Food Restriction Alters Neuronal Morphology in the Hypothalamic Ventromedial Nucleus of Male Rats

Several lines of evidence have implicated the hypothalamic ventromedial nucleus (VMH) in the control of caloric homeostasis. For example, the activity of VMH neurons depends on energy availability. We tested the hypothesis that energy balance may involve the remodeling of the dendritic arbor of VMH...
