Obesity is associated with dysfunctions in hypothalamic neurons that regulate metabolism, including agouti-related protein (AgRP)-expressing neurons. In a recent article, Zhang et al. demonstrated that either dietor genetically induced obesity promoted iron accumulation specifically in AgRP neurons. Preventing iron overload in AgRP neurons mitigated diet-induced obesity and related comorbidities in male mice.
