1 Supplemental data Supplemental Figure Legends Supplemental Figure 1. Analysis of deletion of AMPK!2 in POMC and AgRP neurons in control and POMC!2KO and AgRP!2KO mice. (A) mmunofluorescence analysis for AMPK!2 (green) and POMC (red) expression in the hypothalami of control and POMC!2KO mice. Colocalisation of typical nuclear staining of AMPK!2 is seen in POMC neurons in control section (indicated by white arrows) and no colocalization is seen in POMC!2KO section. (B) mmunofluorescence analysis for AMPK!2 (red) and AgRPCreYFP (green) expression in the hypothalami of control and AgRP!2KOYFP mice. Colocalisation of typical nuclear staining of AMPK!2 is seen in AgRP neurons in control section (indicated by white arrows) and no colocalization is seen in AgRP!2KOYFP section. Confocal images of representative ARC fields are shown and are typical of results from 3 mice of each genotype. Scale bars: 1 µm. (C) Quantification of deletion of AMPK!2 in POMC!2KO and AgRP!2KO neurons. AMPK!2 staining was assessed in at least 5 POMC or AgRP neurons from 3 mice of each genotype. Results are expressed as percentage of cells in which AMPK!2 expression was absent and are means " SEM. Supplemental Figure 2. Unaltered neuropeptide release in hypothalamic explants from POMC!2KO and AgRP!2KO mice and normal anterior pituitary hormone gene expression in POMC!2KO mice. (A)!-MSH release in control and POMC!2KO hypothalamic explants (n = 15 per genotype). (B) AgRP and (C) NPY release in control and AgRP!2KO hypothalamic explants (n = 8 per genotype). (D) Pre-pro-opiomelanocortin (POMC), growth hormone (GH) and thyroid stimulating hormone beta subunit (TSH#) mrna expression in control and POMC!2KO pituitaries assessed by quantitative RT-PCR, n = 6-1. Probes for GAPDH were used to adjust for total RNA content. All values are mean " SEM.

(A) n situ hybridization for AgRP mrna in ARC of control and AgRP!2KO mice. Representative sections from 3 mice for each genotype are shown. (B) mmunoreactivity for AgRP in ARC of control and AgRP!2KO mice. Representative sections from 3 mice for each genotype are presented. Population size and distribution (C and D) for AgRP neurons within the ARC in control and AgRP!2KO mice (n = 2-3). AgRP somatic area (E) and diameter (F) in control and AgRP!2KO mice. A minimum of 1 neurons were analysed per group. 3V, 3 rd ventricle. Scale bars, 5 $m. All values are mean " SEM.
