Differential response patterns of kisspeptin and RFamide ‐related peptide to photoperiod and sex steroid feedback in the Djungarian hamster (Phodopus sungorus)
Many animals synchronise their reproductive activity with the seasons to optimise the survival of their offspring. This synchronisation involves switching on and off their gonadotrophic axis. Ever since their discovery as key regulators of gonadotrophin‐releasing hormone (GnRH) neurones, the hypothalamic RF‐amide peptides kisspeptin and RFamide‐related peptide (RFRP) have been a major focus of research on the seasonal regulation of the gonadotrophic axis. In the present study, we investigated the regulation of both neuropeptides in the Djungarian hamster, a major animal model for the study of seasonal reproduction. D...

Sodium appetite elicited by low ‐sodium diet is dependent on p44/42 mitogen‐activated protein kinase (extracellular signal‐regulated kinase 1/2) activation in the brain
Sodium appetite is regulated by several signalling molecules, among which angiotensin II (Ang II) serves as a key driver of robust salt intake by binding to Ang II type 1 receptors (AT1R) in several regions in the brain. The activation of these receptors recruits the mitogen‐activated protein kinase (MAPK) pathway, which has previously been linked to Ang II‐induced increases in sodium appetite. Thus, we addressed the involvement of MAPK signalling in the induction of sodium appetite after 4 days of low‐sodium diet consumption. An increase in extracellular signal‐regulated kinase (ERK) phosphorylation in the lamina...

Repeated exposure to two stressors in sequence demonstrates that corticosterone and paraventricular nucleus of the hypothalamus interleukin ‐1β responses habituate independently
A wide range of stress‐related pathologies such as post‐traumatic stress disorder are considered to arise from aberrant or maladaptive forms of stress adaptation. The hypothalamic‐pituitary‐adrenal (HPA) axis readily adapts to repeated stressor exposure, yet little is known about adaptation in neuroimmune responses to repeated or sequential stress challenges. In Experiment 1, rats were exposed to 10 days of restraint alone (60 minutes daily), forced swim alone (30 minutes daily) or daily sequential exposure to restraint (60 minutes) followed immediately by forced swim (30 minutes), termed sequential stress exp...
