The Hypothalamus

Neonatal Network, 2000
The hypothalamus is an integral part of the neuroendocrine system. The anatomy, embryologic development, and normal function of the hypothalamus are described here. Pathophysiology of congenital abnormalities and brain injury is discussed and a case study examined. In addition, nursing implications of caring for such an infant are addressed.

The hypothalamus in aging

Experimental Gerontology, 1972
Abstract The age characteristics of various parts of the hypothalamus were studied in experiments on adult and old animals. It was noted that there was a certain reduction in the activity of the neurosecretory process in the hypothalamo-hypophysiall system of old animals.

Waking with the hypothalamus

Pflügers Archiv - European Journal of Physiology, 2011
An essential component of the whole-body homoeostasis provided by the hypothalamus is the management of available energy. This includes the regulation of sleeping and waking, feeding and drinking, body temperature and activity, as well as the endocrinium.

MicroRNAs in the hypothalamus

Best Practice & Research Clinical Endocrinology & Metabolism, 2016
The brain is considered a major site for microRNA (miRNA) expression; as evidenced by several studies reporting microarray data of different brain substructures. The hypothalamus is among the brain regions that plays a crucial role in integrating signals from other brain nuclei as well as environmental, hormonal, metabolic and neuronal signals from the

The Hypothalamus

2013
The hypothalamus is a small, anatomical region of the diencephalon that is separated superiorly from the dorsal thalamus by the hypothalamic sulcus. The rostral boundary of the hypothalamus is the lamina terminalis. The lateral boundary of the hypothalamus is formed rostrally by the substantia innominata and caudally by the medial edge of the posterior

The Hormones of the Hypothalamus

Scientific American, 1972
The isolation and synthesis of thyroid stimulating hormone-releasing factor (TRF or TSH-RF) and luteinizing hormone releasing factor (LH-RF) are discussed. Hypothalamic fragments of sheep brains were the source f rom which 1 mg of TRF was first extracted characterized and synthesize d.

Hypothalamus and Oxytocin

Nature, 1958
EVIDENCE has recently been produced that, in the rat, oxytocin is synthesized in the paraventricular nucleus1. After small electrolytic lesions in this region a decrease in the amount of oxytocin was found in the posterior pituitary with no change in its vaso-pressin content.

Action of the Hypothalamus

Nature, 1961
EXPERIMENTS with an analogue model of the heart, demonstrated by me1, show that a pulse may arise, in a fluid-filled elastic system, in either of two ways : in the first, energy is cycled into the system from a mechanical source, corresponding to the physico-chemical contraction of the ventricles ; in the second, pulsation can be derived from the ...

Histamine and the hypothalamus

Neuroscience, 1983
The chemical tools that could be used to examine the function of histamine in the brain are considered together with the evidence linking histamine specifically with the hypothalamus. The distribution of histamine and the enzymes responsible for its synthesis and metabolism is consistent with there being both mast cells and histaminergic nerve ...

The Hypothalamus and Hypertension

Physiological Reviews, 2001
Most forms of hypertension are associated with a wide variety of functional changes in the hypothalamus. Alterations in the following substances are discussed: catecholamines, acetylcholine, angiotensin II, natriuretic peptides, vasopressin, nitric oxide, serotonin, GABA, ouabain, neuropeptide Y, opioids, bradykinin, thyrotropin-releasing factor ...
