Researchers at Columbia University Irving Medical Center have identified the specific neurons in mice brains that tell them ...

In the dorsal raphe nucleus - a part of the brainstem linked to functions including eating, mood and sleep - they came across cells that produce a hormone called cholecystokinin, which helps regulate ...

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 ...

A study has found that brain chemicals such as dopamine and serotonin work together in controlling hunger and food intake, a ...

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 ...

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 ...
