Outline of Final Research Achievements

Fostering ties between parents and children, and nurturing loving and committed relationships are fundamental to healthy dietary habit over a lifetime. Focusing on the hypothalamus and other brain regions involved in maternal, attachment, and anxiety-like behaviors, the effects of fat-soluble nutrients on neurogenesis and functional development of the neural circuits were investigated in mice.
Using single living cell imaging analysis of GFP-tagged estrogen receptor beta, natural fat-soluble vitamin E tocotrienols were evaluated to act as ligand for the receptor. The effects of tocotrienols on neuronal differentiation are under investigation in either postnatal cerebellar or embryonic hypothalamic slice culture system.
