Glucose responsive neurons of the paraventricular thalamus control sucrose-seeking behavior

Feeding behavior is governed by homeostatic needs and motivational drive to obtain palatable foods. Here, we identify a population of glutamatergic neurons in the paraventricular thalamus, which express the glucose transporter Glut2 (Scl2a2) and project to the nucleus accumbens. These neurons are ac...
