TUBERAL HYPOTHALAMIC NEURONS SECRETING THE SATIETY MOLECULE NESFATIN-1 ARE CRITICALLY INVOLVED IN PARADOXICAL (REM) SLEEP HOMEOSTASIS.

Tuberal hypothalamic neurons secreting the satiety molecule Nesfatin-1 are critically involved in paradoxical (REM) sleep homeostasis.

The recently discovered Nesfatin-1 plays a role in appetite regulation as a satiety factor through hypothalamic leptin-independent mechanisms.Nesfatin-1 is co-expressed with Melanin-Concentrating Hormone WEB DESIGN SCULPTING PASTE (MCH) in neurons from the tuberal hypothalamic area (THA) which are recruited during sleep states, especially paradoxic

Effect of maturity at harvest of small-grain grasses on the nutritional composition of forage and ration formulation

ABSTRACT: We hypothesized that, relative to harvesting small-grain grasses at the soft dough stage (SFT) of maturity, harvesting small-grain grasses at the boot stage (BT) of maturity would result in less expensive dairy rations when commodity prices are high but not when commodity prices are low.Small plots of small-grain grasses were planted duri

Astaxanthin Reduces Stemness Markers in BT20 and T47D Breast Cancer Stem Cells by Inhibiting Expression of Pontin and Mutant p53

Astaxanthin (AST) is a product Oven Door Lock made from marine organisms that has been used as an anti-cancer supplement.It reduces pontin expression and induces apoptosis in SKBR3, a breast cancer cell line.Using Western blotting and qRT-PCR analyses, this study revealed that in the T47D and BT20 breast cancer cell lines, AST inhibits expression o

Analysis of Impact of a Novel Combined Casing Treatment on Flow Characteristics and Performance of a Transonic Compressor

To reduce the negative impacts of stall and surge on compressor performance, a novel combined casing treatment (CCT) structure with axial skewed slots and injection groove is proposed in this paper.The aerodynamic performance, as well as the mechanisms of loss generation, of a transonic axial compressor with NASA Rotor 67 wool are investigated nume
