Effects of peripheral administration of 5-hydroxytryptamine (5-HT ) on 2-deoxy-D-glucose-induced hyperphagia in rats.

چکیده
Effects of peripheral administration of 5-HT (5-hydroxytryptamine, serotonin) on hyperphagia induced by 2-deoxy-D-glucose(2-DG) were studied in rats. It was found that 5-HT i.p. reduced 2-DG-elicited feeding in rats dose-dependently. The 5-HT-induced hypophagia was antagonized by the 5-HT2A receptor antagonist, ketanserin. It is known that 2-DG induces glucoprivation, resulting in hyperphagia and hyperglycemia. However, 5-HT did not affect hyperglycemia induced by 2-DG. These results suggest that peripheral injection of 5-HT reduces 2-DG-induced hyperphagia mediated by the peripheral 5-HT2A receptor and that its effects are not due to enhancement of hyperglycemia.

Relationship between neonatal testosterone and 5-hydroxytryptamine (5 HT) in controlling the pattern of LH release in adult rats
Relationship between neonatal testosterone and 5-hydroxytryptamine (5-HT) in controlling the pattern of LH release in adult rats was investigated in this study. Hypothalamic 5-HT concentrations are transiently lower in male as compared to female Wistar rats in the second week post-partum (pp). It has also been shown that pharmacologically potentiating 5-HT activity during this period feminizes ...

AIMS/INTRODUCTION Our previous study found that dexamethasone-induced insulin resistance (IR) was involved in 5-hydroxytryptamine (5-HT) synthesis and 5-hydroxytryptamine 2 receptor (5-HT2 R) in the periphery. The present study examined the effects of inhibitions of both peripheral 5-HT synthesis and 5-HT2 R on dexamethasone-induced IR. MATERIALS AND METHODS Male rats were exposed to dexameth...

متن کاملPeripheral nerve injury reduces analgesic effects of systemic morphine via spinal 5-hydroxytryptamine 3 receptors.
BACKGROUND Morphine produces powerful analgesic effects against acute pain, but it is not effective against neuropathic pain, and the mechanisms underlying this reduced efficacy remain unclear. Here, the authors compared the efficacy of systemic morphine between normal rats and rats with peripheral nerve injury, with a specific focus on descending serotonergic mechanisms. METHODS After L5 spi...
متن کامل[The effects of ketanserin on the hemodynamic response after intracerebroventricular administration of 5-hydroxytryptamine].
Recently, the serotonergic nervous system has been receiving attention, as it participates in the hemodynamic regulation as well as in the pathogenesis of hypertension. The purpose of this experiment is to investigate the role of the central and peripheral serotonergic receptor in the hemodynamic responses induced by intracerebroventricular (i.c.v) administration of 5-hydroxytryptamine (5-HT). ...
