Hypothalamic apolipoprotein A-IV is regulated by leptin.
Apolipoprotein A-IV (apo A-IV) is a satiety factor involved in the control of food intake and body weight. Our previous studies demonstrated that apo A-IV is present in areas of the hypothalamus where leptin acts to influence energy homeostasis. In the present studies, we found that leptin-deficient obese (ob/ob) mice have significantly reduced hypothalamic apo A-IV mRNA levels. Intragastric in...
متن کاملHigh-fat-diet exposure induces IgG accumulation in hypothalamic microglia
The mediobasal hypothalamic arcuate nucleus (ARC), with its relatively 'leaky' blood-brain barrier that allows more circulating molecules to enter the brain, has emerged as a key sensor of blood-borne signals. In both the ARC and white adipose tissue (WAT), consumption of a high-fat diet (HFD) rapidly induces infiltration of microglia (ARC) or macrophages (WAT). Animals with HFD-induced obesity...
متن کاملExercise protects against high-fat diet-induced hypothalamic inflammation
Hypothalamic inflammation is a potentially important process in the pathogenesis of high-fat diet-induced metabolic disorders that has recently received significant attention. Microglia are macrophage-like cells of the central nervous system which are activated by pro-inflammatory signals causing local production of specific interleukins and cytokines, and these in turn may further promote syst...
متن کاملHigh-Fat Diet Induces Apoptosis of Hypothalamic Neurons
Consumption of dietary fats is amongst the most important environmental factors leading to obesity. In rodents, the consumption of fat-rich diets blunts leptin and insulin anorexigenic signaling in the hypothalamus by a mechanism dependent on the in situ activation of inflammation. Since inflammatory signal transduction can lead to the activation of apoptotic signaling pathways, we evaluated th...
متن کاملNovel leptin-regulated genes revealed by transcriptional profiling of the hypothalamic paraventricular nucleus.
Leptin plays a major role in coordinating the integrated response of the CNS to changes in nutritional state. Neurons within the paraventricular nucleus (PVN) of the hypothalamus express leptin receptors and receive dense innervation from leptin receptor-expressing neurons in the arcuate nucleus. To obtain new insights into the effects of circulating leptin on PVN function, we compared global t...
