Too fat to fly? New brain circuits regulate obesity in Drosophila.

Karla R Kaun1, Ulrike Heberlein.   

Abstract

In mammals, fat store levels are regulated by brain centers that control food intake and metabolism. A new study by Al-Anzi and colleagues in this issue of Neuron identifies neurons with similar functions in Drosophila, further establishing the fly as a legitimate model to study obesity.
