5-HT(2C)Rs Expressed by Pro-opiomelanocortin Neurons Regulate Insulin Sensitivity in Liver

Mice lacking 5-HT 2C receptors (5-HT(2C)Rs) displayed insulin resistance in the liver, a phenotype normalized by re-expression of 5-HT(2C)Rs only in pro-opiomelanocortin (POMC) neurons. 5-HT(2C)R deficiency also abolished anti-diabetic effects of mCPP (a 5-HT(2C)R agonist) while such effects were re...
