The regulatory mechanisms of appetite are not fully understood. In this article, we introduce the history of experimental techniques related to feeding and the role of leptin in the hypothalamus. We also summarize previous studies of neural circuits related to feeding and the relationship of non-neuronal cells. Lastly, we report the progress of our study on the function of Olig2-positive cells in neuronal circuits for feeding.
