Abstract
The hypothalamic signaling pathways that regulate food intake have been studied in detail. The arcuate nucleus of the hypothalamus contains neuropeptide Y (NPY)/agouti-related protein (AGRP) and pro-opiomelanocortin (POMC)/cocaine- and amphetamine-regulated transcript (CART) neurons, and the activation of NPY/AGRP or POMC/CART neurons stimulates or inhibits feeding behavior, respectively.
