Preoptic Neurons that Control Entry into Hibernation
2025-12-09
Abstract excerpt
Evolution of seasonal hibernation has enabled mammals to survive harsh conditions by entering a state of prolonged hypometabolism and hypothermia with body temperatures as low as 0-4°C 1–6 . Despite decades of physiological studies, the genetic tools to study hibernation have remained limited and the mechanisms that induce hibernation entry are still unknown. Focusing on the brain, we map state-dependent neuronal...
