Brain glycogen is remodeled during metabolic homeostasis and provides oxidizable L-
lactate equivalents. Brain glycogen phosphorylase (GP)-brain (GPbb; AMP-sensitive) and …

Glucose counter-regulatory dysfunction correlates with impaired activation of the
hypothalamic metabolic sensor adenosine 5′-monophosphate-activated protein kinase …

Estrogen receptors control hypothalamic astrocyte glycogen accumulation in vitro. Glycogen
metabolism impacts metabolic transmitter signaling in the ventromedial hypothalamic …

The ventromedial hypothalamic nucleus-ventrolateral part (VMNvl) is an estradiol-sensitive
structure that controls sex-specific behavior. Electrical reactivity of VMNvl neurons to …

Pharmacologic activation of the hindbrain dorsal vagal complex energy sensor 5′-
adenosine monophosphate-activated protein kinase (AMPK) causes site-specific …

The brain glycogen reserve is a source of oxidizable substrate fuel. Lactoprivic-sensitive
hindbrain A2 noradrenergic neurons provide crucial metabolic-sensory input to downstream …

Background The oxidizable glycolytic end-product L-lactate is a gauge of nerve cell
metabolic fuel stability that metabolic-sensory hindbrain A2 noradrenergic neurons impart to …

Hypoglycemia activates the ultra-sensitive energy gauge 5′-AMP-activated protein kinase
(AMPK) in ventromedial hypothalamic nucleus (VMN) gluco-regulatory neurons. The VMN is …

Abstract The Sand rat, Psammomys obesus, living northwest of the Algerian Sahara,
presents a seasonal reproductive cycle. The purposes of this study were firstly to determine …

Glycogen is the most critical energy reserve in the brain. There is speculation that brain
consumption of this supply may affect the identification of hypoglycemia. To assess sex …
