AgRP/NPY Neuron Excitability Is Modulated by Metabotropic Glutamate Receptor 1 During Fasting

The potential to control feeding behavior via hypothalamic AgRP/NPY neurons has led to many approaches to modulate their excitability—particularly by glutamatergic input. In the present study using NPY-hrGFP reporter mice, we visualize AgRP/NPY neuronal metabotropic glutamate receptor 1 (mGluR1) exp...
