Gonadotropin-inhibitory hormone-stimulation of food intake is mediated by hypothalamic effects in chicks
Abstract Gonadotropin-inhibitory hormone (GnIH), a 12 amino acid peptide, is expressed in
the avian brain and inhibits luteinizing hormone secretion. Additionally, exogenous injection …

The parental brain and behavior: A target for endocrine disruption
During pregnancy, the sequential release of progesterone, 17β-estradiol, prolactin, oxytocin
and placental lactogens reorganize the female brain. Brain structures such as the medial …

Neuropeptide Y is associated with changes in appetite-associated hypothalamic nuclei but not food intake in a hypophagic avian model
While neuropeptide Y (NPY) has been studied extensively per its pronounced role in food
intake stimulation as well as its role in central pathways governing eating disorders, it has to …
