Brain region at the base of the cerebrum with numerous core areas in which neuroendocrine cells can convert nerve signals into hormonal signals for various endocrine functions, e.g. the anterior pituitary lobe, or transport them to the posterior pituitary lobe for release via nerve fibres. The hypothalamus is probably the most important control center of the vegetative nervous system. The entire vegetative system has the following tasks, among others:

Maintaining homeostasis (temperature, blood pressure, osmolarity), * Regulation of food and water intake, circadian rhythm and sleep, * Control of sexual and reproductive behavior.

It also uses release and inhibiting hormones (release and release prevention hormones) to control the

Hormone release of the adenohypophysis (anterior pituitary lobe) or * produces the hormones that are released into the blood in the neurohypophysis (posterior pituitary lobe), which is also counted as the hypothalamus.
