The generation of nitric oxide and carbon monoxide produces opposite effects on the release of immunoreactive interleukin-1beta from the rat hypothalamus in vitro: evidence for the involvement of different signaling pathways.
Both the cytokine, interleukin-1 (IL-1), and the gaseous neurotransmitters, nitric oxide (NO) and carbon monoxide (CO), have been implicated in the control of neuroendocrine functions, such as the release of CRH and luteotropic hormone-releasing hormone from the hypothalamus. Though increased levels...
