The skin barrier is essential to protect animals from the external environment. The proper establishment of the skin barrier during embryogenesis and its maintenance during adult homeostasis is ...

Glycine, a non-essential amino acid derived from serine, plays an increasingly recognized role in metabolic regulation.

We describe a model of energy homeostasis to better understand neuronal pathways that control energy balance and their regulation by hormonal signals such as insulin and leptin. Catabolic neuronal ...

Well-being requires the maintenance of energy stores, water, and sodium within permissive zones. The brain, as ringleader, orchestrates their homeostatic control. It senses disturbances, decides what ...
