Ablation of Oxytocin Neurons Causes a Deficit in Cold Stress Response [PDF]
The paraventricular nucleus (PVN) is a critical locus of energy balance control. Three sets of neurons in the PVN are involved in regulating energy balance: oxytocin-expressing neurons (OXT-neurons), thyrotropin-releasing hormone-expressing neurons, and corticotrophin-releasing hormone-expressing neurons.

A distributed energy-balance melt model of an alpine debris-covered glacier [PDF]
Distributed energy-balance melt models have rarely been applied to glaciers with extensive supraglacial debris cover. This paper describes the development of a distributed melt model and its application to the debris-covered Miage glacier, western ...

Temperature regime of upper layer of the glacier East Grönfjordbreen (West Svalbard)
Data of thermometry performed in boreholes of the glacier East Grönfjordbreen situated in West Svalbard are presented. The measurements were made within the ice upper layer down to 20 m in spring and summer of 2012–2014.

Adipose tissue-specific ablation of PGC-1β impairs thermogenesis in brown fat
Impaired thermogenesis observed in mice with whole-body ablation of peroxisome proliferator-activated receptor-γ coactivator-1β (PGC-1β; officially known as PPARGC1B) may result from impaired brown fat (brown adipose tissue; BAT) function, but other ...

Characterization of the aerosol produced by infrared femtosecond laser ablation of polyacrylamide gels for the sensitive inductively coupled plasma mass spectrometry detection of selenoproteins [PDF]
A 2D high repetition rate femtosecondlaserablation strategy (2-mm wide lane) previously developed for the detection of selenoproteins in gel electrophoresis by inductively coupled plasma mass spectrometry was found to increase signal sensitivity by a ...

Meteorological drivers of ablation processes on a cold glacier in the semi-arid Andes of Chile [PDF]
Abstract. Meteorological and surface change measurements collected during a 2.5 yr period are used to calculate surface mass and energy balances at 5324 m a.s.l. on Guanaco Glacier, a cold-based glacier in the semi-arid Andes of Chile. Meteorological conditions are marked by extremely low vapour pressures (annual mean of 1.1 hPa), strong winds (annual ...
