surprised residents in the Cape Town, South Africa, neighborhood of Gordon’s Bay.In an inspired, active cuteness, the locals saw fit to give this massive elephant seal a name, Gordon, or Gordy for short. You can learn more about this incredible story by watching the video below.
According to this video, Gordy caused something of a traffic accident as he shimmied his way through the suburban neighborhoods of Gordon’s Bay.
While that might sound annoying, Gordy quickly won the hearts of everyone he encountered, which led to them giving him his affectionate name.This part of the brainstem includes two key areas: the area postrema and the nucleus of the solitary tract. Both are known to influence appetite, digestion, and metabolism. When semaglutide reaches this region, it activates brain cells that reduce hunger and body weight. But the details of that process have remained unclear—until now.
To better understand which brain cells were responsible for semaglutide’s effects, researchers at the Sahlgrenska Academy tracked how the drug affected mice. After semaglutide was injected, they looked for brain cells that became active. They found that many of these cells in the area postrema and the nucleus of the solitary tract expressed a gene called. This gene produces a neuropeptide called PACAP (pituitary adenylate cyclase-activating polypeptide), which is known to influence appetite and metabolism.
To test whether these-positive neurons were truly responsible for semaglutide’s effects, the team used advanced tools to stimulate them directly—without using the drug. When activated, these neurons caused the mice to eat less and
