Mechanism of lipolysis induced by electrical stimulation of the hypothalamus in the rabbit.
نویسندگان
چکیده
Electrical stimulation of the ventro-medial hypothalamus of the rabbit elevated plasma glycerol concentration. This elevation was suppressed by treatments of the animals with hexamethonium and propranolol, or by adrenalectomy, but was not suppressed by treatments with atropine and phentolamine. These results would indicate that the effect of electrical stimulation of ventro-medial hypothalamus is mainly mediated by catecholamine(s) liberated from the adrenal medulla and acts on beta-receptor of adipose tissue.

متن کاملThe Effect of Chronic Inflammation on Knee Joint Vascular β-adrenoceptors in Rabbit
It has been shown that inflammation reduces the effectiveness of sympathetic nerves in the regulation of knee joint blood flow, and the joint vascular- ß adrenoceptors are changed due to acute inflammation from a majority of ß-1 to an equality of ß-1 and ß-2 receptors.. To investigate the role of sympathetic nerves in nerve induced vasoconstriction and changes in joint vascular ß-adrenoceptors ...
متن کاملLateral hypothalamus chemical stimulation-induced antinociception was attenuated by injection of dopamine D1 and D2 receptor antagonists in the ventral tegmental area
Introduction: Stimulation or inactivation of the lateral hypothalamus (LH) produces antinociception. Studies showed a role for the ventral tegmental area (VTA) in the antinociception induced by LH chemical stimulation through the orexinergic receptors. In this study, we assessed the role of intra-VTA dopamine D1 and D2 receptors in antinociceptive effects of cholinergic agonist, carbachol, m...
متن کاملRole of Orexin-A receptors within the Locus Coeruleus in the antinociception induced by microinjection of carbachol into the lateral hypothalamus
Introduction: Previous studies have shown that stimulation of lateral hypothalamus (LH) produces antinociception. Orexin-A (OXA) receptor is strongly expressed in the nucleus locus coeruleus (LC) and orexinergic fibers densely project from LH to LC. In this study, we assessed the role of LC and its OXA receptors in antinociceptive response induced by LH chemical stimulation in the rat. Meth...
متن کاملIntra-accumbal orexin-1 receptors are involved in antinociception induced by stimulation of the lateral hypothalamus in the formalin test as an animal model of persistent inflammatory pain
Orexin, mainly produced by orexin-expressing neurons in the lateral hypothalamus (LH), plays an important role in pain modulation. Moreover, it is shown that the nucleus accumbens (NAc) is one of the important areas involved in this modulation. Orexin-1 (OX1) and orexin-2 (OX2) receptors are densely distributed in the NAc. The study investigated the involvement of OX1 receptors in the NAc on an...
