Effects of Hypothalamic Neurodegeneration on Energy Balance

Effects of Hypothalamic Neurodegeneration on Energy Balance

Normal aging in humans and rodents is accompanied by a progressive increase in adiposity. To investigate the role of hypothalamic neuronal circuits in this process, we used a Cre-lox strategy to create mice with specific and progressive degeneration of hypothalamic neurons that express agouti-relate...
