1. Corticotropin-releasing factor receptor signaling and modulation: implications for stress response and resilience
Abstract Introduction In addition to their role in regulation of the hypothalamic-pituitary-adrenal-axis, corticotropin-releasing factor (CRF) and its related peptides, the urocortins, are important mediators of physiological and pathophysiological processes of the central nervous, cardiovascular, gastrointestinal, immune, endocrine, reproductive, and skin

2. Stress, strain, and pregnancy outcome in postpartum cows
Abstract Stress affects the productivity and fertility of cattle. Stress causes strain and individual animals experience different amounts of strain in response to the same amount of stress. The amount of strain determines the impact of stress on fertility. Typical stresses experienced by cattle include environmental, disease, production, nutritional, and ps

3. Acute Physical Stress Preconditions the Heart Against Ischemia/Reperfusion Injury Through Activation of Sympathetic Nervous System
Resumo Fundamento: O estresse é definido como um estado complicado de distúrbios da homeostase, hiperatividade do sistema nervoso simpático e das respostas do eixo hipotálamo-hipófise-adrenal. O pré-condicionamento cardíaco diminui os danos do miocárdio. Objetivo: Esse estudo avaliou os efeitos cardioprotetores do estresse físico agudo contra a le

4. Opioids in the immune system: from experimental studies to clinical practice
RESUMO INTRODUÇÃO: Os opioides interagem com ambos os sistemas imunes, inato e adaptativo, através de efeitos diretos sobre os receptores dos opioides localizados nas células imunes. As pesquisas neste assunto têm fornecido evidência da influência dos opioides sobre a resposta imune associada ao estresse cirúrgico. Os efeitos imunológicos dos opioi

5. Different levels of brain-derived neurotrophic factor and cortisol in healthy heavy smokers
Studies suggest that brain-derived neurotrophic factor (BDNF) and the hypothalamic-pituitary-adrenal (HPA) axis modulate dopaminergic activity in response to nicotine and that the concentrations of BDNF and cortisol seem to be dependent on the amount and duration of smoking. Therefore, we investigated BDNF and cortisol levels in smokers ranked by daily cigar

6. Salivary cortisol and α-amylase: subclinical indicators of stress as cardiometabolic risk
Currently, the potential for cardiovascular (CV) stress-induced risk is primarily based on the theoretical (obvious) side effects of stress on the CV system. Salivary cortisol and α-amylase, produced respectively by the hypothalamus-pituitary-adrenal (HPA) axis and the sympathetic-adrenomedullary (SAM) system during stress response, are still not included i

7. Neural regulation of the stress response: glucocorticoid feedback mechanisms
The mammalian stress response is an integrated physiological and psychological reaction to real or perceived adversity. Glucocorticoids are an important component of this response, acting to redistribute energy resources to both optimize survival in the face of challenge and to restore homeostasis after the immediate challenge has subsided. Release of glucoc

8. Investigação das alterações do consumo de alimento palatável induzidas por trauma precoce em ratas fêmeas
Introduction: Chronic stress in adulthood increases anxiety and prones the individuals to use palatable foods as ¿comfort foods¿, which seems to be mediated by an altered functioning of the hypothalamus-pituitary-adrenal axis (HPA). We aimed at verifying if early life stress also affects anxiety, feeding behavior and stress responses in adult female rats.

9. N-metil-3,4 metilenodioximetanfetamina (MDMA - Ecstasy) diminui a resposta imune inata e a resistência à Listeria monocytogenes: papel do eixo HPA e do sistema nervoso simpático / N-metyl-3,4 methylendioxymethamphetamine (MDMA Ecstasy) decreases innate immunity response and host resistence to Listeria monocytogenes: role for HPA axis and Sympathetic Nervous System
Ecstasy é o nome popular do 3,4-metilenodioximetanfetamina (MDMA), uma droga de abuso utilizada por adultos jovens. Diversos relatos têm mostrado existência de correlações positivas entre o abuso do Ecstasy e o aparecimento de doenças infecciosas. Muitos estudos em modelos animais mostram que o MDMA induz alterações de imunidade inata e adquirida; en

10. Efeito modulador da ouabaína no sistema imunológico
Initially known as a cardiotonic steroid capable to inhibit the Na+/K+ATPase, ouabain was identified as an endogenous substance present in human plasma, produced by the adrenal, pituitary and hypothalamus and can interfere with various aspects of immune response. In this study, which aimed to study the modulating effect of ouabain on the immune system in viv

11. Maternal undernutrition and the offspring kidney: from fetal to adult life
Maternal dietary protein restriction during pregnancy is associated with low fetal birth weight and leads to renal morphological and physiological changes. Different mechanisms can contribute to this phenotype: exposure to fetal glucocorticoid, alterations in the components of the renin-angiotensin system, apoptosis, and DNA methylation. A low-protein diet d

12. Central actions of glucocorticoids in the control of body fluid homeostasis: Review
The involvement of the hypothalamic-pituitary-adrenal axis in the control of body fluid homeostasis has been extensively investigated in the past few years. In the present study, we reviewed the recent results obtained using different approaches to investigate the effects of glucocorticoids on the mechanisms of oxytocin and vasopressin synthesis and secretio
