A study on the brains of mice has identified a neurological relay race unfolding at meal time, dividing activity into four ...

In a series of tests, scientists were able to control a mouse’s feeding, sociability, and parental behavior by manipulating certain regions of the lateral hypothalamus. This technique could ...

These project from the arcuate nucleus to other key hypothalamic nuclei, such as the paraventricular, dorsomedial, ventromedial and lateral hypothalamic nuclei. There are also projections to and ...

To survive, we need to regularly replenish our energy by eating. This process is coordinated in the hypothalamus, an important control center in the brain. The hypothalamus constantly receives ...

Sequential activation of lateral hypothalamic neuronal populations during feeding and their assembly by gamma oscillations. The Journal of Neuroscience , 2024; e0518242024 DOI: 10.1523/JNEUROSCI ...

Specific hypothalamic nuclei, including the dorsomedial nucleus (DMN), paraventricular nucleus (PVN) and ventromedial nucleus (VMN), serve as control centers for appetite. In animals, lateral ...

Every week for my film review I like to take a deep dive into something intriguing from the previous week's game. It may be a player or a play or a concept, something that worked or didn't and had ...

This manuscript provides important new insight into the mechanisms underlying seasonal physiology, using medaka fish as a functional genetic model that naturally exhibits photoperiodic responses. The ...
