Regulation of NR4A by nutritional status, gender, postnatal development and hormonal deficiency
The NR4A is a subfamily of the orphan nuclear receptors (NR) superfamily constituted by three well characterized members: Nur77 (NR4A1), Nurr1 (NR4A2) and Nor 1 (NR4A3). They are implicated in numerous biological processes as DNA repair, arteriosclerosis, cell apoptosis, carcinogenesis and metabolism. Several studies have demonstrated the role of this subfamily on glucose metabolism, insulin se...
متن کاملHormonal regulation of the hypothalamic melanocortin system
Regulation of energy homeostasis is fundamental for life. In animal species and humans, the Central Nervous System (CNS) plays a critical role in such regulation by integrating peripheral signals and modulating behavior and the activity of peripheral organs. A precise interplay between CNS and peripheral signals is necessary for the regulation of food intake and energy expenditure in the mainte...
متن کاملRole of early hormonal and nutritional experiences in shaping feeding behavior and hypothalamic development.
Obesity in adults and children is increasingly becoming a major health problem worldwide. However, the precise biological mechanisms governing this disease have not been fully elucidated. Obesity involves the complex interaction of a wide range of environmental and genetic factors. Additionally, there is now a growing body of evidence suggesting that alterations in metabolic environment during ...
متن کاملEmbryonic development of the hypothalamic feeding circuitry: Transcriptional, nutritional, and hormonal influences
BACKGROUND Embryonic neurogenesis and differentiation in the hypothalamic feeding circuitry is under the control of a variety of diffused morphogens and intrinsic transcription factors, leading to the unique structural and functional characteristics of each nucleus. SCOPE OF REVIEW The transcriptional regulation of the development of feeding neuroendocrine systems during the period of embryon...
متن کاملPostnatal development of hypothalamic leptin receptors.
The hormone, leptin, plays a key role in the regulation of energy balance and neuroendocrine function, as well as modulating a range of other physiological systems from immunity to cognition. In the adult brain, leptin regulates food intake and energy expenditure primarily via the hypothalamus. In addition to these well-defined actions in adult life, there is increasing evidence for a role of l...
