MORGANE, P. J. AND A. J. KOSMAN. Relationship of the middle hypothalamus to amygdalar hyperphagia. Am. J. Ph ysiol. I g8(6) : 1315-1318. I g6o.-Stereotaxic lesions in the lateral hypothalamus of the cat at the level of the tuberal region were found not to alter food intake or body weight from preoperative control levels whereas lesions restricted to the ventromedial nuclei produced hyperphagia ...

Lateral intake is a structure constructed next to a main channel to divert part of the flow within the channel. The separated area of the flow in the entrance of intake channel has no effect on flow discharge while reduces the effective cross-sectional area of the intake, as well as the bed load, which enters the intake due to low velocity flow deposits in this area. Thus, knowing the dimension...

glucose and insulin are two important factors in regulation of food intake. also, existence of central glucoreceptors have been determined in human and many of  animal species, in this study the existence of central glucoreceptors and regulative role of glucose in ingestive behavior of broiler cockerels were studied. in this study used from 128 broiler cockerels. at the first, guide cannula imp...

Several lines of evidence suggest that brain histamine may be involved in the central control of food intake. The effect of histamine on feeding is mediated through three kinds of receptors (H1, H2, and H3). The present study was designed to investigate the effect of intracerebroventricular injection of histamine, promethazine (H1 antagonist) and ranitidine (H2 antagonist) on food intake of fre...

Histidine is an amino acid precursor of neuronal histamine. It is evident that peripheral injection of histidine produces effects that resemble to centrally administered histamine. The aim of the present study was to compare the effects of intracerebroventricular (ICV) injection of histamine and inraperitoneal (IP) injection of histidine on food intake in rabbits. ICV injections of histamine (1...

Aging is associated with a progressive decrease in appetite and food intake. Both A and B orexins, expressed in specific neurons of the lateral hypothalamic area, have been implicated in the regulation of sleep and feeding. In this study, the stimulatory effect of intracerebroventricular administration of the orexins on food intake was compared between young (4-mo-old) and old (25- to 27-mo-old...

The effect of intraventricular administration of noradrenaline (NA), dopamine (DA) or both on the lateral hypothalamic (LH) syndrome of aphagia and sensorimotor impairments was studied on 22 male hooded rats. It was found that 120 nmol of NA increased intake of palatable food in LH rats by 29.5 +/- 10.5 percent, 120 nmol of DA by 17.5 +/- 6.5 percent, and 60 nmol of simultaneously given each of...

We investigated whether chronic ethanol intake is capable of altering the MMP-2 and MMP-9 activities and TIMP-2 and TIMP-1 expression in the dorsal and lateral prostatic lobes of low (UChA) and high (UChB) ethanol-preferring rats. MMP-2 and MMP-9 activities and TIMP-1 and TIMP-2 expression were significantly reduced in the lateral prostatic lobe of the ethanol drinking animals. Dorsal prostatic...
