PITUITARY-THYROID FUNCTION IN THE C57 BL/KSJ DB/DB DIABETIC MOUSE.
The C57 BL/KsJ db/db mouse is obese, hyperglycemic, hyperinsulinemic and serves as a model for noninsulin dependent diabetes mellitus (NIDDM). This study reports a dysfunction in the pituitary-thyroid axis and apparent peripheral resistence to thyroid hormones due to a reduction in T3 receptor …

Factors Contributing to Weight Loss Induced by Intraventricular 6-Hydroxydopamine Lesions in Diabetes (db/db) Mice.
The diabetes mouse (db/db) is a genetic mutant that displays hyperphagia, obesity, hyperglycemia, hypoactivity and hypothermia. In addition, hypothalamic norepinephrine (NE) is elevated in these mice, in comparison to lean littermates. Recent work has shown that central catecholamine depletion …
