TAp63 contributes to sexual dimorphism in POMC neuron functions and energy homeostasis

TAp63 contributes to sexual dimorphism in POMC neuron functions and energy homeostasis

Sexual dimorphism exists in a number of physiological processes, including energy homeostasis. Here, the authors show that pro-opiomelanocortin neurons in female mice fire more rapidly than males, and that deletion of the transcription TAp63 leads to a reduced neuronal firing rate and a male-like su...
