The Herbicide Atrazine Potentiates Angiotensin II-Induced Aldosterone Synthesis and Release From Adrenal Cells
Zimmerman A, Mackay L, Kemppainen R, Jones M, Read C, Schwartz D, et al.
Front Endocrinol (Lausanne) . 2021 Aug; 12:697505. PMID: 34335472
Atrazine is one of the most commonly used pre-emergence and early post-emergence herbicides in the world. We have shown previously that atrazine does not directly stimulate the pituitary or adrenal...

Characterization of Activation of the Hypothalamic-Pituitary-Adrenal Axis by the Herbicide Atrazine in the Female Rat
Foradori C, Healy J, Zimmerman A, Kemppainen R, Jones M, Read C, et al.
Endocrinology . 2018 Jul; 159(9):3378-3388. PMID: 30060079
Atrazine (ATR) is a commonly used pre-emergence and early postemergence herbicide. Rats gavaged with ATR and its chlorometabolites desethylatrazine (DEA) and deisopropylatrazine (DIA) respond with a rapid and dose-dependent rise...

Kisspeptin Stimulates Growth Hormone Release by Utilizing Neuropeptide Y Pathways and Is Dependent on the Presence of Ghrelin in the Ewe
Foradori C, Whitlock B, Daniel J, Zimmerman A, Jones M, Read C, et al.
Endocrinology . 2017 Oct; 158(10):3526-3539. PMID: 28977590
Although kisspeptin is the primary stimulator of gonadotropin-releasing hormone secretion and therefore the hypothalamic-pituitary-gonadal axis, recent findings suggest kisspeptin can also regulate additional neuroendocrine processes including release of growth hormone...

Distribution and regulation of gonadotropin-releasing hormone, kisspeptin, RF-amide related peptide-3, and dynorphin in the bovine hypothalamus
Tanco V, Whitlock B, Jones M, Wilborn R, Brandebourg T, Foradori C
PeerJ . 2016 Mar; 4:e1833. PMID: 27014517
Recent work has led to the hypothesis that kisspeptin/neurokinin B/dynorphin (KNDy) neurons in the arcuate nucleus (ARC) play a key role in gonadotropin-releasing hormone (GnRH) pulse generation and gonadal steroid...
