Activity of specific cell types within ventral tegmental area, striatum, hypothalamus, and thalamus can influence distinct components of motivated feeding behavior.
The transition to maladaptive feeding behavior in eating disorders or obesity may arise from dysregulation of interactions between homeostatic signals and motivational circuits.
Signals of energy homeostasis interact closely with neural circuits of motivation to control food intake.
