When temperatures rise, appetite decreases: Neuronal circuit for reduced feeding at high temperatures decoded. This can be observed after a winter sauna visit as well as on a midsummer day outdoors. There is scientific evidence that feeding is reduced when we are acutely exposed to heat. However, the exact reasons for this were previously unknown. An international research team led by MedUni Vienna has now described for the first time the neuronal signalling pathway that reduces feeding upon heat exposure. Their findings could provide potential targets for the development of new treatments for obesity and anorexia, and have been published
