Obesity is a major health crisis affecting over a third of the global population. This
multifactorial disease is regulated via interoceptive neural circuits in the brain, whose …

The hypothalamus is the most important integrator of functions of the autonomous,
endocrine, somatic nervous systems; it is involved in the regulation of rhythmic processes …

Abstract MicroRNA124a (miR124a) has emerged recently as a key player for multiple
neuropsychiatric disorders including depression, anxiety, alcoholism, and cocaine addiction …

MicroRNAs (miRNAs) are small non-coding RNA molecules of about 20–22 nucleotides.
After their posttranscriptional maturation, miRNAs are loaded into the ribonucleoprotein …

Introduction Dopaminergic, opiod and endocannabinoid neurotransmission are thought to
play an important role in the neurobiology of acute exercise and, in particular, in mediating …

The hypothalamus maintains whole-body homeostasis by integrating information from
circulating hormones, nutrients and signaling molecules. Distinct neuronal subpopulations …

MicroRNAs (miRNAs) play a central role in the regulation of many cellular processes
including physiological and psychological stress reaction pathways. Psychological stress is …

Our previous study demonstrated that gypenosides produced antidepressant-like effects in
mice exposed to chronic mild stress in a brain-derived neurotrophic factor-dependent …

Stress is a common feature of modern life, but both the extent of exposure to stressors and
the downstream effects of these stress exposures can vary considerably among individuals …

The hypothalamus is involved in the regulation of biological rhythms, integration of
autonomic, endocrine, and behavioral functions and may also contribute in aging …
