How does orexin work in the mechanisms of weight control?~Balance of exercise, feeding and energy consumption~

Scientists including IIIS researchers, Dr. Miyo Kakizaki, Dr. Hiromasa Funato, Dr. Masashi Yanagisawa and their collaborators at Toho University found that each orexin receptor signaling has a unique role in energy metabolism, and orexin neurons are involved in the interactive effect of diet and exercise on body weight gain.

The article, “Differential Roles of Each Orexin Receptor Signaling in Obesity” was published online in iScience on September 9, 2019.
