  "textContent": "Your brain’s “stop eating” signal may come from an unexpected source.

After a meal, glucose triggers tanycytes, which send signals to astrocytes that then activate fullness neurons. This newly discovered pathway could lead to innovative treatments for obesity and eating disorders.",
