Role of the hypothalamic paraventricular nucleus in anxiety disorders
The hypothalamic paraventricular nucleus (PVN) expresses multiple neuropeptides and plays an essential role in several physiological processes. Among the brain areas directly projecting to the PVN are deep brain structures closely related to instinctive ...

Dysfunctions of the paraventricular hypothalamic nucleus induce hypersomnia in mice
Hypersomnolence disorder (HD) is characterized by excessive sleep, which is a common sequela following stroke, infection, or tumorigenesis. HD is traditionally thought to be associated with lesions of wake-promoting nuclei.

Curcumin mitigates the sleep-deprivation impacts on rat hypothalamic paraventricular nucleus [PDF]
Introduction: The paraventricular nucleus of the hypothalamus (PVH) is an important efferent system that relays the circadian rhythm of sleep and stress information to the periphery.

Bilateral descending hypothalamic projections to the spinal trigeminal nucleus caudalis in rats. [PDF]
Several lines of evidence suggest that the hypothalamus is involved in trigeminal pain processing. However, the organization of descending hypothalamic projections to the spinal trigeminal nucleus caudalis (Sp5C) remains poorly understood ...
