However, despite growing evidence, the neural mechanisms by which the PVT gates feeding, energy balance and nutrients partitioning remain largely unknown.<\/p>\n<p>Here, we show that catecholaminergic projections from the hindbrain to the PVT and a specific subpopulation of PVT-neurons, notably those expressing the dopamine D2 receptors, promptly and bidirectionally gate feeding behaviours, body homeostasis and energy balance, thereby contributing to the control of energy-related adaptive responses in both physiological and obesogenic contexts. In addition, by combining complementary cutting-edge strategies (cell-type specific chemogenetics,\u00a0<i>ex vivo<\/i>\u00a0and\u00a0<i>in vivo<\/i>\u00a0neuronal dynamics) to functional behavioural and metabolic readouts, we describe PVT D2R-neurons as gatekeepers of hunger and satiety.<\/p>\n<div>\n<p>These results may lead to a new understanding of unconventional brain circuits involved in food-related disorders and may provide new therapeutic solutions to counterbalance obesity-associated dysfunctions.<\/p>\n<h3>Recent publications<\/h3>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov\/38361126\/\">Castel et al., 2024 (Mol Psychiatry, PMID: 38361126)<\/a><br \/>\n<a href=\"https:\/\/pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov\/35648134\/\">Dumont et al., 2022 (J Physiol, PMID: 35648134)<\/a><br \/>\n<a href=\"https:\/\/pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov\/35075269\/\">Berland et al., 2022 (Mol Psychiatry, PMID: 35075269)<\/a><br \/>\n<a href=\"https:\/\/pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov\/34148784\/\">Berland et al., 2021 (Trends Endocrinol Metab, PMID: 34148784)<\/a><br \/>\n<a href=\"https:\/\/pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov\/32142669\/\">Berland et al., 2020 (Cell Metab, PMID: 32142669)<\/a><\/p>\n<\/div>","excerpt":"<p>The paraventricular thalamus: a new player in the control of feeding behaviours and energy balance \/\/ Venue: CGFB<\/p>","slug":"seminar-giuseppe-gangarossa","image":false,"all_day":false,"start_date":"2024-06-12 15:00:00","start_date_details":{"year":"2024","month":"06","day":"12","hour":"15","minutes":"00","seconds":"00"},"end_date":"2024-06-12 17:00:00","end_date_details":{"year":"2024","month":"06","day":"12","hour":"17","minutes":"00","seconds":"00"},"utc_start_date":"2024-06-12 13:00:00","utc_start_date_details":{"year":"2024","month":"06","day":"12","hour":"13","minutes":"00","seconds":"00"},"utc_end_date":"2024-06-12 15:00:00","utc_end_date_details":{"year":"2024","month":"06","day":"12","hour":"15","minutes":"00","seconds":"00"},"timezone":"Europe\/Paris","timezone_abbr":"CEST","cost":"","cost_details":{"currency_symbol":"","currency_position":"prefix","values":[]},"website":"","show_map":false,"show_map_link":false,"hide_from_listings":false,"sticky":false,"featured":false,"categories":[{"name":"For scientists","slug":"for-scientists","term_group":0,"term_taxonomy_id":301,"taxonomy":"tribe_events_cat","description":"","parent":0,"count":768,"filter":"raw","id":301,"urls":{"self":"https:\/\/www.bordeaux-neurocampus.fr\/en\/wp-json\/tribe\/events\/v1\/categories\/301","collection":"https:\/\/www.bordeaux-neurocampus.fr\/en\/wp-json\/tribe\/events\/v1\/categories"}},{"name":"home-event","slug":"home-event","term_group":0,"term_taxonomy_id":285,"taxonomy":"tribe_events_cat","description":"","parent":0,"count":809,"filter":"raw","id":285,"urls":{"self":"https:\/\/www.bordeaux-neurocampus.fr\/en\/wp-json\/tribe\/events\/v1\/categories\/285","collection":"https:\/\/www.bordeaux-neurocampus.fr\/en\/wp-json\/tribe\/events\/v1\/categories"}},{"name":"Impromptu seminar","slug":"impromptu-seminar","term_group":0,"term_taxonomy_id":212,"taxonomy":"tribe_events_cat","description":"","parent":0,"count":192,"filter":"raw","id":212,"urls":{"self":"https:\/\/www.bordeaux-neurocampus.fr\/en\/wp-json\/tribe\/events\/v1\/categories\/212","collection":"https:\/\/www.bordeaux-neurocampus.fr\/en\/wp-json\/tribe\/events\/v1\/categories"}}],"tags":[],"venue":[],"organizer":[],"json_ld":{"@context":"http:\/\/schema.org","@type":"Event","name":"Seminar &#8211; Giuseppe Gangarossa","description":"&lt;p&gt;The paraventricular thalamus: a new player in the control of feeding behaviours and energy balance \/\/ Venue: CGFB&lt;\/p&gt;\\n","url":"https:\/\/www.bordeaux-neurocampus.fr\/en\/event\/seminar-giuseppe-gangarossa\/","startDate":"2024-06-12T15:00:00+02:00","endDate":"2024-06-12T17:00:00+02:00","performer":"Organization"}}
