Key words : Brain glucose sensing, hypothalamus, sweet taste detection and perception, neurons and astrocytes, ionic channels, mitochondria, metabolic pathologies (obesity, diabetes, hepatic and renal failures), food intake/behavior, metabolism.
Thematic : Control of food intake and energy metabolism
Molecular, cellular and integrated approaches to study the mechanisms that link brain nutrient sensing with the control of energy balance (food intake and metabolism), under physiological and pathological conditions in both human and animal models.
Research group in detail Open all tabs
Theme 1 :
1) The identification of cellular and molecular actors of hypothalamic nutrient sensing and their importance in energy homeostasis
Theme 2 :
2) The understanding of how energy status under both physiological and pathological conditions alters hypothalamic nutrient detection and gustative perception. Researches are conducted by exploring the control of food intake, preferences and metabolism in human beings. Cellular and molecular hypothalamic modifications/dysregulations are examined in depth using appropriate animal models.
