Summary

Stress-induced stimulation of corticotropic function involves the activation of hypothalamic corticotropin-releasing hormone (CRH) and arginine vasopressin (AVP), which can be measured by improved methods of neuroendocrine investigation. The antiserotoninergic tricyclic antidepressant, tianeptine, reduces the corticotropic response to stress, as shown by a reduction in hypothalamo-hypophyseal portal CRH and AVP levels.
