      abstract = {Obesity rates are rising, yet treatments remain limited  due to incomplete understanding of energy homeostasis.  Neuropeptide Y (NPY) neurons in the dorsomedial  hypothalamus (DMH) have emerged as key regulators of  feeding behavior, promoting energy intake over expenditure.  This thesis examines DMH-NPY neurons during development,  lactation, and diet-induced obesity using gene expression  analysis, neuronal tracing, and characterization of leptin  and CART interactions. Findings reveal distinct mechanisms  driving DMH-NPY activation and hyperphagia, offering  insights into hypothalamic adaptations that favor positive  energy balance and contribute to obesity.},
