Objective: The sensory detection of food and food cues suppresses Agouti related peptide (AgRP) neuronal activity prior to consumption with greatest suppression occurring in response to highly caloric food or interoceptive energy need.

AgRP Neurons Regulate Bone Mass [PDF]
The hypothalamus has been implicated in skeletal metabolism. Whether hunger-promoting neurons of the arcuate nucleus impact the bone is not known. We generated multiple lines of mice to affect AgRP neuronal circuit integrity. We found that mice with Ucp2

Drp1 is required for AgRP neuronal activity and feeding
The hypothalamic orexigenic Agouti-related peptide (AgRP)-expressing neurons are crucial for the regulation of whole-body energy homeostasis. Here, we show that fasting-induced AgRP neuronal activation is associated with dynamin-related peptide 1 (DRP1 ...

Sustained NPY signaling enables AgRP neurons to drive feeding
Artificial stimulation of Agouti-Related Peptide (AgRP) neurons promotes intense food consumption, yet paradoxically during natural behavior these cells are inhibited before feeding begins.

Mammalian comparative sequence analysis of the Agrp locus. [PDF]
Agouti-related protein encodes a neuropeptide that stimulates food intake. Agrp expression in the brain is restricted to neurons in the arcuate nucleus of the hypothalamus and is elevated by states of negative energy balance.

Hypothalamic Agrp Neurons Drive Stereotypic Behaviors beyond Feeding [PDF]
The nervous system evolved to coordinate flexible goal-directed behaviors by integrating interoceptive and sensory information. Hypothalamic Agrp neurons are known to be crucial for feeding behavior. Here, however, we show that these neurons also orchestrate other complex behaviors in adult mice.

AgRP neuronal activity across feeding‐related behaviours [PDF]
Abstract AgRP neurons trigger one of the most potent orexigenic responses and are both necessary and sufficient for feeding. Recent technical advances for monitoring in vivo neuronal activity have revisited a previously well‐established model of AgRP neurons' feeding regulatory effects.

A central role for C1q/TNF-related protein 13 (CTRP13) in modulating food intake and body weight. [PDF]
C1q/TNF-related protein 13 (CTRP13), a hormone secreted by adipose tissue (adipokines), helps regulate glucose metabolism in peripheral tissues. We previously reported that CTRP13 expression is increased in obese and hyperphagic leptin-deficient mice ...
