Norepinephrine Regulation of Adrenergic Receptor Expression, 5’ AMP-Activated Protein Kinase Activity, and Glycogen Metabolism and Mass in Male Versus Female Hypothalamic Primary Astrocyte Cultures

Norepinephrine (NE) control of hypothalamic gluco-regulation involves astrocyte-derived energy fuel supply. In male rats, exogenous NE regulates astrocyte glycogen metabolic enzyme expression in vivo through 5’-AMP-activated protein kinase (AMPK)-dependent mechanisms. Current research utilized a rat...
