Exposure and/or sensitivity to stress have been implicated as conferring risk for development
of Alzheimer's disease (AD). Although the basis for such a link remains unclear, we …

Compelling evidence suggests that pathological activity of the external globus pallidus (GPe),
a nucleus in the basal ganglia, contributes to the motor symptoms of a variety of movement …

The importance of a precisely coordinated neuroendocrine, autonomic, and behavioral
stress response was a primary theme at the Stress Neurobiology Workshop 2018, held in the …

Within the basal ganglia circuit, the external globus pallidus (GPe) is critically involved in motor
control. Aside from Foxp2 + neurons and ChAT + neurons that have been established as …

Stress is critically involved in the development and progression of disease. From the stress of
undergoing treatments to facing your own mortality, the physiological processes that stress …

In addition to its established role in initiating the endocrine arm of the stress response,
corticotropin‐releasing factor (CRF) can act in the brain to modulate neural pathways that effect …

Cripto is a multifunctional cell surface protein with important roles in vertebrate embryogenesis
and the progression of human tumors. While Cripto has been shown to modulate multiple …

Corticotropin-releasing factor (CRF) neurons in the hypothalamic paraventricular nucleus (PVN)
initiate hypothalamic–pituitary–adrenal axis activity through the release of CRF into the …

The functional identity of an olfactory neuron is determined in large part by the odorant
receptors it expresses. As an approach toward understanding the events that underlie the …

Amyloid precursor protein (APP) has been strongly implicated in the pathogenesis of
Alzheimer's disease (AD). Although impaired synaptic function is believed to be an early and …
