Four showed expression restricted to sensory hair cells (Csmd1, Arsg, Slc16a6 and Gabrg3), one only in marginal cells of the stria vascularis (Dclk1) while the others (Ptprd, Grm8, GlyBP, Evi5, Rimbp2, Ank2, Cdh13) in multiple cochlear cell types.
CLC-K/barttin chloride channels are essential for NaCl re-absorption in Henle's loop and for potassium secretion by the stria vascularis in the inner ear.
<b>Results:</b> Claudin-11-expressing cells formed parallel tight junction lamellae that insulated the epithelial syncytium of the stria vascularis and extended to the suprastrial region.
Statistical analysis on the striae and the COCH mutations showed a significant association in families 1, 2, and 3 (P = .0006), but not in family 4 (P = .63).
In the membranous cochlea, connective tissue elements (spiral ligament, spiral limbus and modiolar connective tissue), neuronal cells, secretory cells (stria vascularis) and organ of Corti cells (sensory hair cells) were found to express COL2A1.
In rats, COQ6 was located within cell processes and the Golgi apparatus of renal glomerular podocytes and in stria vascularis cells of the inner ear, consistent with an oto-renal disease phenotype.
Corticotropin Releasing Factor in the Bed Nucleus of the Stria Terminalis in Socially Defeated and Non-stressed Mice with a History of Chronic Alcohol Intake.
A selective THIP-induced activation of CRF-expressing neurons in the oval part of the bed nucleus of stria terminalis may constitute a novel mechanism for inducing plasticity in a population of VTA DA neurons and aversive behavioral states.
Restricted and stressed rats showed up-regulation of crh1 receptor mRNA signal in the bed nucleus of the stria terminalis and CeA but not in basolateral amygdala (BLA) or in the paraventricular nucleus.
Moreover, we apply microdialysis and acute pharmacological interventions to demonstrate how the corticotropin-releasing factor system potentially interacts with the pro-maternal oxytocin system in the posterior bed nucleus of the stria terminalis to trigger certain aspects of maternal behavior.
Microinjections of alpha(h)CRH(9-41) into the central nucleus of the amygdala also reduced the severity of withdrawal whereas bed nucleus of the stria terminalis microinjections of alpha(h)CRH(9-41) were without effect.
CRF-producing cells in the central nucleus of amygdala (CeA) and oval division of the bed nucleus of stria terminalis (BNSTov) are also involved in stress adaptation and mood control.
It is this latter system that includes two primary sites (central nucleus of the amygdala and the lateral bed nucleus of the stria terminalis) in which the regulation of CRH gene expression can be disassociated from that of the paraventricular nucleus of the hypothalamus.
Corticotropin-releasing factor neurons in the oval division of the bed nucleus of the stria terminalis showed increased FosB expression, which was refractive to CVMS exposure in wild-type and Hz mice.
A comparative morphometry analysis showed that CRH-IR neurones in the NHpC were significantly larger than CRH-IR parvocellular neurones in the paraventricular nucleus of the hypothalamus (PVN) and lateral bed nucleus of the stria terminalis.
We first constructed and generated lentiviruses that overexpress (OE) CRF in a robust and stable manner, and then generated two male mouse models continuously over-expressing CRF, either at the central nucleus of the amygdala (CeA), or at the dorsolateral subdivision of the bed nucleus of the stria terminalis (BNSTdl).
Optogenetic silencing of a corticotropin-releasing factor pathway from the central amygdala to the bed nucleus of the stria terminalis disrupts sustained fear.
As an example, CRF altered correlations involving the dorsal raphe in males and the bed nucleus of the stria terminalis in females, suggesting sex differences in stress-activated circuits controlling mood and anxiety.
