DSK regulates sugar sensitivity and feeding in Drosophila. (a) The MP1/MP3 neurons receive nutrient signals of unknown origin. Upon feeding DSK is released and inhibits responsiveness of afferent gustatory receptor neurons (GRNs) that express the DSK receptor CCKL17D3, as well as the sugar receptor Gr64f and the gene takeout (to). (b) Scheme depicting the action of MP1/MP3 neurons after food intake. It is likely that a parallel pathway acts on unknown neurons (indicated by ?) to decrease sugar sensing. Panel b is based on Guo et al. [45]
