This study shows that AgRP neurons regulate context-induced feeding through precise temporal firing patterns during context exposure.

The paper identifies a stress-sensitive anorexigenic pathway from the medial prefrontal cortex to the lateral hypothalamus in mice and shows its role in regulating food intake during stress.

This study shows that impaired metabolic-sensing in AgRP neurons reduces dopamine release in the dorsal striatum and suppresses reward-seeking behavior, especially under hunger.
