However, Ptak et al reinterpreted a case, acknowledging that “Damage of the anterior hypothalamus, rather than the mammillary bodies, may [ . . .] have been responsible for [the observed] ...

Gabaergic mechanisms of anterior and ventromedial hypothalamic nuclei in the expression of freezing in response to a light-conditioned stimulus Julia Maria dos SantosI; Marcus Lira Brandão II I ...

Compared to sugar, consuming sucralose-a widely used sugar substitute-increases activity in the hypothalamus, a brain region that regulates appetite and body weight, according to a new USC study.

Little has been understood about what goes on in the brain’s ‘appetite control centre’. The first cell map of the human hypothalamus, though, is set to supercharge future weight loss drugs.

Summary The hypothalamus is a small but important part of your brain. It is responsible for making hormones that affect many body functions. If the hypothalamus is injured, it can cause a number of ...

Anterior hypothalamic volume was correlated with age at onset, but not with survival after MRI. Conclusions Hypothalamus is atrophied in ALS, even in premorbid stages, and correlates with BMI, ...

Each part has its own job. The anterior pituitary makes and releases its own hormones, while the posterior pituitary stores and releases hormones that are made in the hypothalamus.

The hypothalamus of each participant was segmented into 5 subparts – inferior-anterior, superior-anterior, inferior-tubular, superior-tubular, and posterior [Fig.2 A] – so we could consistently ...

In contrast, the inferior and anterior hypothalamus followed a seemingly opposite pattern, exhibiting decreased activity under higher levels of light. Next, the team sought to determine whether these ...

Exposure to higher levels of light can help people feel more awake and increase cognitive performance, probably by influencing the activity of parts of a brain region called the hypothalamus, ...

However, activity in the inferior and anterior hypothalamus actually decreased with more light exposure. Simply put, different parts of this tiny brain region, no bigger than an almond, responded in ...
