Abstract

Adult neural stem cells (NSCs) in the ventricular-subventricular zone (V-SVZ) produce diverse olfactory bulb (OB) neurons. In a recent paper in Science, Paul et al. (2017) show that hypothalamic propiomelanocortin (POMC) neurons innervate the anterior ventral V-SVZ and regulate deep granule interneuron production depending on feeding behavior.
