The biological effects of the Corticotropin-releasing factor (CRF) family of neuropeptides are mediated by mobilization of [Ca 2ΓΎ ]. Aim of the current work was to examine if the calcineurin/NFAT (nuclear factor of activated T-cells) signaling pathway is involved in the effect of CRF peptides in cat

Corticotropin-releasing factor (CRF) is the major physiological regulator of the hypothalamic-pituitary-adrenal (HPA) axis. However, considerable evidence indicates that CRF may be responsible for integrating not only the endocrine, but the autonomic and behavioral responses of an organism to stress
## Abstract Corticotropin releasing factor (CRF) appears to be critical for the control of important aspects of the behavioral and physiological response to stressors and drugs of abuse. However, the extent to which the different brain CRF neuronal populations are similarly activated after stress a
