Leptin-sensitive hypothalamic Lepr+/Glp1r+ neurons limit hyperphagia and weight gain in diet-induced obesity

Abstract Despite loss of responsiveness to exogenous leptin in obesity, endogenous leptin continues to restrain feeding, although the neural substrates that remain sensitive and mediate this effect remain unknown. Combining spatial transcriptomics with single-nucleus RNA sequenci...
