This page covers biological details of component Lateral Hypothalamic Nucleus. Region is part of aHuman target integrated biological model.

• Top-down path to region: Forebrain Diencephalon -> Hypothalamus (HTA.FD.HT) -> Lateral Hypothalamic Area (HTA.FD.HT.LT) -> Lateral Hypothalamic Nucleus (LAC.FD.HT.LTN) (see Mind Maps)
• Type: nucleus
• Brain area: Lower Brain - Autonomous Control Area
• Role: relay
• Function: feeding center
• Notes to function: lesions - lack of appetite
