Temporal Control of Appetite by AgRP Clocks [PDF]

open access: yesCell Metabolism, 2019
Neuronal control of diurnal appetitive drive is not well understood. In this issue, a study by Cedernaes et al. (2019) elucidates a key role of AgRP neuronal clocks and delineates the cell-type-specific transcriptional landscape in the temporal regulation of hunger.

PDK1-Foxo1 in agouti-related peptide neurons regulates energy homeostasis by modulating food intake and energy expenditure. [PDF]

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2011
Insulin and leptin intracellular signaling pathways converge and act synergistically on the hypothalamic phosphatidylinositol-3-OH kinase/3-phosphoinositide-dependent protein kinase 1 (PDK1).

Arcuate hypothalamic AgRP and putative POMC neurons show opposite changes in spiking across multiple timescales

open access: yeseLife, 2015
Agouti-related-peptide (AgRP) neurons—interoceptive neurons in the arcuate nucleus of the hypothalamus (ARC)—are both necessary and sufficient for driving feeding behavior. To better understand the functional roles of AgRP neurons, we performed optetrode

AgRP-deficiency could lead to increased lifespan [PDF]

open access: yesBiochemical and Biophysical Research Communications, 2006
The Agouti-related protein (AgRP) is a central orexigenic peptide leading to increased food intake when ubiquitously overexpressed. AgRP-deficient (AgRP(-/-)) mice have either no phenotype or present an age-related leanness. In this study, AgRP(-/-) mice were fed alternate high fat or low fat diets in an effort to determine whether AgRP is a mediating ...

Hypoxia inducible factor-dependent upregulation of Agrp in glomus type I cells of the carotid body

open access: yesMolecular Metabolism
Agouti-related peptide (AgRP) is a well-established potent orexigenic peptide primarily expressed in hypothalamic neurons. Nevertheless, the expression and functional significance of extrahypothalamic AgRP remain poorly understood.

Food intake regulation during pregnancy and lactation in mice with reduced activity of the melanocortin system

open access: yesВавиловский журнал генетики и селекции, 2016
Hypothalamic melanortin receptor (MCR) activation inhibits appetite. Neuropeptide Y (NPY) and Agouti Related Protein (AgRP) are coexpressed in some hypothalamic neurons and stimulate feeding, NPY via inhibition of MCR-expressing neurons, and AgRP via ...

Regulation of substrate utilization and adiposity by Agrp neurons [PDF]

open access: yesNature Communications, 2019
Abstract The type of nutrient utilized by the organism at any given time—substrate utilization—is a critical component of energy metabolism. The neuronal mechanisms involved in the regulation of substrate utilization in mammals are largely unknown.

Effects of Thymoquinone on Hypothalamic NPY and AgRP Gene Expression in Intact and Hypothyroidism- Model Rats [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of Advanced Biomedical Sciences, 2022
Background & Objective: Thymoquinone is the most important compound of Nigella sativa, which stimulates the activity of thyroid axis in healthy individuals and people with hypothyroidism.

The liver‐brain axis: A multidimensional regulatory network implicated in Alzheimer's disease pathogenesis and clinical implications

open access: yesAnimal Models and Experimental Medicine, EarlyView.
Schematic diagram of the core pathways of the liver‐brain axis in regulating AD. The liver regulates cerebral Aβ deposition, tau phosphorylation, and neuroinflammation through pathways such as metabolic detoxification (urea cycle, ketone body metabolism, glutathione antioxidant system), molecular secretion (APOE, CRP, FGF21, IGF‐1), and Aβ clearance ...

Palmitate-induced autophagy liberates monounsaturated fatty acids and increases Agrp expression in hypothalamic cells

open access: yesAnimal Cells and Systems, 2019
Fatty acids regulate food intake, although the exact mechanism remains unknown. Emerging evidence suggests that intracellular free fatty acids generated by starvation-induced autophagy regulate food intake. Starvation for 6 h elevated fatty acids such as
