McEvoy J, Ribot R, Wingfield J, Bennett A
Sci Rep . 2017 Dec; 7(1):17557. PMID: 29242630
Understanding of avian nocturnal flight comes mainly from northern hemisphere species in seasonal temperate ecosystems where nocturnal flight is often precisely timed and entrained by annual photoperiod. Here we investigate...

Wacker D, Khalaj S, Jones L, Champion T, Davis J, Meddle S, et al.
J Neuroendocrinol . 2016 Nov; 28(12). PMID: 27805753
Dehydroepiandrosterone (DHEA) is a testosterone/oestrogen precursor and known modulator of vertebrate aggression. Male song sparrows (Melospiza melodia morphna) show high aggression during breeding and nonbreeding life-history stages when circulating DHEA...

Calisi R, Geraghty A, Avila A, Kaufer D, Bentley G, Wingfield J
Gen Comp Endocrinol . 2016 Sep; 237:140-146. PMID: 27591072
Gonadotropin inhibitory hormone (GnIH) exerts powerful inhibitory effects on various levels of the vertebrate hypothalamic-pituitary-gonadal (reproductive) axis, yet little is known of how it might change naturally over the course...

Wingfield J, Krause J, Perez J, Chmura H, Nemeth Z, Word K, et al.
Gen Comp Endocrinol . 2015 Sep; 222:44-53. PMID: 26341964
A species' range can be thought of as a manifestation of the ecological niche in space. Within a niche, evolution has resulted in traits that maximize fitness. Across millennia, natural...

Tartu S, Angelier F, Bustnes J, Moe B, Hanssen S, Herzke D, et al.
Environ Pollut . 2014 Dec; 197:173-180. PMID: 25541072
The role of polychlorinated biphenyls (PCBs) on exposure-related endocrine effects has been poorly investigated in wild birds. This is the case for stress hormones including corticosterone (CORT). Some studies have...

Tartu S, Angelier F, Wingfield J, Bustamante P, Labadie P, Budzinski H, et al.
Sci Total Environ . 2014 Dec; 505:180-8. PMID: 25461020
Seabirds often have high loads of contaminants. These contaminants have endocrine disrupting properties but their relationships with some endocrine mechanisms are still poorly investigated in free-living organisms. This is the...

Krause J, McGuigan M, Bishop V, Wingfield J, Meddle S
J Neuroendocrinol . 2014 Nov; 27(1):66-75. PMID: 25411901
The acute stress response in vertebrates is a highly adaptive suite of physiological and behavioural mechanisms that promote survival in the face of deleterious stimuli from the environment. Facultative changes...

Lopes P, Wingfield J, Bentley G
Horm Behav . 2012 Jul; 62(2):173-9. PMID: 22789464
Lipopolysaccharide (LPS) is frequently used experimentally to mimic acute infection. Through activation of the host's immune response, an LPS injection has profound effects on the adrenocortical response to stress and...

Calisi R, Diaz-Munoz S, Wingfield J, Bentley G
Genes Brain Behav . 2011 Apr; 10(5):557-64. PMID: 21466656
Discoveries of how social behavior can influence the plasticity of gonadotropin-releasing hormone (GnRH) have revolutionized the field of behavioral neuroendocrinology by providing new insights into the neural mechanisms controlling behavior....

Bentley G, Ubuka T, McGuire N, Calisi R, Perfito N, Kriegsfeld L, et al.
J Neuroendocrinol . 2009 Feb; 21(4):276-81. PMID: 19210295
Gonadotrophin-inhibitory hormone (GnIH) was discovered 8 years ago in birds. Its identification raised the possibility that gonadotrophin-releasing hormone (GnRH) is not the sole hypothalamic neuropeptide that directly influences pituitary gonadotrophin...
