Analysis of the melanotrope cell neuroendocrine interface in two amphibian species, Rana ridibunda and Xenopus laevis: A celebration of 35 years of collaborative research

► Overview of molecular and cellular mechanisms of neuroendocrine integration in the R. ridibunda and X. laevis melanotrope cell neuroendocrine interface. ► Detailed analysis of thyrotropin-releasing hormone actions on the melanotrope cell. ► Detailed analysis of the actions of brain-derived neurotrophic factor as an autocrine factor in the amphibian neuroendocrine interface.
