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.

Oleic acid and octanoic acid sensing capacity in rainbow trout Oncorhynchus mykiss is direct in hypothalamus and Brockmann bodies. [PDF]
PLoS ONE, 2013 In a previous study, we provided evidence for the presence in hypothalamus and Brockmann bodies (BB) of rainbow trout Oncorhynchus mykiss of sensing systems responding to changes in levels of oleic acid (long-chain fatty acid, LCFA) or octanoic acid ...

The Hypothalamus and Obesity [PDF]
Recent 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%.

Frontiers 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.
Proceedings 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
Nature 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.

A Molecular Census of Arcuate Hypothalamus and Median Eminence Cell Types
Nature 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 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 ...
