Fatty diets and obesity affect the structure and function of astrocytes, the star-shaped brain cells located in the striatum, a brain region involved in the perception of pleasure generated by food consumption. What is even more surprising is that by manipulating these astrocytes in vivo in mice, it can influence metabolism and correct certain cognitive changes associated with obesity (ability to relearn a task, for example).
