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 ...

The arcuate nucleus of the hypothalamus (ARH), or ARC, is also known as the infundibular nucleus to distinguish it from the arcuate nucleus of the medulla oblongata in the brainstem. The arcuate ...

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

It is covered with pia mater, and lined with ependyma. It overlies the paraventricular nucleus of hypothalamus, and is involved in the secretion of vasopressin. The VOLT monitors the presence of ...

This fundamental work describes the complex interplay between light exposure, hypothalamic activity, and cognitive function. The evidence supporting the conclusion is compelling with potential ...

It is one of the most important regulators of food intake and energy homeostasis. It comprises several distinct nuclei, among which the ventromedial hypothalamic nucleus (VMH) was the first to be ...

The hypothalamus contains major regulatory circuits for bodyweight homoeostasis, the deregulation of which can lead to obesity. Although functional perturbation of hypothalamic pathways could lie at ...

When we think of oxytocin, the "love hormone," the image of a warm embrace or a deep, loving connection often comes to mind.
