A model of murine toxoplasmosis was used to study cellular and temporal expression of uncoupling protein-2 (Ucp2) in the brain. In situ hybridization indicated that Ucp2 was located in neurons. Nuclei structures involved in energy balance, in particular the nucleus of the solitary tract (NST), was shown to have a positive association between negative energy balance and...
