    Electrophysiological Methods for Studying Endocrine Cells and Neuronal Activity from the Hypothalamo-hypophyseal System

    The hypothalamo-hypophyseal system brings nerve and endocrine cells together in one anatomical entity such that the nervous system and the glandular cells of the anterior hypophysis communicate. The two struct...

    Release of oxytocin within the supraoptic nucleus during the milk ejection reflex in rats

    To investigate the hypothesis that oxytocin may be released within the magnocellular nuclei in vivo, push-pull cannula perfusions were performed in anaesthetized lactating rats in one supraoptic nucleus of the...

    Neuronal-Glial and Synaptic Plasticity in the Adult Oxytocinergic System

    The magnocellular neurones that secrete oxytocin occur in the same hypothalamic regions in which one also finds the neurones secreting vasopressin (mainly the supraoptic (NSO) and paraventricular nuclei (PVN))...

    Effects of Estrogens on the Electrophysiological Properties of Neurons and Adenohypophyseal Cells: Interactions with Dopamine

    Apart from their classical action through the genetic protein synthesizing system, estrogens have been shown to influence the electrophysiological properties of both neuronal (Dufy et al., 1976; Moss & Dudley,...

    Effects of intracerebroventricular injections of angiotensin II on prolactin plasma levels in the Rhesus monkey

    Intracerebroventricular injections of angiotensin II (A II) induced a sharp and dose-dependent increase in plasma prolactin (PRL) levels in the awake Rhesus monkey. Our results suggest that in primates, A II m...

    Steroids and Membrane-Associated Events in Neurons and Pituitary Cells

    Classically we are accustomed to differentiating between the mechanisms of action of sex steroids on one hand, and those of peptide hormones and neurotransmitters on the other. Peptide hormones were shown to f...

    Electrophysiological evidence for connections between septal neurones and the supraoptic nucleus of the hypothalamus of the rat

    In order to see whether septal neurones are connected to the hypothalamic neurones secreting vasopressin or oxytocin, neurones in different regions of the septum were recorded during electrical stimulation of ...

    Intracellular Recordings from Prolactin-Secreting Pituitary Cells in Culture: Evidence for a Direct Action of Estrogen on the Cell Membrane

    The effects of sex steroids on the central nervous system are commonly explained according to the general scheme of steroid hormone action involving the nucleus following binding to a cytoplasmic receptor and ...

    Effects of sex steroids on cell membrane excitability: a new concept for the action of steroids on the brain

    The functions of the brain depend largely upon the complex interactions of nervous and hormonal factors. Indeed, it is gradually emerging that the only way to account for brain mechanisms which have a physiolo...

    Demonstration of indolaminergic fibres in the median eminence of the duck, rat and monkey

    MANY reports provide physiological evidence that monoaminergic (catecholaminergic and serotonergic) systems are involved in the control of the secretion of the hypothalamic hormones (releasing factors) at the ...

    Effects of vaginal stimulation on hypothalamic single units in unanesthetized rabbits
