This paper introduces a bifunctional optical reporter, neuro-seeER, to track estrogen response dynamics in neurons in vivo and demonstrates its utility in capturing both exogenous and endogenous estrogen responses.

The paper investigates how mice collectively coordinate behavior during cold exposure, showing distinct neural encoding in the dmPFC for active and passive huddle decisions.

This study tests if brain-targeted estrogen via DHED prodrug improves metabolic health in obese, ovariectomized mice, but finds no such benefit.

This study shows estrogen signaling in Reprimo lineage cells affects thermoregulation in female mice by altering brown adipose tissue thermogenesis, but not in males.

This study identifies TNSST neurons in mice that modulate feeding behavior based on metabolic and reproductive states, with effects dependent on body mass and estrogen levels.

This study identifies hypothalamic estrogen receptor alpha as a mediator of tamoxifen-induced side effects in mice through single-cell RNA sequencing and genetic knockout experiments.

The paper identifies six distinct neuron clusters in the VMH using single-cell RNA sequencing and shows sex-specific differences in gene expression and function related to energy expenditure.
