Ontogenesis of corticotropes and lactotropes in situ in the pituitary gland of the hamster
(Springer-Verlag, 1986-09)
The development of corticotropes and lactotropes was investigated in the golden Syrian hamster using an anti-porcine ACTH antiserum and a homologous antihamster PRL antiserum. Oval corticotropes were first visible in the ...
Absence of weight regulation in exercising hamsters
(Elsevier, 1974-04)
Spontaneous activity on horizontal discs causes a permanent upward displacement of hamster weight, length, and, under some circumstances, percentage body fat. This phenomenon manifests itself through an immediate increase ...
role of limbic system in the control of hamster growth
(Elsevier, 1979)
Rostral septal lesions accelerate somatic growth in adult hamsters. This study tested the hypothesis that this effect results from damage to fibers of passage by observing the effects of transections of septohippocampal ...
Basis for the hypoactivity that accompanies rapid weight gain in hamsters
(Elsevier, 1983-03)
The pattern of hypoactivity that accompanies rapid weight gain following septal lesions in hamsters was characterized. Lesioned hamsters displayed reduced levels of running, shorter and slower running bouts, and longer ...
Reduced short-term thermic effects of a meal in obese adolescent girls
(Springer-Verlag, 1992-11)
Post-meal energy expenditure (TEM) was compared for 14 healthy obese (body fat = 45.3%, body mass index, BMI = 35.9 kg m −2 ) and 9 healthy nonobese (body fat = 20.7010, BMI = 17.8 kg M −2 ) adolescent girls. The test meal ...
A role for somatostatin in the control of hamster growth
(Elsevier, 1983-12)
Concentrations of somatostatin-like immunoreactivity (SRIF-LI) were measured in cerebral cortex, hippocampus, septum-POA, median eminence, gastric antrum, fundus and pancreas in adult female hamsters to determine whether ...
Validity of the relative percent concept for equating training intensity
(Springer-Verlag, 1978-12)
The validity of the relative percent concept for equating training intensity was investigated using the point of metabolic acidosis (anaerobic threshold) as the criterion variable. Percent oxygen uptake, heart rate and ...
Neural correlates of encoding and expression in implicit sequence learning
(Springer-Verlag, 2005-08)
In the domain of motor learning it has been difficult to separate the neural substrate of encoding from that of change in performance. Consequently, it has not been clear whether motor effector areas participate in learning ...
Basis for the exercise-induced hyperphagia in adult hamsters
(Elsevier, 1978-05)
In adult female golden hamsters (Mesocricetus auratus, Waterhouse) voluntary exercise is associated with increased food intake and accelerated somatic growth. We examined the possible interdependence between increased food ...
Rostromedial septal area controls pulsatile growth hormone release in the golden hamster
(Elsevier, 1987-04)
Limbic forebrain inhibits growth and growth hormone (GH) secretion in mature golden hamsters as shown by acceleration of growth and increases in serum GH concentrations following the electrolytic lesions of septum, transection ...
