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 hypocretins have been detected in secretory vesicles at synapses of fibres that project to areas within the posterior ... thalamic nucleus, ventromedial hypothalamic nucleus, dorsal raphe ...

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

As a result, this study aimed to explore the involvement of dopamine D2 receptor (D2R) expressing neurons located in the nucleus accumbens (NAc), a critical nucleus governing ... Based on the third ...

This important study examined neuronal activity in the dentate nucleus of the cerebellum when monkeys performed a difficult perceptual decision-making task. The authors provide convincing evidence ...

This valuable study shows that a very slow (infraslow) oscillation occurs in voltage recordings from the dentate gyrus of the adult mouse. The authors suggest that it is related to sleep stage and ...

It can also be due to altered anatomy of the pelvis and/or hips caused by joint degeneration or a condition present from birth. There are three types of tilted pelvis: anterior pelvic tilt, posterior ...

The hypothalamus in the brain contains the temperature monitoring centre for the body. The hypothalamus receives nerve impulses from structures in the skin called thermoreceptors, which give ...
