Neuroestradiol regulation of ventromedial hypothalamic nucleus 5′-AMP-activated protein kinase activity and counterregulatory hormone secretion in hypoglycemic male versus female rats

Hypoglycemia activates the ultra-sensitive energy gauge 5′-AMP-activated protein kinase (AMPK) in ventromedial hypothalamic nucleus (VMN) gluco-regulatory neurons. The VMN is exemplified by high levels of expression of the enzyme aromatase, which converts testosterone to estradiol. This study examin...
