Cold-induced hyperphagia requires AgRP neuron activation in mice

Cold-induced hyperphagia requires AgRP neuron activation in mice

To maintain energy homeostasis during cold exposure, the increased energy demands of thermogenesis must be counterbalanced by increased energy intake. To investigate the neurobiological mechanisms underlying this cold-induced hyperphagia, we asked whether agouti-related peptide (AgRP) neurons are ac...
