The growth hormone (GH) is a pituitary hormone classically responsible for promoting somatic growth and its secretion is regulated by different factors, including nutritional and metabolic signals. GH exerts its effects through its membrane receptor, GHR, culminating in the phosphorylation of STAT5 that acts as a transcription factor regulating the expression of target genes. Studies sugg…
Obesity is a disease of worldwide increasing prevalence. Therefore, the study of molecular mecanisms that induce obesity is crucial. The hypothalamus and its nuclei coordinate the balance between food intake and energy expenditure through metabolic, neural and hormonal signs. Insulin and leptin act in hypothalamus and assist in control of energy balance. Cdc2-like protein (Clk2) is regula…
The capacity to adjust food intake in response to changing energy requirements is essential for survival and the hypothalamus plays an important role in the regulation of whole-body energy balance by integrating nutrient and hormone signals from peripheral inputs. Insulin and leptin are hormones that though their intracellular signaling control food intake and energy expenditure stimulati…
