Interorgan signaling events are emerging as key regulators of behavioral plasticity. The foregut and hindgut circuits of the C. elegans enteric nervous system (ENS) control feeding and defecation beha
As the intermediate nucleus in the brainstem receiving information from the tongue and transmitting information upstream, the rostral portion of the nucleus tractus solitarius (rNTS) is most often des
PACAP 6-38 (0.3–3 nmol) did not affect food intake by itself vs. vehicle after fourth i.c.v. administration in Experiment 2. Cumulative solid food intake in rats (n = 8) expressed as mean (g ±SE).
In animals, the brain regulates feeding behavior in response to local energy demands of peripheral tissues, which secrete orexigenic and anorexigenic hormones. Although skeletal muscle is a key periph
A complete cell type census based on their full molecular profiles at subclass level and their subnuclei distribution in the central amygdala (CeA), linked with their behavior relevance, is still lack
