Here, we demonstrate that reactivation of semaglutide-responsive dorsal vagal complex neurons mimics the drug’s effects of reducing food intake and body weight and promoting fat utilization and conditioned taste aversion. We observe that many of the semaglutide-activated area postrema (AP) and nucleus of the solitary tract (NTS) neurons express <em>Adcyap1</em> mRNA, and ablation of AP/NTS <em>Adcyap1</em><sup>+</sup> neurons largely reverses semaglutide’s effects on energy balance acutely in lean mice and in subchronically treated obese mice. Semaglutide-activated AP/NTS <em>Adcyap1</em><sup>+</sup> neurons promote the loss of fat rather than lean mass, with only a modest effect on conditioned taste aversion. Furthermore, NTS <em>Adcyap1</em><sup>+</sup> neurons are engaged by GLP-1R-expressing AP neurons and are necessary for semaglutide-induced activation of several downstream satiety-related structures. Selective targeting of semaglutide-responsive <em>Adcyap1</em><sup>+</sup> neurons holds potential for improved future anti-obesity treatments.","PeriodicalId":9840,"journal":{"name":"Cell metabolism","volume":"79 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":29.0,"publicationDate":"2025-05-22","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"144114385","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":1,"RegionCategory":"生物学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
