Nesfatin-1 inhibits NPY neurons in the arcuate nucleus.
Although the novel satiety factor nesfatin-1 has been shown to influence feeding behavior through effects on melanocortin signaling, the specific hypothalamic neuronal substrates through which such effects are mediated have yet to be elucidated. To identify neuronal cell types potentially important in mediating nesfatin-1's effects, whole cell current clamp recordings were made from hypothalami...
متن کاملQuantitative age-related changes in NADPH-diaphorase-positive neurons in the ventral lateral geniculate nucleus.
Age-related changes in nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide phosphate-diaphorase (NADPH-d) were examined in the rat ventral lateral geniculate nucleus (vLGN) using histochemical methods. Eighteen rats aged 3, 24, and 26 months were studied using quantitative methods to investigate the number of neurons per mm(2), the cross-sectional area, and the orientation of dendritic processes of NADPH-d-posit...
متن کاملEvaluation of gender-related differences in response to oxidative stress in toxoplasma gondii positive serum
Purpose: Toxoplasma gondii (T. gondii) is the causative agent of toxoplasmosis. It infects up to one third of the human population. The aim of this study was to evaluate the effects of T. gondii infection on induction of oxidative stress in serum of infected men and women. Materials and Methods: This case-control study was carried out on 150 individuals who had referred to our center ...
متن کاملAcylated and Desacylated Ghrelin, Preptin, Leptin, and Nesfatin-1 Peptide Changes Related to the Body Mass Index
This study examines the levels of acylated and desacylated ghrelin, preptin, leptin, and nesfatin-1 peptide changes related to the body mass index (BMI). The subjects were allocated to 5 groups depending on their BMIs as follows: Group I (BMI <18.5 kg/m(2)); Group II (BMI 18.5-24.9 kg/m(2)); Group III (BMI 25-29.9 kg/m(2)); Group IV (BMI 30-39.9 kg/m(2)); Group V (BMI >40 kg/m(2)). Serum acylat...
متن کاملRole of Brain NUCB2/nesfatin-1 in the Stress-induced Modulation of Gastrointestinal Functions
BACKGROUND Nucleobindin2 (NUCB2)/nesfatin-1 plays a well-established role in homeostatic functions associated with food intake and stress integration. AIM This review focusses on NUCB2/nesfatin-1's central effects on gastrointestinal functions and will summarize the effects on food intake, motility and secretion with focus on the upper gastrointestinal tract. RESULTS We will highlight the s...
