Protocol to study inter-tissue communication between the hypothalamus and white adipose tissue and lifespan using a chemogenetic approach in aged mice

Summary: Here, we present a protocol for assessing the impact of a chemogenetic manipulation in a subpopulation of the hypothalamic neurons on aging and lifespan control using a mouse model developed specifically for this purpose. We describe steps for stereotaxic viral injection and assess inter-ti...
