Current Biology, 2014 SummaryThe hypothalamus is one of the oldest and smallest parts of the brain, constituting just 4 gm of the 1400 gm of adult human brain weight. And yet this tiny area contains highly conserved neural circuitry that controls basic life functions: these include energy metabolism, from feeding through digestion, metabolic control, and energy expenditure;

Conserved Genoarchitecture of the Basal Hypothalamus in Zebrafish Embryos
Frontiers in Neuroanatomy, 2020 Analyses of genoarchitecture recently stimulated substantial revisions of anatomical models for the developing hypothalamus in mammalian and other vertebrate systems.

Regional response to light illuminance across the human hypothalamus [PDF]
eLifeLight exerts multiple non-image-forming biological effects on physiology including the stimulation of alertness and cognition. However, the subcortical circuitry underlying the stimulating impact of light is not established in humans.

Molecular codes defining rostrocaudal domains in the embryonic mouse hypothalamus
Frontiers in Neuroanatomy, 2015 The prosomeric model proposes that the hypothalamus is a rostral forebrain entity, placed ventral to the telencephalon and rostral to the diencephalon.

Music Enhances Activity in the Hypothalamus, Brainstem, and Anterior Cerebellum during Script-Driven Imagery of Affective Scenes [PDF]
Neuropsychologia 133, 107073. Epub 2019 Apr 24, 2023 Music is frequently used to establish atmosphere and to enhance/alter emotion in dramas and films. During music listening, visual imagery is a common mechanism underlying emotion induction. The present functional magnetic resonance imaging (fMRI) study examined the neural substrates of the emotional processing of music and imagined scene.

Neurotrauma Reports, 2023 Blast-induced traumatic brain injury (bTBI) frequently results in sleep and circadian rhythm disturbances. We have investigated whether dysregulation of circadian rhythm after bTBI is mediated by dysregulation of clock genes in the hypothalamus and ...

BMC Neuroscience, 2022 Background Exercise boosts the health of some brain parts, such as the hippocampus and hypothalamus. Several studies show that long-term exercise improves spatial learning and memory, enhances hypothalamic leptin sensitivity, and regulates energy balance.
