We then deciphered a neural circuit by which the SCN controls AgRP neurons to dictate daily feeding rhythms. Big thanks to our wonderful coauthors and funding sources!

Acute and circadian feedforward regulation of agouti-related peptide hunger neurons Douglass etΒ al. employ long-term, continuous fiber photometry to uncover new modes of agouti-related peptide (AgRP) neuron regulation in ad libitum, fasted, and circadian conditions. AgRP neuron activity exhibits a circadian rhythm, which controls daily feeding patterns through a neural circuit from the suprachiasmatic nucleus via the dorsomedial hypothalamus.

I’m excited to share my latest paper
@cp-cellmetabolism.bsky.social. HakanK and I recorded from AgRP neurons continuously for 1 month and found some exciting things during ad lib feeding, fasting and on circadian timescales www.cell.com/cell-metabol....
