The supraoptic nucleus (SON) represent one of several hypothalamic areas involved in the body fluid balance and play an important role in the complex network of physiological system working to maintain the homeostasis. Since the neurons that constitute this nucleus are intrinsically osmosensitive, they have been designated as a perfect model to study the osmoreceptors. In the last years, …
The hypothalamus plays a central role in regulating vital physiological functions, including hydroelectrolytic balance, body temperature control, circadian rhythm, appetite, and blood pressure. In response to physiological imbalances, hypothalamic nuclei act as an alert system, recruiting magnocellular neurons from the Supraoptic Nucleus (SON) that excel in regulating plasma osmolality th…
For many years neurons were considered as the exclusive protagonists of the brain. In this context, glial cells were considered only as structural elements in areas not occupied by neuronal cells. In recent years, experimental evidence has suggested that these cells have other functions. Some experiments have been demonstrated that astrocytes present in the supraoptic nucleus may trigger …
A fantastic feature of neural networks is their ability to undergo rapid structural and functional changes in response to challenges to maintain their function. In the supraoptic nucleus (SON), which represents one of the nuclei recruited during hydroelectrolytic disorders, it is known that significant structural remodeling results in changes in morphology, activity, and function of the c…

Extracellular osmolality plays a crucial role in maintaining cellular volume and proper cellular function. Osmotic changes can cause significant damage, including disruptions to cell membrane integrity and intracellular transport. To keep osmolality within normal levels (295-300 mOsm/Kg.H2O), the body relies on homeostatic mechanisms where specialized sensors, known as osmoreceptors, dete…
