Peripherally injected cholecystokinin-induced neuronal activation is modified by dietary composition in mice by Zeeni, N.

“…When comparing diet effects, while the HF diet did not induce any change in activity, reductions in MEMRI-associated signal were found in the paraventricular nucleus (PVN) and lateral hypothalamic area (LHA) when comparing the HP to the HC diet. In addition, a significant interaction was found between CCK administration and the HF diet, shown by an increased activation in the PVN, which suggests a decrease the inhibiting action of CCK. …”

In-situ grown ternary metal hydroxides@3D oriented crumpled V₂C MXene sheets for improved electrocatalytic oxygen evolution reaction by Iqbal, Anum

“…In essence, this study features a facile approach for the confined growth of multi transition metal hydroxides in the presence of morphologically unique 3D crumpled V₂C MXene architectures. Consequently, the increased OER reaction kinetics and improved stability of the synthesized composites are potentially due to synergistic interplay between well dispersed active sites and the conductive substrate.…”
