart failure (HF) patients. One source of thrombi is the ventricular endocardial surface that becomes increasingly pro-thrombotic as HF progresses. Anticoagulation comes with bleeding risks so identifying
A technique combining retrograde tracing of wheat germ-conjugated gold particles with immunocytochemical demonstration of enkephalin-containing neurons was used to study intramedullary enkephalin-containing pathways to the pressor area of the rostral ventrolateral medulla in rabbits. The rostral
The occurrence and distribution of peptide-containing nerve fibers to the cerebral circulation are described. Immunocytochemical studies have revealed that cerebral blood vessels are invested with nerve fibers containing neuropeptide Y (NPY), vasoactive intestinal peptide (VIP), peptide histidine
