DOI: 10.1038/s41598-019-52658-9
Abstract: A lateralized distribution of neuropeptidase activities in the frontal cortex of normotensive and hypertensive rats has been described depending on the use of some vasoactive drugs and linked to certain mood disorders. Asymmetrical neuroperipheral connections… read more here.

DOI: 10.1097/hjh.0000000000002342
Abstract: OBJECTIVE Neuroinflammation in the rostral ventrolateral medulla (RVLM) has been reported to be associated with hypertension. The upregulation and activation of the cannabinoid type 2 (CB2) receptor may be part of the active process of… read more here.

DOI: 10.1152/physiol.2023.38.s1.5714744
Abstract: Behavioral inhibition (BI) is believed to be a genetically determined trait that affects roughly 33% of the human population. These individuals tend to respond to stressful situations differently than their non-behaviorally inhibited (NBI) counterparts. In… read more here.

DOI: 10.17576/jsm-2021-5002-19
Abstract: We have shown previously, acute intraperitoneal administration of 2-deoxy-d-glucose (2DG) into Sprague-Dawley rats led to activation of the adrenal medulla chromaffin cells, indicated with increased protein kinase activity and increased tyrosine hydroxylase (TH) phosphorylation, as… read more here.

DOI: 10.3390/nu15020280
Abstract: Prolactin-releasing peptide (PrRP) is an anorexigenic neuropeptide that has potential for the treatment of obesity and its complications. Recently, we designed a palmitoylated PrRP31 analog (palm11-PrRP31) that is more stable than the natural peptide and… read more here.
