“…Such cold stress also transiently elevated corticotropin releasing hormone (CRH) levels, cortisol, and ACTH levels in rats (55). Acute stressors such as uncontrollable foot shock in rats also elevated brain T 3 levels in both male and female rats (54). The role of brown adipose tissue (BAT) in adaptive nonshivering thermogenesis in mammals has been well studied.…”

The influence of thyroid hormone on estrogen actions has been demonstrated both in vivo and in vitro. In transient transfection assays, the effects of liganded thyroid hormone receptors (TR) on transcriptional facilitation by estrogens bound to estrogen receptors (ER) display specificity according to the following: 1) ER isoform, 2) TR isoform, 3) the promoter through which transcriptional facilitation occurs, and 4) cell type. Some of these molecular phenomena may be related to thyroid hormone signaling of seasonal limitations upon reproduction. The various combinations of these molecular interactions provide multiple and flexible opportunities for relations between two major hormonal systems important for neuroendocrine feedbacks and reproductive behaviors.

“…It is possible that glucocorticoids control tissue levels of T3. Acute stress (footshock) increased the brain T3 content in male and female rats by 12-19% [37]. Two days of total water and food deprivation as stress increased the thymus lymphocyte T3 content in weanling and adult female rats [38], which was normalized after 48 h [39].…”

“…Most importantly, while exposure to chronic intermittent stress during the first half of gestation (G1-G11) results in low maternal weight gain no difference in weight gain was observed in continuously stressed dams or dams exposed to intermittent stress from G12 until birth (165). While brain T3 increases rapidly in response to acute stress (166,167), chronic intensive stress has an opposite effect (168) and results in decreased plasma T3 and T4 (169). Chronic stress during pregnancy in rats leads to a decrease in the level of TH by the end of pregnancy and an increase in neonatal T4 levels accompanied by lower T3 levels (170).…”

As man embarks on space exploration and contemplates space habitation, there is a critical need for basic understanding of the impact of the environmental factors of space, and in particular gravity, on human survival, health, reproduction and development. This review summarizes our present knowledge on the effect of altered gravity on the developing CNS with respect to the response of the developing CNS to altered gravity (gravireaction), the physiological changes associated with altered gravity that could contribute to this effect (gravitransduction), and the possible mechanisms involved in the detection of altered gravity (graviperception). Some of these findings transcend gravitational research and are relevant to our understanding of the impact of environmental factors on CNS development on Earth.
