The hypothalamus consists of several nuclei that integrate peripheral signals, such as adiposity and caloric intake, to regulate important pathways within the CNS controlling food intake.

For this purpose, we aimed to investigate whether CLK2 is expressed in the hypothalamic nuclei and whether hypothalamic CLK2 is part of insulin and leptin signaling and action. We also aimed to ...

"In particular, the question of whether hypothalamus nuclei contribute to the stimulating impact of light on cognition is not ...

There are projections from the ARC to other hypothalamic nuclei, as well as the cerebral cortex and reward pathways. Multiple neuropeptides have been identified that appear to modulate pathways ...

The hypothalamus is small — about the size of a pea — and it's made up of even smaller nuclei that are too tiny for brain scanning techniques, such as functional magnetic resonance imaging ...
