Neurons in the brains of mice tell them to stop eating when they’ve had enough food – and since people probably have the same ...

and their collaborators from Keio University School of Medicine have studied the main source of serotonin in the brain—the ...

Previously, we reported elevated levels of TPH protein in the dorsal raphe nucleus (DRN) of depressed suicides and now examine expression of neuronal TPH2 mRNA in a cohort of matched controls and ...

PACAP is a neuropeptide involved in stress regulation, and the authors studied neurons in a part of the brain called the parabrachial nucleus that produce PACAP and project to the dorsal raphe ...

Additionally, the team discovered that neurons that express SH2B1 create a circuit, talking to neurons downstream in an area known as the dorsal raphe nucleus, located in the brainstem.

How does activity in Brain Region X control or modulate Behavior Y? For example, she has demonstrated that the dorsal raphe nucleus, a small brain region containing serotonin, is involved in ...
