[PDF][PDF] Transcriptional basis for rhythmic control of hunger and metabolism within the AgRP neuron
The alignment of fasting and feeding with the sleep/wake cycle is coordinated by hypothalamic
neurons, though the underlying molecular programs remain incompletely understood. …

VGluT2 expression in dopamine neurons contributes to postlesional striatal reinnervation
A subset of adult ventral tegmental area dopamine (DA) neurons expresses vesicular

Evidence that the homeodomain protein Gtx is involved in the regulation of oligodendrocyte myelination
We have investigated the patterns of postnatal brain expression and DNA binding of Gtx, a
homeodomain transcription factor. Gtx mRNA accumulates in parallel with the RNAs …

A minimal human MBP Promoter‐lacZ transgene is appropriately regulated in developing brain and after optic enucleation, but not in shiverer mutant mice
Previous studies, both in vitro and in vivo, suggest that small portions of the mouse myelin
basic protein (MBP) promoter are sufficient to activate regulated expression of MBP. To …
