Washington D.C. [USA], Oct. 19 : The nerves we feel before a stressful event, like speaking in public, for example, are normally kept in check by a complex system of circuits in our brain.

Scientists at Rockefeller University have identified a key molecule within this circuitry that is responsible for relieving anxiety. Intriguingly, it doesn't appear to reduce anxiety in female mice, only in males.

"This is unusual, because the particular cell type involved here is the same in the male and female brain, same in number, same in appearance," said researcher Nathaniel Heintz. "It's a rare case where a single cell type is activated by the same stimulus but yields two different behaviors in each gender."

In a study by of mice, the MIT neuroscientists found that activating these cells stimulates overeating, and that when the cells are suppressed, appetite is also suppressed.

The findings could offer scientists a new target for developing drugs against obesity and other appetite-related disorders, the researchers said.

The study is also the latest in recent years to implicate glial cells in important brain functions. Until about 10 years ago, glial cells were believed to play more of a supporting role for neurons.
