Example sentences for: agrp

How can you use “agrp” in a sentence? Here are some example sentences to help you improve your vocabulary:

As with AGRP mRNA, NPY mRNA was elevated in diabetic mice, and adrenalectomy blocked this induction of NPY mRNA in diabetic mice whether or not they were fasted (Fig.
Since adrenalectomy blocked the elevation of AGRP mRNA by fasting and insulin deficiency, elevation of corticosterone would be expected to increase hypothalamic AGRP mRNA, as was indeed observed.
As with AGRP, NPY mRNA was also elevated after fasting, and this effect of fasting on NPY mRNA was also completely blocked by adrenalectomy (Fig 2C).
In turn, as with fasting, the reduction of plasma leptin could be the cause of the elevation of hypothalamic AGRP and NPY mRNA, as well as the reduction of hypothalamic POMC mRNA.
Interestingly, at least with respect to food intake and body weight over this 48-hour period, the elevation of POMC appears to compensate for the elevation in AGRP to produce no net functional effect on body weight homeostasis in the presence of significantly elevated plasma corticosterone.
