Tsuda; Ryohei Kurihara; Yukinori Kato; Yoshiko Kuroda; Mariko Nakata; Kai Xiao; Kazuyo Nagata; Katsumi Toda; Sonoko Ogawa The principal nucleus of the bed nucleus of the stria terminalis (BNSTp) is a sexually dimorphic nucleus, and the male BNSTp is larger and has more...

... histochemistry was employed to measure the mRNAs encoding CRH and its receptors. In fa / fa rats, food deprivation induced a rapid expression of Fos in CRH cells of several brain regions that include the paraventricular hypothalamic nucleus (PVN), the bed nucleus of the stria terminalis (BNST), the anterodorsal...

... by castration and T replacement was found to regulate the expression of VP mRNA in the bed nucleus of the stria terminalis and medial amygdala of LE and HET rats, but does not appear to modify the absence of VP mRNA in neurons in these nuclei in the HOM rat. 22 03 1993 9 07 1993 8 4 2008 ©...

... of the brain. Previous studies have demonstrated a discrete locus of AII receptor binding sites and responsiveness within the POAH to microinjections of AII in the adult female rat, corresponding to the ventral portion of the bed nucleus of the stria terminalis (BSTV). To further characterize the age- and sex...

... corresponds to the area of the POAH from which Ang II is most effective at eliciting luteinizing hormone release, has been identified as the ventral portion of the bed nucleus of the stria terminalis (BSTV) by the rat brain atlas of Paxinos and Watson. The selective nonpeptidic Ang II α receptor antagonist...

... characteristics of SHBG in the hypothalamus and cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) of humans. SHBG-immunoreactive neurons were observed in the supraoptic nucleus, the suprachiasmatic nucleus, the bed nucleus of the stria terminalis, paraventricular nucleus, arcuate nucleus, the perifornical region and the medial preoptic...

... brain regions implicated in appetite control, including the arcuate, dorsomedial and periventricular nuclei of the hypothalamus, the amygdala, the bed nucleus of the stria terminalis and the nucleus accumbens, and treatment of FAAH –/– mice with rimonabant, 3 mg/kg/day for 7 days, increased CART levels...

... and presented with pups for 2 h. Approximately half of the subjects administered estrogen alone showed maternal behavior, but subjects receiving the other treatments were not maternal. In the MPOA, ventral bed nucleus of the stria terminalis (BSTv), and dorsal and intermediate lateral septum (LSd,i), maternal...

...-immunoreactive (ERα-ir) neurons did not differ between the two groups in the eight areas analyzed (lateral region of the lateral septum, posterodorsal medial amygdala, dorsal and ventral medial preoptic area, dorsal and ventral bed nucleus of the stria terminalis, lateral habenula, and ventrolateral caudal...

... variations. Distinctive groups of GAL-IR cells were present in the bed nucleus of stria terminalis (BNST), supraoptic nucleus, retrochiasmatic supraoptic nucleus (SOR), magnocellular paraventricular nucleus, arcuate nucleus (ARC) and the nucleus circularis which is one of the cell groups belonging...

... , H222 or 1D5 anti-ER primary antibodies were visualized, respectively, with cyanine-conjugated, fluorescein- or cyanine-conjugated, and fluorescein-conjugated secondary antibodies in male rats which were killed 1 h after ejaculating with a receptive female. In MPN, bed nucleus of the stria terminalis...
