| Gene Symbol | ent-gene-36cfc914 |
| Function | ### Metabolic Regulation |
| Neurochemical phenotype | Co-express TH, aromatic L-amino acid decarboxylase (AADC), and often dopamine transporter (DAT) |
| Electrophysiology | Exhibit pacemaker-like firing properties with calcium-dependent oscillations |
| Morphology | Medium-sized soma with extensive dendritic arborizations |
| Metabolic coupling | Respond to peripheral metabolic signals including leptin, insulin, and glucose |
| Co-neurotransmitters | Some co-express neuropeptide Y (NPY), galanin, or other peptides |
| Projection patterns | Distinct populations project to different brain regions |
| Metabolic status | Different responsiveness to energy state changes |
| Prolactin secretion | Dopaminergic inhibition of prolactin release |
| Growth hormone regulation | Modulate GH release through hypothalamic pathways |
| Reproductive function | Influence GnRH secretion and reproductive behavior |
| Stress responses | Coordinate metabolic and endocrine stress responses |
| Blood pressure | Modulate sympathetic tone |
| Heart rate | Influence cardiac vagal and sympathetic activity |
| Vasomotor tone | Control peripheral vascular resistance |
