TLDR
In this article, the authors focus on several exemplar functions of interoception, including energy regulation (ingestion and excretion), memory, affective and emotional experience, and psychological sense of self.

The Emerging Science of Interoception: Sensing, Integrating, Interpreting, and Regulating Signals within the Self.

TL;DR: Interoception refers to the representation of the internal states of an organism, and includes the processes by which it senses, interprets, integrates, and regulates signals from within itself as discussed by the authors.

Neural Circuits of Interoception

TL;DR: In this article, the authors consider the extensive role of rostral neural systems, including cortical systems, in the recognition of internal body states, and the reciprocal role of efferent/descending systems in the regulation of those states, together these reciprocal interacting networks entail interoceptive circuits that play an important role in a broad range of functions beyond the homeostatic maintenance of physiological steady states.

Computational Models of Interoception and Body Regulation

TL;DR: A review of recent frameworks that extend classical homeostatic control via reflex arcs to include more flexible forms of adaptive behavior that take interoceptive context, experiences, and expectations into account can be found in this paper.

A multidimensional coding architecture of the vagal interoceptive system

TL;DR: In this article , a multidimensional coding architecture of the mammalian vagal interoceptive system for effective signal communication is presented, where the authors show that VSNs code visceral organs, tissue layer and stimulus modality.

Interoception of breathing and its relationship with anxiety.

TL;DR: In this article, the anterior insula was associated with both breathing-related prediction certainty and prediction errors, suggesting an important role in representing and updating models of the body, and individuals with low versus moderate anxiety traits showed differential anterior insular activity for prediction certainty.

How do you feel--now? The anterior insula and human awareness.

TL;DR: New findings suggest a fundamental role for the AIC (and the von Economo neurons it contains) in awareness, and thus it needs to be considered as a potential neural correlate of consciousness.

Cognitive, social, and physiological determinants of emotional state.

TL;DR: The problem of which cues, internal or external, permit a person to label and identify his own emotional state has been with us since the days that James (1890) first tendered his doctrine that "the bodily changes follow directly the perception of the exciting fact, and that our feeling of the same changes as they occur is the emotion" (p. 449) as mentioned in this paper.

The economy of brain network organization

TL;DR: It is proposed that brain organization is shaped by an economic trade-off between minimizing costs and allowing the emergence of adaptively valuable topological patterns of anatomical or functional connectivity between multiple neuronal populations.

Neural Mechanisms for Interacting with a World Full of Action Choices

TL;DR: An ethologically-inspired view of interactive behavior as simultaneous processes that specify potential motor actions and select between them is discussed, and how recent neurophysiological data from diverse cortical and subcortical regions appear more compatible with this parallel view than with the classical view of serial information processing stages.

The role of leptin and ghrelin in the regulation of food intake and body weight in humans: a review.

TL;DR: A review of the role of leptin and ghrelin in food intake and body weight in humans and their mechanism of action is presented in this article, where possible abnormalities in the leptin and Ghrelin systems that may contribute to the development of obesity are discussed.
