Abstract
There is extensive experimental evidence that high fat diet-induced obesity is accompanied by functional and structural alterations in the hypothalamus, the central structure involved in the control of caloric intake and energy homeostasis. Depending on time and magnitude of hypothalamic damage, key neurons involved in the regulation of food intake and energy expenditure can undergo apopt…

Abstract
Several studies using experimental models of obesity induced by high fat diet describe functional changes in the hypothalamus, central structure of regulation of the balance between caloric intake and energy expenditure. Among these alterations are apoptosis of neurons in the arched nucleus (ARC) region and reduction in the expression of anorexigenic neuropeptide pro-piolemolanocortin (PO…
