Given the success of the previous collection, <a href=" Biomarkers of Cardiometabolic Disease, and the new advances in the field, we are pleased to announce the launch of Volume II.

Axons from AgRP neurons, in red, innervate oxytocin neurons, in green, in the PVH. Neuronal activity of AgRP neurons is required for normal targeting of their axons to oxytocin neurons, as well as for ...
