The hypothalamus is a small but complex region of the brain. It has links with both the nervous system as well as the endocrine system. Although shaped and sized like an almond, there are nuclei ...

The hypothalamus activates the sympathetic nervous system, which functions like an accelerator pedal, triggering the fight-or-flight response that provides rapid energy mobilization for emergency ...

The hypothalamus is a small but critical region at the base of the brain that controls the autonomic nervous system, ...

The hypothalamus is involved during the coordination of neuroendocrine functions in vertebrates and their evolutionary origin can be described using integrated transcriptome or connectome brain ...

Research carried out on mice has revealed how a hormone released by the intestine acts on the brain and helps regulate the body's energy expenditure. FGF19 (fibroblast growth factor 19) activates ...

Researchers in the U.S. and Japan have generated the first comprehensive genetic "parts" list of a mouse hypothalamus, an enigmatic region of the brain -- roughly cherry-sized, in humans -- that ...

The Cannon-Bard theory proposes that your amygdala processes what you see and hear, translating possible danger to the hypothalamus. Your amygdala processes emotions. ... Nervous system issues.

The hypothalamus is a small but critical region at the base of the brain that controls the autonomic nervous system, regulates body temperature, signals hunger and thirst, exerts hormonal control ...
