Objective: Neuropeptide Y (NPY) is one of the most potent orexigenic peptides. The hypothalamic paraventricular nucleus (PVN) is a major locus where NPY exerts its effects on energy homeostasis.

Abstract Objective Mutations of the DEP Domain Containing 5 gene (DEPDC5), a mechanistic Target of Rapamycin (mTOR) inhibitor involved in amino acid sensing, are associated with neurological diseases such as epilepsy and/or autism spectrum disorder (ASD). Loss of DEPDC5 impacts early neuronal development via mTOR hyperactivity.

Alterations in the expression levels of D2S and D2L resulted in obesity and metabolic syndrome such as abdominal fat accumulation and hyperglycemia in D2L KO mice fed with a high‐fat diet, compared to WT mice. This may be partly due to increased food intake.

Abstract Recent studies have shown a link between disrupted circadian rhythms and the development of chronic opioid‐induced negative effects. Both animal and human studies show a significant bidirectional relationship between the circadian system and opioid effects.

NPY mediates ATP-induced neuroproliferation in adult mouse olfactory epithelium
In the CNS, ATP is released upon injury and promotes neuroproliferation via purinergic receptors. In the olfactory epithelium, ATP promotes the synthesis and release of neurotrophic factor NPY in neonates and induces neuroproliferation in neonatal and ...

The Strongly Asynchronous Massive Access Channel
This paper considers a Strongly Asynchronous and Slotted Massive Access Channel (SAS-MAC) where $K_n:=e^{n\nu}$ different users transmit a randomly selected message among $M_n:=e^{nR}$ ones within a strong asynchronous window of length $A_n:=e^{n\alpha}$

Stress alters hypothalamic gene expression in adolescent male Golden hamsters
Abstract In Golden hamsters (Mesocricetus auratus), a two‐week exposure to chronic social stress in adolescence causes acceleration of agonistic behavior, enhanced adult aggression, impaired waiting impulsivity, and higher food intake, body fat, and long‐term increased body weight.
