The articles comprising this volume were first presented at the
World Congress on Neurohypophysial Hormones held in Bordeaux,
France on September 8-12, 2001. This conference brought together
more than 170 scientists from 18 countries who belong to the
different fields of interest representing research in the
hypothalamo-neurohypophysial system.
Two neurohypophysial neurohormones, oxytocin and vasopressin, exert
a variety of central and peripheral actions and thus involve
different scientific domains, which too often, even today, do not
always find the appropriate occasion to interact. This volume is
composed of chapters dealing with topics varying from basic and
clinical neurosciences and neuroendocrinology, to reproductive,
renal, cardiovascular physiology and pathology. It encompasses all
areas of current neurohypophysial research and should be of vital
interest as an integrative reference volume to specialized
investigators and as an excellent introductory text to students,
scientists and clinicians not yet closely familiar with the field.
To ensure novelty and to make sure that all topics of current
importance were covered, plenary and symposium speakers as well as
poster presentations concentrated on recent advances made in the
last few years.
