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

The habenula are connected to the diencephalon by a group of nerve fibers called the habenular commissure. The stria medullaris is also a group of nerve fibers that connects the septal nuclei, 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 ...

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 ...

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 ...

Here, we show that depolarization of mouse arcuate nucleus (Arc) CART neurons via DREADD technology decreases energy expenditure and physical activity, while it exerts the opposite effects in CART ...

Additional results show that the lateral hypothalamus (LHA) is a critical downstream substrate for vHP ghrelin-mediated hyperphagia and that vHP ghrelin activated neurons communicate directly with ...
