Melanocortin-3 receptors in the limbic system mediate feeding-related motivational responses during weight loss

OBJECTIVE: Appetitive responses to weight loss are mediated by a nutrient-sensing neural network comprised of melanocortin neurons. The role of neural melanocortin-3 receptors (MC3R) in mediating these responses is enigmatic. Mc3r knockout mice exhibit a paradoxical phenotype of obesity and reduced...
