"Where did the releasing factors come from?"

Neutrophils then trigger other parts of the immune system by releasing factors that summon other leukocytes and lymphocytes.

His work included investigations into the effect of gonadal hormones on sexual differentiation of the brain during neonatal life, and into the isolation of hypothalamic releasing factors.

Since then, hypothalamic releasing factors have been discovered for all the major pituitary hormones (thyroid stimulating hormone, luteinising hormone and adrenocorticotropin, for example) except growth hormone.

The pituitary is functionally linked to the hypothalamus by the pituitary stalk, whereby hypothalamic releasing factors are released and, in turn, stimulate the release of pituitary hormones.

Dr. Vale's principal task was to detect the releasing factors' whereabouts in the large volumes of tissue from the sheep hypothalamus, a region at the base of the mammalian brain.

The brain controls the anterior pituitary gland by releasing factors and release-inhibiting factors; these are blood-borne substances released by hypothalamic neurons into blood vessels at the base of the brain, at the median eminence.

He attended Rice University and, after hearing Dr. Guillemin lecture on the releasing factors, as the brain's hormones are known, joined Dr. Guillemin's lab at the Baylor College of Medicine, earning his Ph.D. in 1964.

Researchers at the Salk Institute in California have at last tracked down the last of the 'releasing factors' secreted by cells in the hypothalamus that have long been assumed to regulate the release of hormones from the pituitary gland (Trends in Neurosciences.

Citicoline has also been shown to elevate ACTH independently from CRH levels and to amplify the release of other HPA axis hormones such as LH, FSH, GH and TSH in response to hypothalamic releasing factors.

When you are sick, your body reacts by releasing hormones to fight infection.

So they respond by releasing hormones that stimulate the body to retain sodium and water.

It is 70 times more potent and longer acting than natural gonadotropin releasing hormone.

"It's releasing hormones that are making me fat."

Use of gonadotropin releasing hormone can be of value in the differential diagnosis.

This enzyme is highly specific for thyrotropin releasing hormone.

And these peptides appear to be releasing hormones."

The final chapter is a real case study considering luteinising hormone releasing hormone.

The rostral region aids in the production of both somatostatin and thyroid releasing hormone.

Releasing hormones are sometimes known as liberins.

Urocortin has been shown to interact with Corticotropin releasing hormone receptor 1.

Already there are clues that the impact of gonadotropin releasing hormone in milk may resonate well into adulthood.

Tertiary endocrine disease is associated with dysfunction of the hypothalamus and its releasing hormones.

The main releasing hormones secreted by the hypothalamus are:

The Hypothalamus (floor of the forebrain) produces two Releasing Hormones.

Mirena, also surgically implanted, works by releasing hormones.

Examples are gonadotropins and gonadotropin releasing hormone.

When a child or adult experiences a stressor, the body will attempt to regulate the stress through releasing hormones that pass through the body.

Sermorelin, sometimes called GRF 1-29, is a growth hormone releasing hormone analogue.

CP-154,526 is a potent and selective antagonist of the corticotropin releasing hormone receptor 1 developed by Pfizer.

It belongs to a class of agents called gonadotropin releasing hormone (GnRH) receptor inhibitors.

A releasing hormone or releasing factor is a hormone whose main purpose is to control the release of another hormone.

Gonadotropin releasing hormone analogue (GnRHa) decreases estrogen secretion from the ovary.

These include "releasing hormones" for FSH and LH, and likely, others that science hasn't yet discovered or fully described.

The onset of puberty is characterized by increased levels of hypothalamic gonadotropin releasing hormone (GnRH).
