Dilsiz, Pelin; Aklan, İltan; Sayar Atasoy, Nilufer; Yavuz, Yavuz; Filiz, Gizem; Köksalar, Fulya; Ateş, Tayfun; Öncül, Merve; Çoban, İlknur; Ateş Öz, Edanur; Cebecioğlu, Utku; Alp, Muhammed İkbal; Yılmaz, Bayram; Atasoy, Deniz (Karger, 2020)Background: Melanin-concentrating hormone (MCH)-expressing neurons have been implicated in regulation of energy homeostasis and reward, yet the role of their electrical activity in short-term appetite and reward modulation ... -
NTS catecholamine neurons mediate hypoglycemic hunger via medial hypothalamic feeding pathways
Aklan, İltan; Sayar Atasoy, Nilufer; Yavuz, Yavuz; Ateş, Tayfun; Çoban, İlknur; Köksalar, Fulya; Filiz, Gizem; Topçu, İskalen Cansu; Öncül, Merve; Dilsiz, Pelin; Cebecioğlu, Utku; Alp, Muhammed İkbal; Yılmaz, Bayram; Davis, Deborah R.; Hajdukiewicz, Karolina; Saito, Kenji; Konopka, Witold; Cui, Huxing; Atasoy, Deniz (Cell Press, 2020)Glucose is the essential energy source for the brain, whose deficit, triggered by energy deprivation or therapeutic agents, can be fatal. Increased appetite is the key behavioral defense against hypoglycemia; however, the ...
