The Lab of @So_Steculorum mapped a sensory circuit where food odours activate medial septum glutamatergic neurons, limiting food intake before the first bite—and it's impaired in #obesity. #Neuroscience #Olfaction #SensoryPerception #ObesityResearch

Exciting news from @So_Steculorum's Lab!🤓 👃🧠 Smelling food primes your brain for satiety. Find out more in 🧵 or under 🔗 https://t.co/xEIi3eFA2v Congrats to @So_Steculorum, first author @_janice_bulk_ and all contributing authors!

Nature Metabolism - The authors describe a sensory circuit involving the medial septum (MS), where MS glutamatergic neurons integrate food odours to prime satiety and regulate nutrient intake.

Open Day was an absolute blast! Thanks for everyone involved and for all the interested people who joined us for a sciency saturday!
What an amazing Open Day! We loved chatting with so many people—and the kids were absolute stars. It was awesome to see them light up learning about organs and metabolism. Nothing better than sharing a bit of science and sparking some curiosity! #OpenDay #ScienceIsFun #Outreach

3/3 🧠The orexigenic action of POMC neurons is specific to states of caloric sufficiency or surplus. 🧠This POMC-PVT opioid circuit is both anatomically and functionally conserved in humans.

2/3 🧠POMC neurons promote sugar intake via opioid signalling in the thalamus. 🧠This circuit is strongely activated during sugar consumption 🧠 Inhibition of the circuit diminishes sugar intake.

You just can't leave the dessert even though you're full? 🍰 Blame it on your POMC neurons!🧠 (details ➡️🧵) Congratulations to Marielle Minère, @FenselauHenning and all other authors for their newest publication @ScienceMagazine ! 🎉 https://t.co/u8av0ssiEP 1/3
