Centrally administered glucagon-like peptide-1 (GLP-1) supresses food intake. Here we demonstrate that GLP-1-producing (PPG) neurons in the nucleus tractus solitarii (NTS) are the predominant source of endogenous GLP-1 within the brain. Selective ablation of NTS PPG neurons by viral expression of diphtheria toxin subunit A (DTA) substantially reduced active GLP-1 concentrations in brain and spinal cord. Contrary to expectations, this loss of central GLP-1 had no significant effect on ad libitum feeding of mice, affecting neither daily chow intake nor body weight or glucose tolerance. Only after bigger challenges to homeostasis were PPG neurons necessary for food intake control. PPG-ablated mice increased food intake following a prolonged fast and after a liquid diet preload. Consistent with our ablation data, acute inhibition of hM4Di-expressing PPG neurons did not affect ad libitum feeding, however, it increased post-fast refeeding intake and blocked stress-induced hypophagia. Additionally, chemogenetic PPG neuron activation through hM3Dq caused a strong acute anorectic effect. We conclude that PPG neurons are not involved in primary intake regulation, but form part of a secondary satiation/satiety circuit, activated by both psychogenic stress and large meals. Given their hypophagic capacity, PPG neurons might be an attractive drug target in obesity treatment.
