Effects of liraglutide in hypothalamic arcuate nucleus of obese mice [PDF]
Obesity, 2016 ObjectiveThe neuroprotective effects of liraglutide (200 μg/kg, twice daily, subcutaneous administration) in the hypothalamic arcuate nucleus (ARC) of diet‐induced obese mice were investigated.MethodsC57BL/6 mice were separated into groups: standard chow treated with vehicle or liraglutide and the respective liraglutide pair‐fed group; high‐fat diet ...

Super‐Resolution Ultrasound Based Cell Tracking With Polymeric Nanobubbles
Advanced Materials, EarlyView.This study presents a super‐resolution ultrasound platform for tracking cells in vivo. Biocompatible polymeric nanobubbles are used as highly echogenic intracellular labels. Following the injection of cells and microbubbles, ultrasound localization microscopy (ULM) can dynamically match the microvascular architecture and individual cell trajectories ...

The arcuate nucleus of the C57BL/6J mouse hindbrain is a displaced part of the inferior olive
, 2012 The arcuate nucleus is a prominent cell group in the human hindbrain, characterized by its position on the pial surface of the pyramid. It is considered to be a precerebellar nucleus and has been implicated in the pathology of several disorders of ...

Dlx1/2 and Otp coordinate the production of hypothalamic GHRH- and AgRP-neurons
Nature Communications, 2018 In the hypothalamus, the arcuate nucleus (ARC) contains AgRP-neurons that regulate energy balance as well as GHRH-neurons that regulate linear growth. Here, the authors looked at how the transcription factors Dlx1/2 and Otp link development of AgRP- and ...

Cardiovascular Regulation by the Arcuate Nucleus of the Hypothalamus [PDF]
Hypertension, 2016 The importance of the central nervous system in cardiovascular regulation is well established.1,2 The brain is able to sense changes that occur in the peripheral circulation through several mechanisms, including afferent neural reflexes and humoral signals.

Additive Manufacturing of Patient‐Specific Intracranial Aneurysm Cell Culture Models
Advanced Materials Technologies, EarlyView.Patient‐specific intracranial aneurysm models were fabricated using chocolate moulding, 3D printed water‐soluble cores, and direct resin 3D printing. Moulding PDMS around sacrificial cores made of chocolate or 3D printed water‐soluble resin yielded accurate, expandable, and endothelializable models that outperformed resin‐based approaches.

Fasting induced cytoplasmic Fto expression in some neurons of rat hypothalamus. [PDF]
PLoS ONE, 2013 Fat mass and obesity associated protein (Fto) is a nucleic acid demethylase, with a preference for thymine or uracil, according to the recent structural data. This fact suggests that methylated single-stranded RNA, rather than DNA, may be the primary Fto

Molecular Properties of Kiss1 Neurons in the Arcuate Nucleus of the Mouse [PDF]
Endocrinology, 2011 Neurons that produce kisspeptin play a critical role in reproduction. However, understanding the molecular physiology of kisspeptin neurons has been limited by the lack of an in vivo marker for those cells. Here, we report the development of a Kiss1-CreGFP knockin mouse, wherein the endogenous Kiss1 promoter directs the expression of a Cre recombinase ...
