Hierarchical neural architecture underlying thirst regulation

Hierarchical neural architecture underlying thirst regulation Nature 555, 7695 (2018). doi:10.1038/nature25488 Authors: Vineet Augustine, Sertan Kutal Gokce, Sangjun Lee, Bo Wang, Thomas J. Davidson, Frank Reimann, Fiona Gribble, Karl Deisseroth, Carlos Lois & Yuki Oka Neural circuits for appetites are regulated by both homeostatic perturbations and ingestive behaviour. However, the circuit organization that integrates these internal and external stimuli is unclear. Here we show in mice that excitatory neural populations in the lamina terminalis form a hierarchical circuit architecture to
