A hypothalamus–brainstem circuit governs the prioritization of safety over essential needs - Nature Neuroscience
Animals need to adapt behavior to balance survival with fulfillment of essential needs. Krauth et al. identify neurons in the lateral hypothalamus that, when activated, prioritize survival over other ...

Honored to share that our paper is out today in Nature Neuroscience:
www.nature.com/articles/s41...
We identify a hypothalamic-brainstem circuit linking internal states to locomotion: These projections drive safety-focused movement over competing behavior.

Acute and circadian feedforward regulation of agouti-related peptide hunger neurons
Douglass et al. employ long-term, continuous fiber photometry to uncover new modes of agouti-related peptide (AgRP) neuron regulation in ad libitum, fasted, and circadian conditions. AgRP neuron activity exhibits a circadian rhythm, which controls daily feeding patterns through a neural circuit from the suprachiasmatic nucleus via the dorsomedial hypothalamus.

I am happy to share the preprint of our latest study on lateral hypothalamic projections to the midbrain locomotor region PPN.
Our findings show that these projections not only induce locomotion but also prioritize safety over other essential needs:
