- Reposted by MPI-Metabolism🤩 I’m beyond excited to finally share our paper! 🎉 It’s been a long journey and a true team effort. Congratulations to our outstanding first authors, @lcreimon.bsky.social and Ayden Gouveia, and to all of the co-authors who made this possible 🙌! www.nature.com/articles/s42...
- You are what you eat! Actually, you are also what your mother smelled during pregnancy!🤰 👃smell of high fat diet during #pregnancy primes for #obesity in offspring Want to know more? Full story here www.nature.com/articles/s42... Congrats! 👏@sophiesteculorum.bsky.social @lcreimon.bsky.social
- Yesterday, Marc Tittgemeyer was a guest on nano talk on 3sat. The topic of the programme: Essen mit Risiko - Eating with risk. The programme will be aired tomorrow evening – it's worth tuning in, so don't miss it. 📺 ➡️ www.3sat.de/wissen/nano-...
- Reposted by MPI-MetabolismLean mice that smell food before eating feel full; obese mice don’t. Why? Research from @mpi-metabolism.bsky.social found a link between olfactory bulb nerve cells and the brain area that triggers satiety. This could shed light on how humans react to smelling food: bit.ly/4nX4XZI

- Exciting news from @sophiesteculorum.bsky.social Lab!🤓 👃🧠 Smelling food primes your brain for satiety. Find out more in 🧵 or under 🔗 www.nature.com/articles/s42... Congrats to @sophiesteculorum.bsky.social , first author @janice-bulk.bsky.social and all contributing authors!
- They mapped a sensory circuit where food odours activate medial septum glutamatergic neurons, limiting food intake before the first bite—and it's impaired in #obesity. #Neuroscience #Olfaction #SensoryPerception #ObesityResearch
- Newly identified group of nerve cells in the brain regulates bodyweight. 🧠 Nerve cells in the hypothalamus influence eating behavior and weight gain. 🍔 Nerve cells are controlled by the hormone leptin 💡 Potential to develop further targeted treatments for obesity www.sf.mpg.de/2106779/2505...
