The objective of this study was to determine whether the previously observed effects of photoperiod on body weight in Siberian hamsters were due to changes in the daily patterns of locomotor activity, energy expenditure, and/or feeding behavior. Adul... Read More about Effects of photoperiod on daily locomotor activity, energy expenditure, and feeding behavior in a seasonal mammal.

Short-days induce weight loss in siberian hamsters despite overexpression of the agouti-related peptide gene (2010)
Journal Article

Short-days induce weight loss in siberian hamsters despite overexpression of the agouti-related peptide gene.

Many vertebrates express profound annual cycles of body fattening, although it is not clear whether these represent differential activity of the central pathways known to mediate homeostatic control of food intake and energy expenditure, or whether t...
