Abstract: The mammalian preoptic area (POA) has large populations of calbindin (CB), calretinin (CR) and parvalbumin (PV) neurons, but phenotypes of these cells are unknown. Therefore, the question is whether neurons expressing CB, CR, and/or PV… read more here.

DOI: 10.3390/ijms232314682
Abstract: We have recently shown that the periventricular nucleus (PeVN) of adult rats is a “mixed dopaminergic (DAergic) center” containing three thousand neurons: DAergic neurons and those expressing one of the dopamine (DA)-synthesizing enzymes. This study… read more here.

DOI: 10.7554/elife.33710
Abstract: Leptin is critical for energy balance, glucose homeostasis, and for metabolic and neuroendocrine adaptations to starvation. A prevalent model predicts that leptin’s actions are mediated through pro-opiomelanocortin (POMC) neurons that express leptin receptors (LEPRs). However,… read more here.
