Dlx1/2 and Otp coordinate the production of hypothalamic GHRH- and AgRP-neurons

In the hypothalamus, the arcuate nucleus (ARC) contains AgRP-neurons that regulate energy balance as well as GHRH-neurons that regulate linear growth. Here, the authors looked at how the transcription factors Dlx1/2 and Otp link development of AgRP- and GHRH-neurons.
