This project investigates specific neuronal populations in the hypothalamus that regulate energy balance. By focusing on AgRP neurons expressing the UDP-receptor P2Y6, the research aims to understand their role in food intake and glucose homeostasis, potentially leading to new obesity treatments.
This MSCA Reintegration proposal is aimed to study the heterogeneity of neuronal populations implicated in the maintenance of energy balance.
Because of their location, neurons in the arcuate nucleus of the hypothalamus (ARC) integrate nutrient and hormonal signals carried in the blood.
Then, they regulate downstream neuron’s activity in order to adapt food intake and energy expenditure.
Deregulation of energy homeostasis can lead to obesity and diabetes, two of the major chronic diseases in the…
