Introduction Suicide in bipolar disorder (BD) is a multifaceted behavior, involving specific neuroendocrine and psychological mechanisms. According to previous studies, we hypothesized that suicidal BD patients may exhibit impaired dynamic functional connectivity (dFC) variability of hippocampal subregions and hypothalamic-pituitary-adrenal (HPA) axis activity, which may be associate with suicide-related personality traits. The objective of our study was to clarify this. Methods Resting-state functional magnetic resonance imaging data were obtained from 79 patients with BD, 39 with suicidal attempt (SA) and 40 without SA, and 35 healthy controls...

Pheochromocytomas and paragangliomas (PPGLs) are rare neuroendocrine tumours that produce catecholamines. [131I] MIBG-avid unresectable or metastatic PPGLs are treated with [131I] MIBG therapy. A high metabolic tumour volume (MTV) and total lesion glycolysis (TLG) can be poor prognostic factors. Therefore, we evaluated the metabolic responses to [131I] MIBG therapy with respect to other clinical factors.A retrospective study was performed on a series of 20 patients who underwent FDG-PET before and after [131I] MIBG therapy...

INTRODUCTION: Lymph node metastasis of nonfunctioning pancreatic neuroendocrine neoplasms (pNENs) potentially leads to poor survival. Given the contradictory results in the literature regarding factors associated with lymph node metastasis of nonfunctioning pNENs, we conducted a systematic review and meta-analysis to determine the preoperative predictors of lymph node metastasis. METHODS: Original studies reporting factors associated with lymph node metastasis in patients with nonfunctioning pNENs were identified in PubMed, EMBASE, and Cochrane Library databases, and data from eligible studies were analyzed using random-effects meta-analysis to obtain pooled estimates of odds ratios (OR) and their 95% confidence intervals (CI)...

INTRODUCTION: The proposed evolutionary origins and corresponding nomenclature of bilaterian gonadotropin-releasing hormone (GnRH)-related neuropeptides have changed tremendously with the aid of receptor deorphanization. However, the reclassification of the GnRH and corazonin (CRZ) signaling systems in Lophotrochozoa remains unclear. METHODS: We characterized GnRH and CRZ receptors in the mollusk Pacific abalone, Haliotis discus hannai (Hdh), by phylogenetic and gene expression analyses, bioluminescence-based reporter, western blotting, substitution of peptide amino acids, in vivo neuropeptide injection, and RNA interference assays...

The ventromedial hypothalamic nucleus (VMN) is an estrogen receptor (ER)-rich structure that regulates glucostasis. The role of nuclear, but not membrane G-protein-coupled ER-1 (GPER) in that function has been studied. Gene silencing and laser-catapult-microdissection/immunoblot tools were used to examine whether GPER regulates transmitter and energy sensor function in dorsomedial (VMNdm) and/or ventrolateral (VMNvl) VMN counter-regulatory nitrergic and -aminobutyric acid (GABA) neurons. Intra-VMN GPER siRNA administration to euglycemic animals did not affect VMNdm or -vl nitrergic neuron neuron nitric oxide synthase (nNOS), but up-regulated (VMNdm) or lacked influence on (VMNvl) GABA nerve cell glutamate decarboxylase65/67 (GAD) protein...

INTRODUCTION: Growth hormone secretion by sporadic somatotroph neuroendocrine pituitary tumors (PitNETs) is major cause of acromegaly. These tumors are relatively heterogenous in terms of histopathological and molecular features. Our previous transcriptomic profiling of somatotroph tumors revealed three distinct molecular subtypes. This study was aimed to investigate difference in DNA methylation pattern in subtypes of somatotroph PitNETs and its role in distinctive gene expression. METHODS: Genome-wide DNA methylation was investigated in 48 somatotroph PitNETs with EPIC microarrays...

Practice of neuroendocrine neoplasms (NENs) of the digestive tract, which comprise a highly diverse group of tumors with a rising incidence, faces multiple biological, diagnostic, and therapeutic issues. Part of these issues are due to misuse and misinterpretation of the classification and terminology of NENs of the digestive tract, which make it increasingly challenging to evaluate and compare literature. For instance, grade 3 neuroendocrine tumors (NETs) are frequently referred to as neuroendocrine carcinomas (NECs) and vice versa, while NECs are by definition high grade and therefore constitute a separate entity from NETs...

Hypertension is among the most harmful factors of cardiovascular and cerebrovascular diseases and poses an urgent problem for the development of human society. In addition to previous studies on its pathogenesis focusing on the peripheral sympathetic nervous system, investigating the central causes of high blood pressure involving the neuroendocrine and neuroinflammatory mechanisms of the hypothalamic paraventricular nucleus (PVN) is paramount. This nucleus is considered to regulate the output of neurohormones and sympathetic nerve activity...

Introduction Sex steroid hormone fluctuations may underlie both reproductive disorders and sex difference in lifetime depression prevalence. Previous studies report high comorbidity among reproductive disorders and between reproductive disorders and depression. This study sought to assess the multivariate genetic architecture of reproductive disorders and their loading onto a common genetic factor, and investigated whether this latent factor shares a common genetic architecture with female depression, including perinatal depression (PND)...

INTRODUCTION: In the hippocampus, clock gene expression is important for memory and mood; however, the signaling mechanism controlling clock gene expression in the hippocampus is unknown. Recent findings suggest that circadian glucocorticoid rhythms driven by the suprachiasmatic nucleus (SCN) control rhythmic clock gene expression in neurons; in addition, dexamethasone modulates hippocampal clock gene expression. We therefore hypothesized that oscillations of clock genes in the hippocampus could be driven by SCN-controlled circadian rhythms in glucocorticoids...

INTRODUCTION: Olfaction and its relation to human health is an area of growing interest. Although olfaction disorders have been considered a part of Kallmann Syndrome, the role of olfactory dysfunction on spermatogenesis has not been studied yet. We studied if olfactory bulbectomy causes dysfunction in spermatogenesis as a result of Onuf's nucleus damage. METHODS: Twenty-eight male rats were divided into three groups: six as the control (G-1; n=6), six as the only frontal burr-hole applied animals SHAM (G-1I; n=6), and 16 as the study group (G-III; n=16) in which OBX was performed...

INTRODUCTION: The mPOA is an important regulator of natural and drug-induced reward. It contains one of the brain's highest concentrations of sex-steroid hormone receptors and connects with the mesolimbic dopamine system. However, despite the mPOA being implicated in sexually dimorphic reward responses, sex differences in medial preoptic efferents to the VTA have not been investigated. METHODS: Male and female rats received unilateral injections of the tract-tracer Fluoro-Gold (FLG) into VTA...

Hormones are important regulators of key processes during fetal brain development. Thus, the developing brain is vulnerable to the action of chemicals that can interfere with endocrine signals. Epidemiological studies have pointed toward sexually dimorphic associations between neurodevelopmental outcomes, such as cognitive abilities, in children and prenatal exposure to endocrine disrupting chemicals (EDCs). This points toward disruption of sex steroid signalling in the development of neural structures underlying cognitive functions, such as the hippocampus, an essential mediator of learning and memory processes...
