Hypothalamic miRNAs: emerging roles in energy balance control
The hypothalamus is a crucial central nervous system area controlling appetite, body weight and metabolism. It consists in multiple neuronal types that sense, integrate and generate appropriate responses to hormonal and nutritional signals partly by fine-tuning the expression of specific batteries of genes. However, the mechanisms regulating these neuronal gene programmes in physiology and path...

متن کاملHypothalamic tanycytes: potential roles in the control of feeding and energy balance
Tanycytes, glial-like cells that line the third ventricle, are emerging as components of the hypothalamic networks that control body weight and energy balance. They contact the cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) and send processes that come into close contact with neurons in the arcuate and ventromedial hypothalamic nuclei. Tanycytes are glucosensitive and are able to respond to transmitters associated ...
متن کاملHypothalamic control of energy balance: different peptides, different functions.
Energy balance is maintained via a homeostatic system involving both the brain and the periphery. A key component of this system is the hypothalamus. Over the past two decades, major advances have been made in identifying an increasing number of peptides within the hypothalamus that contribute to the process of energy homeostasis. Under stable conditions, equilibrium exists between anabolic pep...
متن کاملHypothalamic malonyl-coenzyme A and the control of energy balance.
An intermediate in the fatty acid biosynthetic pathway, malonyl-coenzyme A (CoA), has emerged as a major regulator of energy homeostasis not only in peripheral metabolic tissues but also in regions of the central nervous system that control satiety and energy expenditure. Fluctuations in hypothalamic malonyl-CoA lead to changes in food intake and peripheral energy expenditure in a manner consis...
