High Fat and Diet Induced Obesity
i-FectTM Delivers Again!Research shows that rats and humans on a high-fat diet (HFD) are less sensitive to satiety signals known to act via vagal afferent pathways. Impaired vagal afferent responsiveness to both gastric satiety hormones (CCK and leptin) and mechanical stimulation raises the possibility that changes in electrophysiological properties may be the underlying mechanism responsible for impaired vagal responsiveness to a wide variety of satiety signals.Potassium channels play a central role. To demonstrate this researchers used ouri-Fect siRNA Transfection Kit to silence TRESK and TASK1 to understand their impact...

i-Fect™ Delivers you siRNA Payload
Delivering siRNA to Dorsal Root Ganglia to Silence KV Receptors.Our i-Fect transfection kits continue to be used to optimize delivery in vivo and into hard to transfect cells like primary neurons. In these 2 latest expamples, researchers use i-Fect to deliver siRNA to KV Receptors in Rat DRGs. Knocking down these receptors enable the study of their role in pain modulation: John H.
