The hypothalamus performs a wide range of vital physiological functions, including growth and reproductive behaviors, and circadian rhythms. The authors identify and characterize hypothalamic radial glial and hypothalamic mantle zone radial glial cells as the neural progenitors in the hypothalamus.
