Cardiovascular Role of Parvocellular Neurons in the Paraventricular Nucleus of the Hypothalamus
The paraventricular nucleus of the hypothalamus contains magnocellular and parvocellular neurons. Some parvocellular neurons project to the spinal cord and are likely to directly influence the sympathetic preganglionic motoneurons.

Circadian rhythm mechanism in the suprachiasmatic nucleus and its relation to the olfactory system
Animals 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 ...

Investigating the role of arcuate nucleus and paraventricular nucleus glucokinase in glucose homeostasis [PDF]
The brain is as an important regulator of appetite and metabolism. Glucokinase (GK) is a key component of glucose sensing, and is expressed in many glucose sensitive neurones (Rosario et al., 2016, Pocai et al., 2005b).

Roles for γ‐aminobutyric acid in the development of the paraventricular nucleus of the hypothalamus [PDF]
AbstractThe development of the hypothalamic paraventricular nucleus (PVN) involves several factors that work together to establish a cell group that regulates neuroendocrine functions and behaviors. Several molecular markers were noted within the developing PVN, including estrogen receptors (ER), neuronal nitric oxide synthase (nNOS), and brain‐derived

RCI is associated with functional suppression of oxytocinergic neurons in the PVN. Reduced PVNOXT neuronal activity contributes to altered sympathetic regulation involving the IML–sympathetic chain pathway, accompanied by changes in norepinephrine signaling at the BTI.

HISTOLOGICAL, HISTOCHEMICAL AND IMMUNOHISTOCHEMICAL STUDIES ON THE PARAVENTRICULAR AND SUPRAOPTIC NUCLEI OF THE HYPOTHALAMUS IN THE ADULT NEW ZEALAND RABBITS [PDF]
The present investigation aims to give a detailed histomorphological feature of the anterior group of hypothalamus of adult New Zealand rabbits in both sexes. Specimens were prepared to be examined microscopically by using light and transmission electron

Hypothalamic POMC Neurons Gate the Fear‐Feeding Trade‐Off
Hungry animals must continually arbitrate between feeding and defensive behaviors when confronted with potential threats. We show that hypothalamic POMC neurons engage CRH‐expressing stress circuits and downstream hormonal responses to coordinate this behavioral selection between competing behaviors.
