Journal ArticleDOI
Targeting the T-type calcium channel Cav3.2 in GABAergic arcuate nucleus neurons to treat obesity.
Bing Feng,Jerney Harms,Patel Nirali,Hui Ye,Pei Luo,Valeria Torres Irizarry,Jacob Vidrine,Ann A. Coulter,Candida J. Rebello,Sangho Yu,Jia Fan,Hans-Rudolf Berthoud,Frank L. Greenway,Heike Münzberg,Christopher D. Morrison,Pingwen Xu,Yanlin He +16 more
TL;DR: In this article, the role of Cav3.2 expressed by hypothalamic GABAergic neurons in the regulation of food intake and body weight in mice and explored the underlying mechanisms were examined.
Journal ArticleDOI
[Some may feel hot: significance of thermogenesis for energy metabolism and the treatment of obesity].
Journal ArticleDOI
Maternal cold exposure induces distinct transcriptome changes in the placenta and fetal brown adipose tissue in mice.
Sujoy Ghosh,Chul Hong Park,Jisu Lee,Nathan Lee,Rui Zhang,Clara Huesing,Dorien Reijnders,Jennifer L Sones,Heike Münzberg,Leanne M. Redman,Ji Suk Chang +10 more
TL;DR: In this article, the authors evaluated the impact of different maternal environmental temperatures (28°C and 18°C) on the transcriptome of the placenta and fetal BAT to test if maternal cold exposure influences fetal BAT development via placental remodeling.
Journal ArticleDOI
Protein Appetite at the Interface between Nutrient Sensing and Physiological Homeostasis.
Shahjalal Khan,Redin A. Spann,Heike Münzberg,Sangho Yu,Vance L. Albaugh,Yanlin He,Hans-Rudolf Berthoud,Christopher D. Morrison +7 more
TL;DR: In this article, the authors argue that the matching of food consumption with physiological need requires at least two concurrent mechanisms: the first being the detection of internal nutritional need (a protein need state) and the second being the discrimination between foods with differing nutritional compositions.
Journal ArticleDOI
