This study shows that water deprivation induces a right-biased hindlimb postural asymmetry in rats, mediated by vasopressin signaling.

The paper investigates how left and right brain injuries affect the endocrine system differently, revealing a bipartite neuroendocrine system that mediates contralateral effects through distinct molecular and neural mechanisms.

The paper investigates how unilateral brain injury affects hindlimb asymmetry in rats with spinal cord transections, finding that humoral signals, not the sympathetic system, mediate these effects.

This study shows that unilateral brain injury in rats causes motor asymmetry and gene expression changes in the spinal cord, mediated by neurohormonal signaling from the injured brain.
