The Hypothalamus and Obesity

Current Drug Targets, 2005
Obesity, a condition already at epidemic proportions in the developed world, is largely attributable to an indulgent lifestyle. Biologically we feel hunger more acutely than feeling "full-up" (satiety). The discovery over a decade ago of leptin, an adiposity signal, revolutionised our understanding of hypothalamic mechanisms underpinning the central ...

Hypophysis and Hypothalamus

2012
Pathologies of hypothalamus–hypophysis axis in children express different clinical presentations, regarding endocrine secretions of numerous hormones. Knowledge of embryology, anatomy, and physiology is mandatory to understand the main features of these diseases.

The hypothalamus in parkinson disease

Annals of Neurology, 1976
AbstractThe hypothalamus was systematically examined in 30 patients with pathologically documented idiopathic parkinsonism. Using Lewy body formation as a marker for nerve cell degeneration, we observed abnormalities in every hypothalamus examined. Of the thirteen hypothalamic nuclei that could be individually identified, none were exempt from Lewy ...

Migraine and the Hypothalamus

Cephalalgia, 2009
Migraine is a complex brain disorder where several neuronal pathways and neurotransmitters are involved in the pathophysiology. To search for a specific anatomical or physiological defect in migraine may be futile, but the hypothalamus, with its widespread connections with other parts of the central nervous system and its paramount control of the ...

Neuroendocrine Heart and Hypothalamus

Journal of Cardiovascular Pharmacology, 1986
Data on the endocrine heart--neurosecretory cells of heart, producing coronary-dilatory, metabolically active glycopeptides with physico-chemical and biological properties similar to those of previously discovered cardioactive hypothalamic neurohormones--are summarized. Heart hormones participate in both local and distant regulation of heart metabolism

Neuropeptides in the hypothalamus

The hypothalamus is one of the most complex region in the central nervous system regarding neuroanatomy, neurochemical content, neuropeptide/classical neurotransmitter interactions, physiological actions, and pathophysiology. Hypothalamic neuropeptides have been involved in a large plethora of mechanisms related with obesity, anxiety, feeding, energy ...

Hypothalamus

2009
Abstract In This Chapter, we will draw several figures of the hypothalamus: first, one of its borders, then its nuclei, followed by a drawing of its relationship to the pituitary gland, and finally, its afferent and efferent fibers. Unlike the thalamus, which is not well-suited to generalizations, the hypothalamus is best learned through

THE HYPOTHALAMUS

Journal of the American Medical Association, 1940
"One gains the impression that, consistently with its primitive place in the evolution of the brain, the hypothalamus contains the mechanisms of the more primitive psychic and emotional reactions. It plays a part in conditioning moods of elation and depression, and their expression in laughter or weeping.
