Exploring the Potential of Calebin‐A in Targeting Obesity‐Related Genes and Pathways

Journal of Cellular and Molecular Medicine, Volume 30, Issue 11, June 2026.
ABSTRACT Obesity is a global health crisis affecting millions, associated with metabolic disorders such as type 2 diabetes and cardiovascular disease. Calebin‐A, a bioactive compound derived from Curcuma species, has shown promise in managing obesity and its complications.

KNDy kisspeptin is required for metabolic homeostasis in female mice in an ovarian hormone‐independent manner

Journal of Neuroendocrinology, Volume 38, Issue 6, June 2026.
Abstract Disorders of gonadotropin pulsatility contribute to reproductive dysfunction in humans and are often associated with metabolic dysfunction. Hypogonadotropic hypogonadism is characterized by chronically insufficient gonadotropin hormone production, leading to reproductive and metabolic impairments, such as infertility and obesity.

AgRP Neurons Require Carnitine Acetyltransferase to Regulate Metabolic Flexibility and Peripheral Nutrient Partitioning

Cell Reports, 2018
Summary: AgRP neurons control peripheral substrate utilization and nutrient partitioning during conditions of energy deficit and nutrient replenishment, although the molecular mechanism is unknown.

OPA1 in MC4R Neurons Regulates Dietary Fat Intake and Body Weight in Mice

The FASEB Journal, Volume 40, Issue 10, 31 May 2026.
Soybean oil intake induces OPA1 expression in hypothalamic MC4R neurons, contributing to adaptive regulation of appetite. MC4R neuron‐specific OPA1 deficiency increases soybean oil consumption and leads to obesity, with a more pronounced effect in females.

Loss of Striatal Bradykinin B2 Receptor Alters Anxiety and Motivational Behaviors in Male Mice

The FASEB Journal, Volume 40, Issue 10, 31 May 2026.
Impaired signaling of the bradykinin B2 receptor (B2R) in dorsal striatal neurons decreases anxiety‐like behavior and sucrose preference while enhancing voluntary running in mice. These results reveal a novel role for B2R in dopaminergic circuits that modulate motivation and emotional behavior.

Widespread expression of Agouti-related protein (AGRP) in the chicken: a possible involvement of AGRP in regulating peripheral melanocortin systems in the chicken

Biochimica et Biophysica Acta (BBA) - Molecular Cell Research, 2000
Agouti-related protein (AGRP) is a naturally occurring antagonist of melanocortin action. It is expressed mainly in the arcuate nucleus where it plays an important role in the hypothalamic control of feeding and energy homeostasis by antagonism of central melanocortin 4 receptors in mammals.

Hypothalamic AgRP neurons regulate the hyperphagia of lactation

Molecular Metabolism
The lactational period is associated with profound hyperphagia to accommodate the energy demands of nursing. These changes are important for the long-term metabolic health of the mother and children as altered feeding during lactation increases the risk of mothers and offspring developing metabolic disorders later in life.

Ablation of AgRP neurons impairs adaption to restricted feeding

Molecular Metabolism, 2014
While the SCN controls the circadian clock, further evidence suggests the existence of a food-entrainable oscillator (FEO) that links behavior to changes in food availability such as during restricted feeding (RF). We found that the activity of AgRP/NPY neurons changed rhythmically during RF suggesting that these neurons are a component of the FEO.
