Similarly, the eating rate, estimated as the total amount of food consumed in total meal duration, showed that Ad‐shGLUT2 rats had a higher eating rate (Figure 8 c), which correlated with the highly significant increase in food intake (Figure 7 b). 4 DISCUSSION Here, we show that GLUT2 inhibition in tanycytes disrupted the hypothalamic glucosensing mechanism that controls feeding behavior.
