A serotonin-dependent mechanism explains the leptin regulation of bone mass, appetite, and energy expenditure.

2 Sep 2009 Leptin inhibition of bone mass accrual requires the integrity of specific hypothalamic neurons but not expression of its receptor on these neurons. The same is true for its regulation of appetite and energy expenditure. This suggests that leptin ... Read more...

Undernutrition and anorexia in the older person.

30 Aug 2009 Minimizing frailty in older age is important to individuals and society, as the increasing prevalence of chronic disease is leading to greater disability and health care costs. Nutritional frailty can be defined as the disability that occurs in old ... Read more...
