It turns out that bad mood is due to a special molecule, according to a study by British scientists. In their view, the CRF-1 protein may be directly related to depression. Up to this conclusion, the British have arrived after studying the pituitary gland in the brain using a super-powerful X-ray machine.
It is the pituitary that controls the sensations of stress and anxiety that can grow into depression by generating special substances, according to a study quoted by BGNES. The reaction is induced by CRF-1 secreted into the outer membranes of the pituitary cells.
The protein reacts to the stressed molecules detected by the hypothalamus - that part of the brain that produces hormones that control body temperature, hunger, mood, sexual drive, etc.
The discovery of British scientists means that CRF-1 can be controlled by medication. Simply put, not long after, the pills for happiness can really become reality.
