Inhibitory function of the dorsomedial hypothalamic nucleus on the hypothalamic pituitary adrenal axis response to an emotional stressor but not immune challenge
Journal of Neuroendocrinology, 08/03/2012
Ebner K et al. – The data suggest an inhibitory role of dorsomedial hypothalamic nucleus (DMH) neurons on stress–induced hypothalamic–pituitary–adrenal (HPA) axis activation that is dependent upon the nature of the stimulus being important in response to an emotional stressor but not to immune challenge.
