Both host metabolic processes and the gut microbiota exhibit diurnal regulation, and both contribute to the maintenance of glucose homeostasis (Thaiss et al., 2014; Bishehsari et al., 2020; Frazier et al., 2023) [1–3]. However, how the gut microbiota and the circadian rhythm interplay to control host glucose homeostasis is not fully understood. Here, we identified gut microbiota-derived extracellular vesicles (MEV) as a potential peripheral Zeitgeber (time cue) for the hepatic circadian clock, controlling hepatic gluconeogenesis. Host feeding patterns influence the gut microbiota, driving the diurnal production of MEV. Gut MEV levels coincide with the activity of hepatic gluconeogenesis, with overnight fasting associated with increased production of MEV by gut bacteria. MEV directly activates hepatic gluconeogenesis and chronic increase in MEV exposure impairs glucose homeostasis <em>in vivo</em>. Our finding highlights a mechanism by which the gut microbiota has co-evolved with the host to support its glucose needs during periods of energy demands (such as during fasting or starvation). On the contrary, an abnormal increase in MEV production, leading to dysregulated gluconeogenesis, may underlie various glucose-associated disorders, such as type 2 or gestational diabetes. Together, our data reconcile the gut microbiota and circadian rhythm in the control of host glucose homeostasis and metabolic health.</div></div>","PeriodicalId":18765,"journal":{"name":"Molecular Metabolism","volume":"98 ","pages":"Article 102180"},"PeriodicalIF":7.0,"publicationDate":"2025-06-06","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"144248802","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":2,"RegionCategory":"医学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

BNST VGluT3 neurons projected to arcuate nucleus (ARC) and paraventricular nucleus of the hypothalamus (PVN), regions critical for feeding and homeostatic regulation. Most single BNST VGluT3 neurons projected to either PVN or ARC and a subset projected to both. BNST VGluT3 neurons functionally transmit GABA to both ARC and PVN, with rare glutamate co-transmission to ARC. <em>In vivo</em>, VGluT3 BNST neurons showed greater neuronal activity in response to sucrose consumption while sated compared with fasted. When fasted, optogenetic stimulation of BNST VGluT3 neurons decreased sucrose consumption using several stimulation conditions but not when stimulation occurred prior to sucrose access, suggesting that BNST VGluT3 activation concurrent with consumption in the fasted state reduces feeding. BNST VGluT3 activation had no effect on anxiety-like behavior in several paradigms (novelty-suppressed feeding, open field, and elevated zero maze). BNST VGluT3 activation also did not result in real-time place preference or aversion.</div></div><div><h3>Conclusions</h3><div>We interpret these data such that VGluT3 BNST neurons represent a unique cellular population within the BNST that provides inhibitory input to hypothalamic regions to decrease sucrose consumption.</div></div>","PeriodicalId":18765,"journal":{"name":"Molecular Metabolism","volume":"98 ","pages":"Article 102178"},"PeriodicalIF":7.0,"publicationDate":"2025-06-06","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"144248814","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":2,"RegionCategory":"医学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
