Since experiments regarding a possible relation between olanzapine and orexin A has been scarcely reported in international literature, this experiment tested the effect of olanzapine on the sympathetic and thermogenic effects induced by orexin A. The firing rates of the sympathetic nerves to interscapular brown adipose tissue (IBAT), along with IBAT, colonic temperatures and heart rate were monitored in urethane-anesthetized male Sprague-Dawley rats before an injection of orexin A (1.5 nmol) into the lateral cerebral ventricle and over a period of 150 min after the injection. The same variables were monitored in rats with an intraperitoneal administration of olanzapine (10mg/kg bw), injected 30 min before the orexin administration. The results show that orexin A increases the sympathetic firing rate, IBAT, colonic temperatures and heart rate. This increase is blocked by the injection of olanzapine. These findings indicate that olanzapine affects the complex reactions related to activation of orexinergic system. 相似文献

This experiment tested the effect of risperidone on the sympathetic and thermogenic effects induced by orexin A. The firing rates of sympathetic nerves to interscapular brown adipose tissue (IBAT), along with IBAT and colon temperatures and heart rate were monitored in urethane-anesthetized male Sprague-Dawley rats before an injection of orexin A (1.5 nmol) into the lateral cerebral ventricle and over a period of 2 hours after the injection. The same variables were monitored in rats with an intraperitoneal administration of risperidone (50 mg/kg bw), injected 30 min before the orexin administration. The results show that orexin A increases the sympathetic firing rate, IBAT, colonic temperatures and heart rate. This increase is enhanced by the injection of risperidone. These findings suggest that risperidone elevates the responses due to orexin, probably through an involvement of serotoninergic and dopaminergic pathways, which are affected by risperidone. Furthermore, we suggested the name "hyperthermine A" as additional denomination of "orexin A" by considering the strong influence of this neuropeptide on body temperature. 相似文献

This experiment tested the effect of a lesion of cerebral catecholaminergic neurons on the sympathetic and thermogenic effects induced by an intracerebroventicular (icv) injection of orexin A. The firing rates of the sympathetic nerves to the interscapular brown adipose tissue (IBAT), along with IBAT, colonic temperatures and heart rate were monitored in urethane-anesthetized male Sprague-Dawley rats before an injection of orexin A (1.5 nmol) into the lateral cerebral ventricle and over a period of 150 min after the injection. Three days before the experiment, the rats were pre-treated with an icv injection of 6-hydroxydopamine (6-OHDA) or 6-OHDA plus desipramine or saline. The results show that orexin A increases the sympathetic firing rate, IBAT, colonic temperatures and heart rate in the rats pre-treated with saline. This increase is blocked by the pre-treatment with 6-OHDA alone or 6-OHDA plus desipramine. These findings indicate that cerebral catecholaminergic neurons (particularly the dopaminergic pathway) play a fundamental role in the complex reactions related to activation of the orexinergic system. 相似文献

The aim of this experiment was to evaluate the effects of an intracerebroventricular (icv) injection of prostaglandin E1 (PGE1) on the sympathetic activation and the thermogenic changes in rats with acute lesions of the ventromedial hypothalamus (VMH). Four groups of six Sprague-Dawley male rats were anesthetized with ethyl-urethane. The firing rate of the sympathetic nerves innervating the interscapular brown adipose tissue (IBAT) and the colonic and IBAT temperatures were monitored both before and after one of the following treatments: 1) VMH lesion plus icv injection of PGE1 (500 ng); 2) VMH lesion plus icv injection of saline; 3) sham lesion plus icv injection of PGE1; and 4) sham lesion plus icv injection of saline. PGE1 induced an increase in the firing rate of IBAT nerves and the colonic and IBAT temperatures. These effects were reduced by VMH lesion. The findings indicate that acute lesions of the VMH reduce the effects of PGE1 and seem to suggest a possible role played by the VMH in the control of the sympathetic activation and the thermogenic changes during PGE1 hyperthermia. 相似文献

The level of γ-aminobutyric acid (GABA) in the posterior hypothalamus, the firing rate of the nerves innervating interscapular brown adipose tissue (IBAT), IBAT and colonic temperatures (TIBAT and Tc) were monitored in urethane-anesthetized male Sprague–Dawley rats. These variables were measured before and after an intracerebroventricular injection of 500 ng prostaglandin E1 (PGE1). The same variables were monitored in other rats with saline injection. The results showed that PGE1 caused an increase in GABA concentration, firing rate, TIBAT, Tc. These findings suggest that GABA-ergic tone in the posterior hypothalamus is important in the control of the sympathetic and thermogenic changes induced by PGE1. 相似文献

The experiment described here tests the effect of intracerebroventricular (icv) injection of nitric oxide (NO) precursors, such as L-arginine (L-arg) and nitroprusside (NP), on the thermogenic changes induced by lesion of the lateral hypothalamus (LH). The firing rate of the nerves innervating interscapular brown adipose tissue (IBAT), along with IBAT and colonic temperatures (TIBAT and TC) were monitored in urethane-anesthetized male Sprague-Dowley rats lesioned in the LH. These variables were measured before and after and icv injection of 4 μmol L-arg or 400 nmol NP. The same variables were also monitored in: a) lesioned rats with icv administration of saline; b) sham-lesioned animals with icv injection of L-arg or NP; c) sham-lesioned rats with icv injection of saline. The results show that L-arg or NP injection reduces the increases in firing rate, TIBAT, and TC induced by LH lesion. These findings suggest that NO plays a key role in the thermogenic changes following LH lesion. 相似文献

The sympathetic firing rate of the nerves innervating interscapular brown adipose tissue (IBAT), IBAT and colonic temperatures (TIBAT and TC) were monitored in urethane-anaesthetized male Sprague-Dawley rats. These variables were measured for a period of 40 min before (baseline values) and 40 min after a 2 mg NG-methyl-L-arginine (NMA) injection plus an intracerebroventricular administration of 500 ng prostaglandin E1 (PGE1) into a lateral cerebral ventricle. No drug was injected in control rats. The results show that NMA enhances the increases in firing rate, TIBAT and TC induced by PGE1. These findings indicate that an inhibitor of nitric oxide synthesis, such as NMA, increases the sympathetic and thermogenic responses to injection of PGE1. 相似文献

This experiment tested the effects of an intracerebroventricular injection of prostaglandin E1 on the sympathetic activation and the thermogenic changes in rats with ibotenate lesions of the ventromedial hypothalamus. Under pentobarbital anesthesia, twelve Sprague-Dawley male rats were lesioned bilaterally in the ventromedial hypothalamus with an injection of ibotenic acid (30 nmol into each side). Sham lesions were carried out in other twelve control rats. After 48 h, all animals were anesthetized with ethyl-urethane. The firing rate of the sympathetic nerves innervating the interscapular brown adipose tissue and the colonic and interscapular brown adipose tissue temperatures were monitored before and after an intracerebroventricular injection of prostaglandin E1 (500 ng) or saline. Prostaglandin E1 induced an increase in the firing rate of sympathetic nerves and the colonic and interscapular brown adipose tissue temperatures. These effects were reduced by the ventromedial hypothalamic lesion. Since ibotenic acid destroys cell bodies, the findings indicate that neurons of the ventromedial hypothalamus play a considerable role in the control of sympathetic activation and the thermogenic changes during prostaglandin E1 hyperthermia. 相似文献

This experiment evaluated the induction of RNA synthesis in neurons of various cerebral areas during hyperthermia induced by an intracerebroventricular injection of orexin A. The firing rates of the sympathetic nerves to interscapular brown adipose tissue, along with interscapular brown adipose tissue and colon temperatures, and heart rate were monitored in urethane-anesthetized male Sprague–Dawley rats before and after an injection of orexin A (1.5 nmol) into the lateral cerebral ventricle. Furthermore, the incorporation of 3H-uridine in total RNA and the expression of mRNA encoding the precursor of orexin A were measured in the cerebral areas at the 4th hour after the injection. The same variables were monitored in control rats with an injection of saline. The results show that orexin A increases the sympathetic firing rate, interscapular brown adipose tissue and colonic temperatures, heart rate, along with: (1) the incorporation of 3H-uridine in total RNA of the hypothalamus, hippocampus, cortex and cerebellum, (2) the expression of mRNA encoding the precursor of orexin A in the hypothalamus, cortex and cerebellum. These findings indicate that orexin A induces polyhedral gene expressions in several cerebral regions. Furthermore, we insist to suggest the name “hyperthermine A” as an additional denomination of “orexin A” by considering the strong influence of this neuropeptide on body temperature. 相似文献

To define the role of catecholamines (CA) in the metabolic adaptation to fasting we examined the effect of exogenous dopamine(DA) on heat production(HP) and CA content in the interscapular brown adipose tissue(IBAT) and adrenals of control-fed and 2-day fasted rats in the morning(M) and in the evening(E). DA stimulates HP in fed rats in the M by 45% but the thermogenic effect of this CA is markedly higher in the E. However, DA had no thermogenic effect in fasted rats. The tissue CA in fed rats fluctuates diurnally: in the IBAT noradrenaline(NA) was much higher in the E while adrenaline(A) in adrenals was lower. DA in fed rats did not change the adrenal A but reduced NA content both in the adrenals and in the IBAT all over the day. Fasting depleted A from adrenals but increased NA content both in the M and in the E. Unlike the adrenals in the IBAT fasting did not affect NA content. In the adrenal gland of fasted rats DA significantly increased the A content to the equal degree during the day, while this CA had no effect on NA content of the IBAT. 相似文献

Brown adipose tissue (BAT) thermogenic activity and growth are controlled by its sympathetic nervous system (SNS) innervation, but nerve fibers containing sensory-associated neuropeptides [substance P, calcitonin gene-related peptide (CGRP)] also suggest sensory innervation. The central nervous system (CNS) projections of BAT afferents are unknown. Therefore, we used the H129 strain of the herpes simplex virus-1 (HSV-1), an anterograde transneuronal viral tract tracer used to delineate sensory nerve circuits, to define these projections. HSV-1 was injected into interscapular BAT (IBAT) of Siberian hamsters and HSV-1 immunoreactivity (ir) was assessed 24, 48, 72, 96, and 114 h postinjection. The 96- and 114-h groups had the most HSV-1-ir neurons with marked infections in the hypothalamic paraventricular nucleus, periaqueductal gray, olivary areas, parabrachial nuclei, raphe nuclei, and reticular areas. These sites also are involved in sympathetic outflow to BAT suggesting possible BAT sensory-SNS thermogenesis feedback circuits. We tested the functional contribution of IBAT sensory innervation on thermogenic responses to an acute (24 h) cold exposure test by injecting the specific sensory nerve toxin capsaicin directly into IBAT pads and then measuring core (T(c)) and IBAT (T(IBAT)) temperature responses. CGRP content was significantly decreased in capsaicin-treated IBAT demonstrating successful sensory nerve destruction. T(IBAT) and T(c) were significantly decreased in capsaicin-treated hamsters compared with the saline controls at 2 h of cold exposure. Thus the central sensory circuits from IBAT have been delineated for the first time, and impairment of sensory feedback from BAT appears necessary for the appropriate, initial thermogenic response to acute cold exposure. 相似文献

In this review, we focus on the role of orexin signaling in blood pressure control and its potential link to hypertension by summarizing evidence from several experimental animal models of hypertension. Studies using the spontaneously hypertensive rat (SHR) animal model of human essential hypertension show that pharmacological blockade of orexin receptors reduces blood pressure in SHRs but not in Wistar–Kyoto rats. In addition, increased activity of the orexin system contributes to elevated blood pressure and sympathetic nerve activity (SNA) in dark-active period Schlager hypertensive (BPH/2J) mice, another genetic model of neurogenic hypertension. Similar to these two models, Sprague-Dawley rats with stress-induced hypertension display an overactive central orexin system. Furthermore, upregulation of the orexin receptor 1 increases firing of hypothalamic paraventricular nucleus neurons, augments SNA, and contributes to hypertension in the obese Zucker rat, an animal model of obesity-related hypertension. Finally, we propose a hypothesis for the implication of the orexin system in salt-sensitive hypertension. All of this evidence, coupled with the important role of elevated SNA in increasing blood pressure, strongly suggests that hyperactivity of the orexin system contributes to hypertension. 相似文献

Increased energy expenditure often occurs during illness or after injection of endotoxin and can contribute to the generation of fever. In laboratory rats and mice the thermogenic response has been attributed to the sympathetic activation of brown adipose tissue (BAT), although mice often fail to show pyrexia. In this study the effects of malaria on O2 consumption and BAT were studied in mice inoculated with Plasmodium berghei. Parasitemia was maximal (greater than 50% of erythrocytes showing positive Leishman staining) 72 h after inoculation. Up to this time body weight and food intake were similar to values for control mice, although colonic temperatures were slightly depressed in infected mice. Thereafter, infected mice showed marked hypophagia, loss of body weight, and severe hypothermia; colonic temperature was less than 31 degrees C at 96 h when the experiment was terminated. Resting O2 consumption (VO2) measured at 24 degrees C was slightly elevated in infected mice 12 h after inoculation and reached a peak value (31% above controls) at 48 h. VO2 returned to the same value as controls at 96 h. In vitro thermogenic activity of BAT (assessed from binding of guanosine diphosphate to isolated mitochondria) was not significantly altered in infected mice. These data demonstrate a marked thermogenic response to malarial infection, but this is not accompanied by fever in mice and is dissociated from stimulation of BAT activity. 相似文献

To clarify whether cigarette smoke stimulates the sympathetic nervous system (SNS) and thermogenesis in interscapular brown adipose tissue (IBAT), we measured norepinephrine (NE) turnover, an indicator of SNS activity, guanosine-5'-diphosphate (GDP) binding, a thermogenic indicator, and oxygen consumption in IBAT in monosodium-L-glutamate (MSG)-induced obese and saline control mice following a two-week exposure to cigarette smoke. Cigarette smoke significantly increased NE turnover, GDP binding and oxygen consumption in IBAT, and significantly reduced body weight in MSG obese mice as well as in control mice. However, food intake was unchanged in the MSG group. These results suggest that cigarette smoke stimulates NE turnover and thermogenesis in BAT, which contribute to the mitigation of obesity. 相似文献

Neurons in the dorsomedial hypothalamus (DMH) play key roles in physiological responses to exteroceptive ("emotional") stress in rats, including tachycardia. Tachycardia evoked from the DMH or seen in experimental stress in rats is blocked by microinjection of the GABA(A) receptor agonist muscimol into the rostral raphe pallidus (rRP), an important thermoregulatory site in the brain stem, where disinhibition elicits sympathetically mediated activation of brown adipose tissue (BAT) and cutaneous vasoconstriction in the tail. Disinhibition of neurons in the DMH also elevates core temperature in conscious rats and sympathetic activity to least significant difference interscapular BAT (IBAT) and IBAT temperature in anesthetized preparations. The latter effects are blocked by microinjection of muscimol into the rRP, while microinjection of muscimol into either the rRP or DMH suppresses increases in sympathetic nerve activity to IBAT, IBAT temperature, and core body temperature elicited either by microinjection of PGE(2) into the preoptic area (an experimental model for fever), or central administration of fentanyl. Neurons concentrated in the dorsal region of the DMH project directly to the rRP, a location corresponding to that of neurons trans-synaptically labeled from IBAT. Thus these neurons control nonshivering thermogenesis in rats, and their activation signals its recruitment in diverse experimental paradigms. Evidence also points to a role for neurons in the DMH in thermoregulatory cutaneous vasoconstriction, shivering, and endocrine adjustments. These directions provide intriguing avenues for future exploration that may expand our understanding of the DMH as an important hypothalamic site for the integration of autonomic, endocrine, and behavioral responses to diverse challenges. 相似文献

Removal of the midbrain tonic inhibitory mechanism on nonshivering thermogenesis (NST) results in increased temperatures of the interscapular brown adipose tissue (IBAT) and rectum (T(IBAT) and T(rec), respectively) via an enhanced central sympathetic output. Because it is unlikely that neurons (primary) of the midbrain inhibitory mechanism tonically inhibit the IBAT monosynaptically, there must be secondary or tertiary neurons posterior to the midbrain. Such neurons, therefore, may increase their activity during enhanced NST after removal of the midbrain tonic inhibition. The aim of the present experiments was to localize these secondary or tertiary neurons and establish descending neuronal pathway(s) that may project to the major NST effector IBAT. T(IBAT) and T(rec) increases induced by removal of the tonic inhibition by midbrain procaine microinjections were accompanied with appearance of c-Fos-positive neurons in the inferior olive (IO) and the intermediolateral (IML) cell column of the thoracic spinal cord. Electrical stimulation of and L-glutamate microinjections into the IO increased T(IBAT) and T(rec). Midbrain procaine-induced T(IBAT) and T(rec) increases were blocked by electrolytic IO lesions. These results suggest that central thermal signals produced from the lower midbrain are transmitted to IBAT through the IO and IML and that the IO has a role in the central sympathetic functions. 相似文献

Dopamine-beta-hydroxylase (DBH) (EC 1.14.17.1) activity is present in the interscapular brown adipose tissue (IBAT) as early as 2 days of age in the white rat. The specific and the total activities of this enzyme, as well as those of cytochrome oxidase (COX) (EC 1.9.3.1) in IBAT increase up to at least 20 days of age. Daily administration of 6-hydroxydopamine (6-OHDA) between the second and the twelfth day after birth does not significantly alter IBAT weight gain relative to untreated controls, but the increase in protein content with age is reduced to about half the normal value at the end of the treatment. The treatment with 6-OHDA also results in a drastic lowering of DBH specific and total activities, and a much smaller rate of increase of COX specific and total activities with age in IBAT compared with controls. These results provide additional evidence for a previously proposed role of sympathetic nervous system activity in the development of the thermogenic potential of IBAT in the newborn rat. 相似文献

Norepinephrine (NE)-induced increase in oxygen consumption (VO2) and colonic temperature (Tc) was greater in cold-acclimated rats housed at 4 degrees C for 4 weeks (CA) than warm-acclimated controls housed at 24 degrees C for 4 weeks (WA). On the other hand, shivering activity measured at 4 degrees C was less in CA than in WA, while propranolol administration eliminated the difference between these two groups by enhancing shivering in CA. Wet weight and protein content of interscapular brown adipose tissue (IBAT) were greater in CA than in WA. Following cold acclimation, CA were deacclimated at 24 degrees C for 5 weeks. During deacclimation, half of this latter group were forced to run (15 m.min-1 for 1 h) every day (CD-T) while the remaining rats remained sedentary (CD-S). Shivering activity assessed at 4 degrees C 4 weeks after commencing cold deacclimation was significantly less in CD-T than in CD-S and the difference disappeared following propranolol injection. VO2 and Tc responses to NE injection measured 1, 2 and 5 weeks after commencing cold deacclimation did not differ between CD-S and CD-T. Although IBAT weight was lighter in CD-T than in CD-S, its total protein content was not different between the latter two groups of rats. These results suggest that a greater degree of NE-independent nonshivering thermogenesis (NST) is retained in rats that are exercised during the process of deacclimation as compared with animals that are sedentary. This difference in NST would not seem to be directly related to BAT thermogenic capacity. 相似文献

Triiodothyronine deiodinating activity in brown adipose tissue after short cold stimulation test in trained and untrained rats 总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1

Interscapular brown adipose tissue (IBAT) activity is controlled by sympathetic nervous system, and factors that influence thermogenesis appear to be centrally connected to the sympathetic outflow to IBAT. Cold exposure produces a rise in BAT temperature, which is associated with an increased thyroid activity, elevated serum levels of 3,5,3'-triiodothyronine (T3), and an increased rate of T3 production. This study evaluated the effect of swimming training on 5'-triiodothyronine deiodinase (5'-D) activity in IBAT under normal environmental conditions and after short (30 min) cold exposure (TST stimulation test). 5'-D activity is lower in trained rats at basal condition, and TST increases 5'-D in IBAT of both untrained and trained rats. However, this increase is lower in trained rats. Training reduces the deiodinating activity in normal environmental conditions as well as after short cold exposure. Probably, other compensatory mechanisms of heat production are active in trained rodents. 相似文献

1. The influence of sucrose overfeeding on the sympatho-adrenal (SA) and metabolic responses was studied in sham-operated (SHAM) rats and in those with interscapular brown adipose tissue (IBAT) removed. 2. Sucrose feeding significantly increased the SA activity, mobilized the free fatty acids (FFA), but did not change glucose homeostasis in sham-operated rats. 3. IBAT removal in control rats fed a stock diet modified the SA activity whereas the levels of both blood glucose and serum FFA were unchanged. 4. However, sucrose in rats void of IBAT potentiated the activity of sympathetic nervous system only and prevented the FFA rise, which is seen in sham-operated sucrose fed rats indicating that the enhanced level of serum FFA in these animals principally originated from the IBAT. 相似文献
