I am excited to share our latest paper @Nature where we construct a hi-res spatial map of the human hypothalamus, the brain region central in appetite control. It is a collaboration between @IMS_MRL @Cambridge_Uni & @MPI_Metabolism https://t.co/04ZLrCDJ2N

Our latest on understanding GIP agonism v antagonism. Shout out to @TimoMueller_IDO since lots of this work replicated work from his group. We tried to take it a little farther. Genetic loss of GIP signaling in CNS increases weight loss to GLP-1 agonists. ๐Ÿ’ช

Drugs like Ozempic are great for weight loss, but they make some people feel sick. We discovered that the brain circuits mediating the appetite suppression are distinct from those that mediate nausea โ€“ a finding that may be leveraged to develop more selective GLP1-based drugs.

Often people will say, X food or activity increases GLP1, but in this Huberman Lab episode out now @zaknight explains why enormous increases in GLP1 are necessary for weight loss; increases that pharmacology alone can produce. Itโ€™s also a master class in the control of hunger.

Targeting gut endocrine cells is a logical yet challenging therapeutic target with small molecule GLP1RAs looming. Here the team @CamMetaboNet uses chemogentics to link K cells to reduction of food intake @MolMetab https://t.co/6kJDIVoniT #weightloss
