Abstract Background and Purpose Pharmacological inhibition of TRPC4 and/or TRPC5 channels reduces Pavlovian aversion memory in stressed mice and reduces amygdala reactivity to aversion in humans with depression. The aims of this mouse study were to improve understanding of these anxiolytic processes, determine whether there are corrective effects on ...

Oleic Acid Directly Regulates POMC Neuron Excitability in the Hypothalamus
The mammalian CNS relies on a constant supply of external glucose for its undisturbed operation. However, neurons can readily switch to using fatty acids and ketones as alternative fuels. Here, we show that oleic acid (OA) excites pro-opiomelanocortin (POMC) neurons by inhibition of ATP-activated potassium (KATP) channels.

Ribosomal S6K1 in POMC and AgRP Neurons Regulates Glucose Homeostasis but Not Feeding Behavior in Mice. [PDF]
SummaryHypothalamic ribosomal S6K1 has been suggested as a point of convergence for hormonal and nutrient signals in the regulation of feeding behavior, bodyweight, and glucose metabolism.

ABSTRACT The melanocortin‐3 receptor (MC3R) and the melanocortin‐4 receptor (MC4R), both expressed in hypothalamic nuclei, are key downstream effectors of leptin signaling and play important roles in energy homeostasis. While pathogenic variants in the MC4R gene represent the most common cause of monogenic obesity, the clinical significance of MC3R ...

Generation and characterization of POMC-tdTomato reporter human pluripotent stem cell lines
Proopiomelanocortin (POMC) is a precursor polypeptide that undergoes extensive, tissue-specific post-translational processing. It is expressed in several tissues, including pituitary gland, hypothalamus, brain stem, and skin.

Leptin is required for hypothalamic regulation of miRNAs targeting POMC 3 ′ UTR [PDF]
International audienceThe central nervous system (CNS) monitors modifications in metabolic parameters or hormone levels and elicits adaptive responses such as food intake regulation. Particularly, within the hypothalamus, leptin modulates the activity of

Time‐Restricted Feeding Alters Behavior in a Sex‐Specific Manner in Mice With Neuropathic Pain
Time‐restricted feeding (TRF) alleviates anxiety‐like behavior in male mice with neuropathic pain (NP), but not in females. Upon nerve injury, TRF altered the diurnal expression of transcripts in the hypothalamus. These findings suggest that TRF should be explored as a new therapeutic approach to alleviate the comorbid anxiety in NP.

Guidance recommendations by TOS/OMA/OAC for the use of obesity medications to treat obesity and its complications. ABSTRACT Background Obesity affects over 40% of US adults, with severe obesity on the rise. Despite recognition of obesity as a chronic disease, it remains underdiagnosed and undertreated.
