Lipase and Glycerokinose Activities in the Adipose Tissue of Obese-Hyperglycæmic Mice
TL;DR: This study has shown an ability of this tissue to utilize ‘non-active’ glycerol in the esterification process possibly through a specific ‘glycero-kinase’, possibly interrelated to an impaired lipolytic activity directly related to the epinephrine-sensitivelipolytic system in adipose tissue described by Rizack.
Journal ArticleDOI

Journal ArticleDOI
Studies of pyruvate and acetate metabolism in the hereditary obesity-diabetes syndrome of mice.
K. Guggenheim,Jean Mayer +1 more
TL;DR: It has been shown that on “free choice” experiments obese animals select diets much richer in fat than the non-obese animals, and that the mature obese animals exhibit a diabetic syndrome characterized by glucosuria, non-fasting sugar levels of the order of 300 mg.
Journal ArticleDOI
Anatomical connections between medial and lateral regions of the hypothalamus concerned with food intake.
Edward A. Arees,Jean Mayer +1 more
TL;DR: No anatomical connections have yet been demonstrated from the ventromedial ("satiety") to the lateral ("feeding") areas of the hypothalamus, but fiber connections between these two areas were demonstrated.
