Depleting Hypothalamic Somatostatinergic Neurons Recapitulates Diabetic Phenotypes in Brain, Bone Marrow, Adipose, and Retina
2021-03-31
Abstract excerpt
Hypothalamic inflammation and sympathetic nervous system hyperactivity are hallmark features of metabolic syndrome and type 2 diabetes. Hypothalamic inflammation may aggravate metabolic and immunologic pathologies due to extensive sympathetic activation of peripheral tissues. Loss of somatostatinergic (SST) neurons may contribute to enhanced hypothalamic inflammation. The present data show that leptin receptor def...
