Frontiers in Neuroscience, 2014 Context: That serotonin plays a role in the regulation of feeding behavior and energy metabolism has been known for a long time. Serotonin transporters (SERT) play a crucial role in serotonin signalling by regulating its availability in the synaptic ...

Nerve Centers Affecting the Function of the Cardiovascular System
Majallah-i Dānishgāh-i ̒Ulūm-i Pizishkī-i Bābul, 2021 BACKGROUND AND OBJECTIVE: The activity of the cardiovascular system is carried out by the Autonomic Nervous System (ANS). ANS itself is controlled by multiple nerve centers.

Paraventricular hypothalamic nucleus: Axonal projections to the brainstem [PDF]
Journal of Comparative Neurology, 2010 Abstract The paraventricular hypothalamic nucleus (PVH) contains many neurons that innervate the brainstem, but information regarding their target sites remains incomplete. Here we labeled neurons in the rat PVH with an anterograde axonal tracer, Phaseolus vulgaris ...

Circadian rhythm mechanism in the suprachiasmatic nucleus and its relation to the olfactory system
Frontiers in Neural CircuitsAnimals need sleep, and the suprachiasmatic nucleus, the center of the circadian rhythm, plays an important role in determining the timing of sleep. The main input to the suprachiasmatic nucleus is the retinohypothalamic tract, with additional inputs ...

Transcriptional regulation of corticotropin-releasing hormone gene in stress response
IBRO Reports, 2018 As a central player of the hypothalamic-pituitary-adrenal (HPA) axis, the corticotropin -releasing hormone (CRH) neurons in the hypothalamic paraventricular nucleus (PVN) determine the state of HPA axis and play a key role in stress response.

Nature Communications, 2020 The TrkB receptor is known to regulate obesity via appetite control, but the underlying neural circuits are not known. Here, the authors show that selective modulation of TrkB+ neurons in the paraventricular hypothalamus regulates food intake via ...

Bilateral descending hypothalamic projections to the spinal trigeminal nucleus caudalis in rats. [PDF]
PLoS ONE, 2013 Several lines of evidence suggest that the hypothalamus is involved in trigeminal pain processing. However, the organization of descending hypothalamic projections to the spinal trigeminal nucleus caudalis (Sp5C) remains poorly understood ...

Role of the hypothalamic paraventricular nucleus in anxiety disorders
Stress and Brain, 2022 The hypothalamic paraventricular nucleus (PVN) expresses multiple neuropeptides and plays an essential role in several physiological processes. Among the brain areas directly projecting to the PVN are deep brain structures closely related to instinctive ...

Modulation of cardiorespiratory function mediated by the paraventricular nucleus [PDF]
Respiratory Physiology & Neurobiology, 2010 The hypothalamic paraventricular nucleus (PVN) coordinates autonomic and neuroendocrine systems to maintain homeostasis and to respond to stress. Neuroanatomic and neurophysiologic experiments have provided insight into the mechanisms by which the PVN acts.

Advanced Science, EarlyView.An activity‐dependent pathway links prefrontal circuit hypoactivity to cognitive impairment. Reduced PVA–mPFC activity upregulates NEPAS, which suppresses PTX3 secretion, leading to impaired angiogenesis, myelin deficits, and memory decline. Rescue is achieved by NEPAS knockdown or chemogenetic circuit activation.
