Many parvocellular neurons in the paraventricular nucleus of the hypothalamus express high levels of corticotropin releasing factor (CRF) or vasopressin following adrenalectomy. To determine whether glucocorticoids feed back directly on these neurons, a mouse monoclonal antibody directed against the
## Abstract Corticotropinβreleasing factor (CRF) is a neuropeptide traditionally known for its hormonal role in the hypothalamic/pituitary/adrenal stress axis. However, CRF has been reported in axons in sites that may be considered outside of the direct stress axis, e.g., in axons in the lumbosacra
To clarify the controversy concerning the role of catecholaminergic systems in regulating hypothalamic corticotropin-releasing factor (CRF) secretion, we assessed the direct effects of norepinephrine and epinephrine, alone and in association with mixed a and p antagonists on hypothalamic CRF secreti
Numerous studies have shown that interleukin 1 effect of hILlP on ACTH secretion and synthesis is (ILl), a cytokine secreted by macrophages, is capable probably not due to a direct action of hILl(3 at the AP of stimulating the hypothalamo-pituitary-adrenal level, but could result from a direct or in
