The ventromedial nucleus of the hypothalamus (VMN, also sometimes referred to as the ventromedial hypothalamus, VMH) is a nucleus of the hypothalamus. "The ventromedial hypothalamus (VMH) is a distinct morphological nucleus involved in feeding, fear, thermoregulation, and sexual activity."〔Kurrasch, D., & Cheung, C. (2007). The neonatal ventromedial hypothalamus transcriptome reveals novel markers with spatially distinct patterning" ''The Journal of Neuroscience'' 27(50), Retrieved from http://www.jneurosci.org/content/27/50/13624.full.pdf〕 This nuclear region is involved with the recognition of the feeling of fullness. ==Structure== It has four subdivisions: * anterior (VMHa) * dorsomedial (VMHdm) * ventrolateral (VMHvl) * central (VMHc). These subdivisions differ anatomically, neurochemically, and behaviorally. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Ventromedial nucleus of the hypothalamus」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
