This chapter provides a general overview of the hypothalamus with an emphasis on functional neuroanatomy. This lays a foundation for discussing the hypothalamic pathways that regulate wake鈥搒leep behavior, body temperature, body fluid osmolarity, energy balance, and the cardiovascular system. In this ...

As an aid in this direction the present review summarizes and highlights the importance of the hypothalamus-pituitary-thyroid axis, pitfalls in diagnosing central hypothyroidism, diagnosing/testing central hypothyroidism in relation to panhypopituitarism, pointing at interactions of the thyroid function with...
The hypothalamus plays a key role in coordinating fundamental body functions. Despite recent progress in single-cell technologies, a unified catalog and molecular characterization of the heterogeneous cell types and, specifically, neuronal subtypes in this brain region are still lacking. Here, we present...
This dynamic transition state is supported by beta oscillations, which synchronize multiple hypothalamic behavioral codes. The hypothalamic transition state is coordinated with the VTA, the main output of the hypothalamus that is crucial for motivation and reward, and with the PFC, which promotes ...
By the end of this section, you will be able to: Explain the interrelationships of the anatomy and functions of the hypothalamus and the posterior and anterior lobes of the pituitary gland Identify the two hormones released from the posterior pituitary, their target cells, and their principal act...
