Abstract
Hypothalamus takes part in blood cholesterol control. Electrical stimulation of hypothalamus provokes changes in the blood cholesterol level. The character of these changes depends on localization of the stimulation. Electrical stimulation of the anterior part of the hypothalamus causes a fall, and of the posterior part—a rise in the blood cholesterol level. The change of blood cholesterol caused by electrical stimulation of the mid portion, of the hypothalamus depends on the initial blood cholesterol level. Stimulation of the mid portion of the hypothalamus raises an initially low, and lowers an initially high, cholesterol level.
