paraventricular nucleus , NPV (Abkürzung)

It should not be confused with the paraventricular nucleus.

Similar magnocellular neurons are also found in the paraventricular nucleus.

Oxytocin is also made by some neurons in the paraventricular nucleus that project to other parts of the brain and to the spinal cord.

- Note: Paraventricular nucleus is not to be confused with periventricular nucleus.

Thesis: Factors influencing neurosecretory activity of the supraoptic and paraventricular nuclei in rat.

These neurons project to the supraoptic nucleus and paraventricular nucleus to regulate the activity of vasopressin-secreting neurons.

In the rat a few cells belonging to this group are also seen in the anteroventral portion of the paraventricular nucleus of the hypothalamus.

Parvocellular neurosecretory cells are small neurons within paraventricular nucleus (PVN) of the hypothalamus.

Subsequently, T3 is transported into the thyrotropin-releasing hormone (TRH) producing neurons in the paraventricular nucleus.

The paraventricular nucleus lies adjacent to the third ventricle, from which it derives its name, "paraventricular" meaning "alongside a ventricle."

CRH is secreted by the paraventricular nucleus (PVN) of the hypothalamus in response to stress.

The regulation of urine production occurs in the hypothalamus, which produces ADH in the supraoptic and paraventricular nuclei.

Activation of the median preoptic nucleus leads to stimulation of the paraventricular nucleus (PVN).

Fibers from supraoptic nuclei are concerned with ADH secretion; paraventricular nuclei with oxytocin.

Many neurons labeled from the bladder or prostate were found in the raphe nuclei, the A5 adrenergic nucleus, the locus coeruleus and the paraventricular nucleus.

Suckling by the baby stimulates the paraventricular nuclei and supraoptic nucleus in the hypothalamus, which signals to the posterior pituitary gland to produce oxytocin.

Thus, glutamate bound to receptors is necessary for the activation of these neurons in the median preoptic nucleus and the activation of the paraventricular nucleus.

Another significant portion of the receptors is located in the hypothalamus (supra optic and paraventricular nuclei) and external granule cell layer of the prefrontal cortex.

Cirazoline has also been shown to decrease food intake in rats, purportedly through activation of α-adrenoceptors in the paraventricular nucleus in the hypothalamus of the brain.

The paraventricular nucleus of the hypothalamus, which contains neuroendocrine neurons that synthesize and secrete vasopressin and corticotropin-releasing hormone (CRH).

In rats, temazepam triggered the release of vasopressin into paraventricular nucleus of the hypothalamus and decreased the release of ACTH under stress.

The posterior pituitary consists mainly of neuronal projections (axons) of magnocellular neurosecretory cells extending from the supraoptic and paraventricular nuclei of the hypothalamus.

Most of the circulating oxytocin and vasopressin hormones are synthesized in magnocellular neurosecretory cells of the supraoptic nucleus and paraventricular nucleus of the hypothalamus.

Hypothalamic efferents in DLF arise from the paraventricular nucleus, supraoptic nucleus and periventricular nucleus, and send information to multiple areas, including:

The paraventricular nucleus (PVN, PVA, or PVH) is a neuronal nucleus in the hypothalamus.
