Effect of NDP-a-MSH on PPAR-c and –b Expression and Anti-Inflammatory Cytokine Release in Rat Astrocytes and Microglia [PDF]
Brain inflammation plays a central role in numerous brain pathologies. Microglia and astrocytes are the main effector cells that become activated when an inflammatory process takes place within the central nervous system. a-melanocytestimulating hormone (

The role of insulin receptor substrate 2 in hypothalamic and beta cell function [PDF]
Insulin receptor substrate 2 (Irs2) plays complex roles in energy homeostasis. We generated mice lacking Irs2 in beta cells and a population of hypothalamic neurons (RIPCreIrs2KO), in all neurons (NesCreIrs2KO), and in proopiomelanocortin neurons ...

Cutaneous Malignant Melanoma Incidences Analyzed Worldwide by Skin Type over Advancing Age of Males and Females: Evidence Estrogen and Androgenic Hair are Risk Factors [PDF]
We previously analyzed cutaneous malignant melanoma (CMM) incidences worldwide by sex, age, and Fitzpatrick skin type over time (1955-2007) and found only European-ancestry populations have exponential increasing incidences and about a 2-log increase in ...
