For example, at the time of purchase we were unable to acquire sequence-verified IMAGE clones of Prm1, Dmc1, Msh4 and a number of important cyclins, all of which have key roles in testicular function.
Although the mechanisms through which adrenalectomy acts to reverse obesity is not entirely clear, it is plausible that the mechanisms entail enhanced hypothalamic POMC production [ 6 ] . Hypothalamic POMC mRNA is reduced in several forms of obesity [ 18 19 20 ] . Conversely, reversal of obese phenotypes by adrenalectomy is associated with a restoration of hypothalamic POMC mRNA tone in leptin-deficient ob/ob mice [ 6 ] . Furthermore, the melanocortin agonist MTII (which mimics the key anti-obesity product of POMC, alpha-MSH) reduces body weight in diet-induced obesity [ 21 ] . On the other hand, the effect of diet-induced obesity on hypothalamic POMC mRNA is somewhat complex and may depend on the genetic background [ 22 23 ] , and duration of the diet [ 24 25 ] or composition [ 23 ] of the diet.
The hypophagia of diet-induced obesity may be related to the modestly elevated hypothalamic POMC, whose product alpha-MSH is a known anorexic agent [ 20 29 ] . In turn, the induction of hypothalamic POMC by the high-fat diet might have been due in part to the elevation of leptin in diet-induced obese mice (Table I).
