Thalamic opioids from POMC satiety neurons switch on sugar appetite
ScienceHigh sugar–containing foods are readily consumed, even after meals and beyond fullness sensation (e.g., as desserts). Although reward-driven processing of palatable foods can promote overeating, the neurobiological mechanisms that underlie the selective appetite for sugar in states of satiety remain unclear.

Hypothalamic proopiomelanocortin (POMC) neurons have a cholinergic phenotype
European Journal of Neuroscience, 2006AbstractNeuronal networks originating in the hypothalamic arcuate nucleus play fundamental roles in the control of energy balance. Neuropeptide Y (NPY)‐producing neurons in the arcuate nucleus stimulate food intake, whereas arcuate nucleus neurons that release the proopiomelanocortin (POMC)‐derived peptide α‐melanocyte‐stimulating hormone (α‐MSH ...

PDK-1/FoxO1 pathway in POMC neurons regulatesPomcexpression and food intake
American Journal of Physiology-Endocrinology and Metabolism, 2010Both insulin and leptin signaling converge on phosphatidylinositol 3-OH kinase [PI( 3 )K]/3-phosphoinositide-dependent protein kinase-1 (PDK-1)/protein kinase B (PKB, also known as Akt) in proopiomelanocortin (POMC) neurons. Forkhead box-containing protein-O1 (FoxO1) is inactivated in a PI( 3 )K-dependent manner.

Mitochondrial regulation of obesity by POMC neurons
Biochimica et Biophysica Acta (BBA) - Molecular Basis of DiseasePro-opiomelanocortin (POMC) neurons, nestled in the hypothalamus, play a pivotal role in the intricate coordination of energy homeostasis and metabolic pathways. These neurons' mitochondria, often hailed as the cell's powerhouses, are crucial for maintaining cellular energy equilibrium and metabolic functionality.

Estrogen Promotes Parvalbumin Expression in Arcuate Nucleus POMC Neurons
Reproductive Sciences, 2010We have found that estrogen promotes suppression of feeding and a lean body mass while activating the arcuate nucleus proopiomelanocortin (POMC)-expressing neurons. These neurons, when activated, suppress appetite and increase energy expenditure. Because the increased activation of POMC neurons by estradiol was associated with increased glutamate ...

POMC neurons modulate infant vocalizations through opioid signaling
2022AbstractInfants cry when separated from their mothers. Here, we show that POMC neurons in the arcuate nucleus of the hypothalamus—via ß-endorphin production and signaling—modulate the crying behavior of mouse pups. The effect of POMC neurons on vocal behavior depends on the expression of µ-opioid receptors, the main receptor for ß-endorphin. Thus, POMC

POMC Neurons: Feeding, Energy Metabolism, and Beyond
2018The central melanocortin system is a well-established neuronal pathway involved in regulating energy metabolism. Pro-opiomelanocortin (POMC) neurons, agouti gene-related protein (AgRP) neurons, and their downstream cells expressing the melanocortin-3 (MC3R) and melanocortin-4 receptors (MC4R) are three key components of the central melanocortin pathway.
