Cannabinoid CB1 receptor in dorsal telencephalic glutamatergic neurons drives overconsumption of palatable food and obesity

This groundbreaking study by Inigo Ruiz de Azua and colleagues sheds light on the crucial role of the cannabinoid type 1 receptor (CB1) in the brain's glutamatergic neurons. Mice genetically modified to lack CB1 in these neurons displayed significantly reduced body weight and food intake when exposed to palatable diets, revealing new insights into the mechanisms of hedonic feeding and obesity development.... show more
