Asprosin is a centrally-acting orexigenic hormone
Asprosin is a recently discovered fasting-induced hormone that promotes hepatic glucose production. Here, we demonstrate that plasma asprosin crosses the blood-brain-barrier and directly activates orexigenic AgRP(+) neurons via a cAMP-dependent pathway. This signaling results in inhibition of downst...
