The brain plays a vital role in the regulation of food intake, appetite and ultimately body weight.Neurons in the hypothalamic arcuate nucleus, the ventromedial hypothalamic nuclei(VMH)and the lateral hypothalamus are sensitive to a number of circulating signals such as leptin, grehlin, insulin and glucose.

Hypothalamic tanycytes contact the cerebral spinal fluid of the third ventricle and send processes into the parenchyma...
