Tests in mice using optogenetics showed that when these identified neurons were activated by the light, the mice ate much smaller meals. The intensity of the activation determined how quickly ...

Immunotherapy has been emerging as a powerful strategy for cancer management. Recently, accumulating evidence has demonstrated that bacteria-based immunotherapy including naive bacteria, bacterial ...

The study presents compelling evidence that the melanocortin system originating in the arcuate nucleus of the hypothalamus plays a crucial role in puberty onset, representing a significant advance in ...

Optogenetic manipulation of cells via light-modulated ion proteins, such as the microbial opsins (Yizhar et al., 2011a) or photoactivated cyclases (Stierl et al., 2011), combined with functional ...
