Melanin-Concentrating Hormone: A New Sleep Factor?

Neurons containing the neuropeptide melanin-concentrating hormone (MCH) are mainly located in the lateral hypothalamus and the incerto-hypothalamic area, and have widespread projections throughout the brain. While the biological functions of this neuropeptide are exerted in humans through two metabotropic receptors, the MCHR1 and MCHR2, only the MCHR1 is present in rodents. Recently, it has bee...

Chronic Loss of Melanin-Concentrating Hormone Affects Motivational Aspects of Feeding in the Rat

Current epidemic obesity levels apply great medical and financial pressure to the strenuous economy of obesity-prone cultures, and neuropeptides involved in body weight regulation are regarded as attractive targets for a possible treatment of obesity in humans. The lateral hypothalamus and the nucleus accumbens shell (AcbSh) form a hypothalamic-limbic neuropeptide feeding circuit mediated by Me...

Complementary Roles of Orexin and Melanin-Concentrating Hormone in Feeding Behavior

Transcribed within the lateral hypothalamus, the neuropeptides orexin/hypocretin (OX) and melanin-concentrating hormone (MCH) both promote palatable food intake and are stimulated by palatable food. While these two neuropeptides share this similar positive relationship with food, recent evidence suggests that this occurs through different albeit complementary effects on behavior, with OX promot...

Melanin-concentrating hormone acutely stimulates feeding, but chronic administration has no effect on body weight.

Melanin-concentrating hormone (MCH) has recently been proposed as both a central stimulator and an inhibitor of food intake. To clarify its role, we investigated the effects of MCH and the prepro-MCH-derived peptide neuropeptide E-I injected intracerebroventricularly (icv) in rats. MCH (0.15-15 micrograms) was injected icv at the beginning of the light phase. Food intake at 2 h showed a dose-de...

The distribution of melanin-concentrating hormone in the lamprey brain.

In addition to its novel, colour-regulating hormonal role in teleosts, the melanin-concentrating hormone (MCH) serves as a neuromodulatory peptide in all vertebrate brains. In gnathostome vertebrates, it is produced in several neuronal cell groups in the hypothalamus. The present work examines the organisation of the MCH system in the brain of lampreys, which separated from gnathostome vertebra...
