SMUTZ, E. R., E. H1RSCH AND H. L. JACOBS. Caloric compensation in hypothalamic obese rats. PHYSIOL. BEHAV. 14(3) 305-309, 1975. The present study explored the influence of pelleted diets on adjustment to caloric dilution in hypothalamic obese rats. Medial hypothalamic lesioned and normal rats were maintained on a high fat diet until the static stage of hyperphagia was reached, They were given three pelleted diets which consisted of undiluted Noyes pellets and Noyes pellets diluted 25 or 50 percent with kaolin. In contrast to previous reports that hypothalamic obese rats do not compensate for caloric dilution of their diet, the obese animals showed as large an increase in food intake on the dilute pelleted diets as did the control animals. These results were interpreted by viewing texture as a dimension of palatability which influences food intake in hypothalamic obese rats.

Role of VMH ketone bodies in adjusting caloric intake to increased dietary fat content in DIO and DR rats.

The objective of this study was to determine the potential role of astrocyte-derived ketone bodies in regulating the early changes in caloric intake of diet induced-obese (DIO) versus diet-resistant (DR) rats fed a 31.5% fat high-energy (HE) diet. After 3 days on chow or HE diet, DR and DIO rats were assessed for their ventromedial hypothalamic (VMH) ketone bodies levels and neuronal ventromedi...

Chronic exercise lowers the defended body weight gain and adiposity in diet-induced obese rats.

The effects of running wheel exercise and caloric restriction on the regulation of body weight, adiposity, and hypothalamic neuropeptide expression were compared in diet-induced obese male rats over 6 wk. Compared with sedentary controls, exercising rats had reduced body weight gain (24%), visceral (4 fat pads; 36%) and carcass (leptin; 35%) adiposity but not insulin levels. Hypothalamic arcuat...

Increase in ghrelin levels after weight loss in obese Zucker rats is prevented by gastric banding.

BACKGROUND Gastric banding is thought to decrease appetite in addition to the mechanical effects of food restriction, although this has been difficult to demonstrate in human studies. Our aim was to investigate the changes in orexigenic signals in the obese Zucker rat after gastric banding. METHODS Obese Zucker rats (fa/fa) were submitted to gastric banding (GBP), sham gastric banding fed ad ...

The influence of dehydroepiandrosterone and 8-OH-DPAT on the caloric intake and hypothalamic neurotransmitters of lean and obese Zucker rats.

The 5 HT(1A) receptor agonist 8-hydroxy-2-(di-n-propylamino)-tetraline (8-OH-DPAT) increases the food intake of satiated Zucker rats, both lean and obese. Associated with this increased intake are changes in the hypothalamic content of serotonin and its metabolite, 5-HIAA (5-hydroxyindole-3-acetic acid); serotonin is increased while the level of 5-HIAA is decreased. Analysis of individual 5-HIA...
