Neurogenesis occurs in the olfactory system of adult brain throughout life, both invertebrates and vertebrates, but its physiological regulation is not understood. We show that production neuronal progenitors stimulated forebrain subventricular zone female mice during pregnancy this effect mediated by hormone prolactin. The then migrate to produce new interneurons, a process likely be important for maternal behavior, because discrimination critical recognition rearing offspring. even females mate with sterile males. These findings imply neurogenesis may contribute adaptive behaviors mating pregnancy.

The corpus luteum (CL) is one of the few endocrine glands that forms from remains another organ and whose function survival are limited in scope time. CL site rapid remodeling, growth, differentiation, death cells originating granulosa, theca, capillaries, fibroblasts. apparent raison d’etre production progesterone, all structural functional features this gland geared toward end. Because its unique importance for successful pregnancies, mammals have evolved a complex series checks balances maintains progesterone at appropriate levels throughout gestation. formation, maintenance, regression, steroidogenesis among most significant closely regulated events mammalian reproduction. During pregnancy, fate depends on interplay ovarian, pituitary, placental regulators.

Prolactin (PRL) is a 23-kDa protein hormone that binds to single-span membrane receptor, member of the cytokine receptor superfamily, and exerts its action via several interacting signaling pathways. PRL multifunctional affects multiple reproductive metabolic functions also involved in tumorigenicity. In addition being classical pituitary hormone, humans produced by many tissues throughout body where it acts as cytokine. The objective this review compare contrast aspects PRL, from structure regulation, physiology pathology rats, mice, humans. At each juncture, questions are raised whether, or what extent, data rodents relevant homeostasis Most current knowledge on has been obtained studies with rats and, more recently, use transgenic mice. Although information indispensable for understanding human health disease, there sufficient disparity control production, distribution, physiological among these species warrant careful judicial extrapolation

The hypothalamic control of prolactin secretion is different from other anterior pituitary hormones, in that it predominantly inhibitory, by means dopamine the tuberoinfundibular neurons. In addition, does not have an endocrine target tissue, and therefore lacks classical feedback pathway to regulate its secretion. Instead, regulated short loop feedback, whereby itself acts brain stimulate production thereby inhibit own Finally, despite relatively simple name, has a broad range functions body, addition defining role promoting lactation. As such, hypothalamo-prolactin axis many characteristics are quite distinct hypothalamo-pituitary systems. This review will provide brief overview our current understanding neuroendocrine secretion, particular focusing on plasticity evident this system, which keeps at low levels most time, but enables extended periods hyperprolactinemia when necessary for Key beyond milk be discussed, particularly inducing adaptive responses multiple systems facilitate lactation, consequences if action impaired. A feature pleiotropic activity may lactating state might maladaptive elevated inappropriately. Overall, my goal give flavour both history field neuroendocrinology, identify some exciting new areas research development.

The hair cycle and follicle structure are highly affected by various hormones. Androgens—such as testosterone (T); dihydrotestosterone (DHT); their prohormones, dehydroepiandrosterone sulfate (DHEAS) androstendione (A)—are the key factors in terminal growth. They act on sex-specific areas of body, converting small, straight, fair vellus hairs into larger darker hairs. bind to intracellular androgen receptors dermal papilla cells follicle. majority follicles also require enzyme 5-alpha reductase convert DHT. Apart from androgens, role other hormones is currently being researched—e.g., estradiol can significantly alter growth binding estrogen influencing aromatase activity, which responsible for (E2). Progesterone, at level follicle, decreases conversion influence prolactin (PRL) has been intensively investigated, PRL were detected human scalp skin. Our review includes results many analyses provides a comprehensive up-to-date understanding subject effects hormonal changes
