POMC Neuron Heterogeneity

POMC Neuron Heterogeneity - POMC neurons of hypothalamic arcuate nucleus regulate food intake, energy homeostasis and glucose metabolism. Joel Elmquist and colleagues describe their new work that provides insight into the functional heterogeneity of POMC neurons and how activation of TRPC channels can regulate distict subpopulations of POMC neurons.
