The area of ​​the hypothalamus is a small sized large function .. Know the hormones you release

Health and Medical

The mulch is a small area located at the base of the brain near the pituitary gland. Although small, the mulch plays an important role in many important functions of regulating the body's degree and hormones that control the vital processes, "healthline".

Function of the thalamus region of the brain

Release hormones

Regulate body temperature

Maintain physiological cycles daily

Control appetite

Organize emotional responses

Main areas in the area of ​​the Muhannad

There are three main areas of the hypothalamus, groups of neurons that perform vital functions, such as hormone release.

Front area

This area is also called an area above the basin whose main nuclei include pelvic and sub-ventricular nuclei and there are many other small cores in the front region also.

The nuclei in the front region are largely involved in the secretion of various hormones and many of these hormones interact with the nearby pituitary gland to produce additional hormones.

Of the most important hormones produced in the front area:

Corticotropin secretion hormone (CRH)

Participates CRH In the body's response to both physical and emotional stress, it refers to the pituitary gland to produce a hormone called the adrenal cortex hormone (ACTH). ACTH It releases cortisol, the important stress hormone.

Threrotropin-releasing hormone (TRH)

Stimulates production TRH The pituitary gland produces a thyroid hormone (TSH) Play TSH Plays an important role in the function of many body parts such as the heart, digestive system and muscles.

Hormone release (GnRH)

Causing the production GnRH That the pituitary gland produces important reproductive hormones such as follicle stimulating hormone (FSH) And lutein hormone (LH).

Oxytocin

This hormone controls many important behaviors and emotions, such as sexual arousal, confidence, recognition and maternal behavior, and are also involved in certain functions of the reproductive system, such as birth and lactation.

Vasopressin

This hormone is called anti-diuretic (ADH) This hormone regulates the levels of water in the body when the release of alfalcopressin it refers to the kidneys to absorb water.

Somatostatin

Somatostatin acts to prevent the pituitary gland from releasing certain hormones, including growth hormones and thyroid stimulating hormones.

The frontal area of ​​the thalamus also helps to regulate the temperature of the body through sweat and also maintains the rhythms of the biological clock such as waking during the day and sleep at night is a daily rhythm linked to the presence or absence of light.

Central Region

This area is also called the tuberous region whose main nuclei are the ventricular nuclei and the arc.

The ventricular nucleus helps control appetite while the arched nucleus is involved in the release of growth hormone GHRH Which stimulates the pituitary gland to produce growth hormone, which is responsible for the growth and development of the body.

Rear area

This area is also called the mammalian region. The posterior thoracic nucleus and the mammalian nucleus are their main nuclei. The lower back nucleus helps regulate body temperature by causing the obstruction of the sweat and preventing its production
