Post-oral sensing of fat increases food intake and attenuates body weight defense
Summary: In mammals, changes in weight elicit responses that favor a return to one’s previous weight and promote weight stability. It has been hypothesized that palatable sweet and high-fat foods disturb the defense of body weight, leading to weight gain.

Genetic and pharmacologic inhibition of ALDH1A3 as a treatment of β-cell failure
β-cell dedifferentiation is a key feature of type 2 diabetes. Here, the authors show evidence of re-differentiation of de-differentiated β-cells and identify ALDH1A3 as a key player in this process, proposing inhibition of ALDH1A3 as a treatment method ...

Reversing pancreatic β-cell dedifferentiation in the treatment of type 2 diabetes
The maintenance of glucose homeostasis is fundamental for survival and health. Diabetes develops when glucose homeostasis fails. Type 2 diabetes (T2D) is characterized by insulin resistance and pancreatic β-cell failure.

Assessing the effects of stress on feeding behaviors in laboratory mice
Stress often affects eating behaviors, increasing caloric intake in some individuals and decreasing it in others. The determinants of feeding responses to stress are unknown, in part because this issue is rarely studied in rodents. We focused our efforts

The polarizable and reprogrammable identity of Kupffer cells in Nonalcoholic Steatohepatitis
Kupffer cells (KCs) are the resident macrophages of the liver with similar origins to myeloid-derived macrophages. Once differentiated, KCs exhibit distinct cellular machinery capable of longevity and self-renewal, making them a crucial player in ...

Adaptive optics at the WHT [PDF]
The WHT is unusually well-placed for exploitation of adaptive-optics (AO) technology. The site seeing is excellent (median 0.7 arcsec), dome seeing is negligible, and preliminary studies indicate that most of the atmospheric seeing originates in a well ...

Aldehyde dehydrogenase 1a3 defines a subset of failing pancreatic β cells in diabetic mice
Diabetes is associated with the de-differentiation of β-cells into a more progenitor-like cell type. Here, the authors identify Aldh3 as a marker of de-differentiating β-cell in animal models of diabetes, and show Aldh3+cells have impaired insulin ...
