To eat or to mate—that is the question (and the answer is: moderately hungry mice choose to mate). Researchers publishing in the journal Cell Metabolism on Thursday, February 23, show that hungry mice ...
Using experimental techniques like calcium imaging in freely moving mice, optogenetics, and chemogenetics, a study in the journal Cell Metabolism this week demonstrated, faced with a decision between ...
Worldwide obesity rates have more than doubled since 1990, with nearly a billion people now falling into the category. Though a complex interplay of genes, diet, and environment contribute, 90% of ...
They found that in leptin-resistant mice, the levels of two essential amino acids are dysregulated in response to leptin. These two amino acids, methionine and leucine, are known activators of a ...
A brain circuit involving leptin allows mice to carry out vital behaviors, such as eating and sleeping, during anxious episodes. A study led by researchers at the University of Cologne and University ...
Treating mice models of insulin-dependent diabetes mellitus (a condition found primarily in type 1 diabetes) with a combination of leptin and a drug called PTP1B inhibitor, researchers found that ...
Worldwide obesity rates have more than doubled since 1990, with nearly a billion people now falling into the category. Though a complex interplay of genes, diet, and environment contribute, 90% of ...
To eat or to mate -- that is the question (and the answer is: moderately hungry mice choose to mate). Researchers show that hungry mice prioritize interacting with members of the opposite sex over ...
