Macroautophagy is an evolutionarily conserved cellular maintenance program, meant to protect the brain from premature aging and neurodegeneration. How neuronal autophagy, usually loosing efficacy with age, inte
Now, the last part of the brain I want to talk about is the Thalamus, hypothalamus, pituitary, and pineal and obviously, this is a part of that connection. We know very much, many of the things that are connected to the spiritual function of pituitary and pineal, but the thalamus and ...
What is the normone produced by the hypothalamus that is secreted by the posterior pituitary to stimulate milk ejection?Lactation:Lactation is the physiological process involving the production, secretion, and ejection of milk from the mammary glands. M...
They found that mice fed a high-fat diet produce an enzyme named MMP-2 that clips receptors for the hormone leptin from the surface of neuronal cells in the hypothalamus. This blocks leptin from binding to its receptors. This in turn keeps the neurons from signaling that your stomach is ...
Surgery is unanimously regarded as the primary strategy to cure solid tumors in the early stages but is not always used in advanced cases. However, tumor surgery must be carefully considered because the risk of metastasis could be increased by the surgic
delivered via a portal circulation from neurons in the hypothalamus. In this session, control mechanisms used by the gonadotrophs and somatomammotrophs of the anterior pituitary to regulate secretion of luteinising hormone (LH), follicle stimulating hormone (FSH), and prolactin, and mechanisms ...

These relay nuclei also communicate with the cervical spinal cord, oculomotor system, cerebellum, vestibular nuclei of the other side of the body, brainstem reticular formation, thalamus, and hypothalamus. Although the vestibular system exerts an influence on all other sensory systems,14,15 it exerts...
Insulin receptors are highly expressed in the brain, not only in the hypothalamus, olfactory bulb, hippocampus, and striatum, but also in cerebral cortex, and cerebellum.175Insulin could bind to the α-subunits of insulin receptors which locate outside of the cells, inducing the β-subunits whic...
