Hypothalamic hormone deficiency enables physiological anorexia

S. M. Mohr, R. D. Pra, M. P. Platt, V. V. Feketa, M. Shanabrough, L. Varela, A. Kristant, H. Cao, D. K. Merriman, T. L. Horvath, S. N. Bagriantsev, E. O. Gracheva

This study shows that thyroid hormone deficiency causes anorexia during hibernation in ground squirrels by inhibiting hypothalamic feeding center sensitivity to hunger signals.

The PIWI/piRNA response is relaxed in a rodent that lacks mobilizing transposable elements

M. W. Vandewege, R. N. Platt, D. K. Merriman, D. A. Ray, F. G. Hoffmann

The study examines PIWI/piRNA dynamics in 13-lined ground squirrels lacking mobilizing transposable elements, finding reduced PIWI expression and minimal TE transcriptional suppression.

High Performance Virtual Screening by Targeting a High-resolution RNA Dynamic Ensemble

L. R. Ganser, J. Lee, B. Sathyamoorthy, A. D. Kansal, D. K. Merriman, H. M. Al-Hashimi

The paper evaluates ensemble-based virtual screening for RNA targets using a high-resolution TAR RNA ensemble and shows improved accuracy over single-structure docking.
