Food intake and body weight are tightly regulated by neurons within specific brain regions, including the brainstem, where acute activation of dorsal raphe nucleus (DRN) …
Aggressive behavior is instinctively driven behavior that helps animals to survive and reproduce and is closely related to multiple behavioral and physiological processes. The …
Objective Serotonin (5HT) is a well-known anorexigenic molecule, and 5HT neurons of dorsal raphe nucleus (DRN) have been implicated in suppression of feeding; however, the …
