Hypothalamic Vitamin D Improves Glucose Homeostasis and Reduces Weight [PDF]
Despite clear associations between vitamin D deficiency and obesity and/or type 2 diabetes, a causal relationship is not established. Vitamin D receptors (VDRs) are found within multiple tissues, including the brain.

Brain energy metabolism in streptozotocin-diabetes [PDF]
Regional brain glucose use was measured in rats with streptozotocin-induced diabetes (65 mg/kg intravenously) of 1 or 4 weeks duration, by using [6-14C]glucose and quantitative autoradiography. The concentrations of several metabolites were measured in plasma and brain. Results were compared with those from normal untreated rats. Glucose concentrations

Early Life Stress and Metabolic Plasticity of Brain Cells: Impact on Neurogenesis and Angiogenesis
Early life stress (ELS) causes long-lasting changes in brain plasticity induced by the exposure to stress factors acting prenatally or in the early postnatal ontogenesis due to hyperactivation of hypothalamic-pituitary-adrenal axis and sympathetic ...

The progestin receptor interactome in the female mouse hypothalamus: Interactions with synaptic proteins are isoform specific and ligand dependent [PDF]
Progestins bind to the progestin receptor (PR) isoforms, PR-A and PR-B, in brain to influence development, female reproduction, anxiety, and stress. Hormone-activated PRs associate with multiple proteins to form functional complexes. In the present study,
