Neuroendocrinology : NIDDK

Neuroendocrinology

The Neuroendocrinology program supports research on the following:

Physiological response to stress through the hypothalamic-pituitary-adrenal axis
Neuropeptides and neuropeptide receptor signaling pathways
Gene regulation in the hypothalamus and pituitary gland
Diseases of the pituitary, including neoplasia
Hypopituitary dwarfism
Identification and characterization of novel hypothalamic or pituitary hormones
Pituitary hormone receptors and actions on target tissues (e.g., GH IGF axis)
Neuropeptide receptors in diagnosis and treatment of disease
Neuroendocrine-immune interactions"
