Orexin depolarizes rat hypothalamic paraventricular nucleus neurons.
Orexins, also called hypocretins, are newly discovered hypothalamic peptides that are thought to be involved in various physiological functions. In spite of the fact that orexin receptors, especially orexin receptor 2, are abundant in the hypothalamic paraventricular nucleus (PVN), the effects of orexins on PVN neurons remain unknown. Using a whole cell patch-clamp recording technique, we inves...
متن کاملLeptin depolarizes rat hypothalamic paraventricular nucleus neurons.
Leptin, the protein product of the ob/ obgene, is thought to have a central site of action, presumably within the hypothalamus, through which it regulates feeding behavior. The paraventricular nucleus (PVN) is one structure that has been implicated in regulating feeding behavior. Using patch-clamp recording techniques, this study examines the direct membrane effects of leptin on neurons in a co...
متن کاملDepolarizing Actions of Hydrogen Sulfide on Hypothalamic Paraventricular Nucleus Neurons
Hydrogen sulfide (H2S) is a novel neurotransmitter that has been shown to influence cardiovascular functions as well and corticotrophin hormone (CRH) secretion. Since the paraventricular nucleus of the hypothalamus (PVN) is a central relay center for autonomic and endocrine functions, we sought to investigate the effects of H2S on the neuronal population of the PVN. Whole cell current clamp rec...
متن کاملRostroventrolateral medullary neurons modulate glucose homeostasis in the rat.
Several lines of evidence support the view that the premotor sympathetic input to the adrenal gland arises from the rostroventrolateral medulla (RVLM). The aim of this study was to determine whether RVLM neurons play a role in glucose homeostasis. We identified RVLM neurons that control epinephrine secretion by searching for medullospinal neurons that responded to neuroglucoprivation induced by...
متن کاملReduced immunoreactivity of tyrosine hydroxylase in the hypothalamic paraventricular nucleus of the seizure sensitive gerbil.
We compared the immunoreactivity and numbers of tyrosine hydroxylase (TH) immunoreactive neurons and neuropil in the paraventricular nucleus (PVN) of the hypothalamus between the seizure sensitive (SS) and seizure resistant (SR) gerbils. The distributional pattern of TH immunoreactivity was similar in both groups: TH immunoreactivity was seen mainly in magnocellular neurons of the PVN. However,...
