Neuropeptide Y (NPY) is secreted by sympathetic nerves 1,2 , but its direct impact on thermogenic adipocytes unknown. Here we uncover the mechanism which peripheral NPY protects from obesity. Our imaging of cleared murine brown and white adipose tissue (BAT WAT) established that + axons are only a minority mostly maps to peri-vasculature; our analysis single-cell RNA-sequencing datasets identifies mural cells as main NPY-responsive in tissues. We show sustains cells, known be source beige...
