Outline of Final Research Achievements |
Preliminary research revealed that there is a site that causes voluntary movement in the hypothalamus of the rat brain. In this study we searched for substances that regulate the activity of this site. It was revealed that oxytocin, a posterior pituitary hormone, enhances and leptin, an adipocyte hormone, inhibits the activity of this brain region and locomotor activity. Exercise is very important for healthy life. But it is difficult to start exercise. When the results of this research is applied to people, it will become easy to start exercise, and it can be expected to greatly help to maintain health.
