HypoMap—a unified single-cell gene expression atlas of the murine hypothalamus

open access: yesNature Metabolism, 2022
The hypothalamus plays a key role in coordinating fundamental body functions. Despite recent progress in single-cell technologies, a unified catalog and molecular characterization of the heterogeneous cell types and, specifically, neuronal subtypes in ...

Single-cell analysis of the aging female mouse hypothalamus

open access: yesNature Aging, 2022
Alterations in metabolism, sleep patterns, body composition and hormone status are all key features of aging. While the hypothalamus is a well-conserved brain region that controls these homeostatic and survival-related behaviors, little is known about ...

The Hypothalamus and Obesity [PDF]

open access: yesRecent Patents on CNS Drug Discovery, 2006
Obesity has reached epidemic proportions across the developed world. Even though there have been numerous scientific advances in terms of the understanding of the regulation of energy homeostasis, few novel anti-obesity drugs have emerged. Furthermore, those that are available have limited efficacy in producing and maintaining a weight loss beyond 10%.

Genome-Wide DNA Methylation and Hydroxymethylation Changes Revealed Epigenetic Regulation of Neuromodulation and Myelination in Yak Hypothalamus

open access: yesFrontiers in Genetics, 2021
Both 5-methylcytosine (5mC) and 5-hydroxymethylcytosine (5hmC) are important epigenetic modifications in neurodevelopment. However, there is little research examining the genome-wide patterns of 5mC and 5hmC in brain regions of animals under natural high-

The hypocretins: hypothalamus-specific peptides with neuroexcitatory activity.

open access: yesProceedings of the National Academy of Sciences of the United States of America, 1998
We describe a hypothalamus-specific mRNA that encodes preprohypocretin, the putative precursor of a pair of peptides that share substantial amino acid identities with the gut hormone secretin.

Cellular and molecular properties of neural progenitors in the developing mammalian hypothalamus

open access: yesNature Communications, 2020
The neuroendocrine hypothalamus is the central regulator of vital physiological homeostasis and behavior. However, the cellular and molecular properties of hypothalamic neural progenitors remain unexplored.

Role of hypothalamus function in metabolic diseases and its potential mechanisms [PDF]

open access: yesPeerJ
The hypothalamus, a crucial neuroendocrine regulatory center, plays a significant role in the occurrence and development of metabolic diseases. Recent advances in molecular biology and imaging technology have facilitated a better understanding of the ...

A Molecular Census of Arcuate Hypothalamus and Median Eminence Cell Types

open access: yesNature Neuroscience, 2017
The hypothalamic arcuate–median eminence complex (Arc-ME) controls energy balance, fertility and growth through molecularly distinct cell types, many of which remain unknown. To catalog cell types in an unbiased way, we profiled gene expression in 20,921

Exogenous spermidine affects polyamine metabolism in the mouse hypothalamus

open access: yesOpen Life Sciences, 2021
Spermidine is important for the hypothalamic control of pituitary secretion of hormones involved in neuroendocrine functions in mammals. In this study, the effect of exogenous spermidine on the expression of genes and proteins related to polyamine ...

Huntingtin-Associated Protein 1 in Mouse Hypothalamus Stabilizes Glucocorticoid Receptor in Stress Response

open access: yesFrontiers in Cellular Neuroscience, 2020
Huntingtin-associated protein 1 (Hap1) was initially identified as a brain-enriched protein that binds to the Huntington’s disease protein, huntingtin. Unlike huntingtin that is ubiquitously expressed in the brain, Hap1 is enriched in the brain with the ...
