Hypothalamic regulation of reproductive function is controlled by GnRH neurons, which stimulate the release of leutinizing hormone (LH) and follicle-stimulating hormone (FSH) from the pituitary.
When levels fall, alpha cells release glucagon to stimulate the release of stored glucose.
The cooling appears to stimulate the release of chemicals known to promote healing in the brain, he said.
The trick, the study showed, is to eat foods high in carbohydrates, which stimulate the release of insulin.
The idea is to stimulate the release of neurochemicals, such as dopamine and serotonin, and hormones, such as oxytocin.
Some studies have compared it to communal grooming among primates, an activity known to stimulate the release of endorphins, which relieve stress and boost the immune system.
Those hormones can make arteries constrict and also stimulate the release of another hormone, aldosterone, which makes the kidney retain salt and excrete potassium.
Sulfonylureas, such as glipizide and glimepiride, are considered hypoglycemic agents because they stimulate the release of insulin from beta cells in the pancreas, thus reducing blood glucose levels.
Activated complement proteins serve as chemotactic factors for neutrophils, increase vascular permeability, and stimulate the release of histamine from mast cells.
Light is thought to stimulate the release of an enzyme that attacks a cement holding the lid (operculum) of the egg in place.
These experiments demonstrated for example that neurothrophins stimulate the release of dopamine via Trk and p75Lntr receptors.
