Intracerebroventricular CART peptide reduces rat ingestive behavior and alters licking microstructure.
Intracerebroventricular administration of cocaine- and amphetamine-regulated transcript (CART) peptides reduces food intake and increases c-Fos in brain areas involved in the control of feeding. To discern behavioral mechanisms through which CART alters the microstructure of feeding, we injected CART-(55--102) (0.1, 0.5, 1, 2 microg, and saline controls) into the lateral ventricle of male Sprag...
متن کاملIntracerebroventricular CART peptide reduces food intake and alters motor behavior at a hindbrain site.
Peptides from cocaine- and amphetamine-regulated transcript (CART) reduce food intake in rats when injected into the lateral ventricle. Hypothalamic and hindbrain sites important in the control of feeding contain CART-immunoreactive fibers. To further define the site of CART's anorectic action, we compared feeding and other behavioral responses to third or fourth ventricular (3V, 4V) CART-(55-1...
متن کاملDevelopment of ingestive behavior.
Swallowing represents a primary physiological function that provides for the ingestion of food and fluid. In precocial species, swallowing activity likely develops in utero to provide for a functional system during the neonatal period. The chronically instrumented ovine fetal preparation has provided the opportunity for recent advances in understanding the regulation of in utero swallowing acti...
متن کاملRFamide-related Peptide-3 and the Trade-off between Reproductive and Ingestive Behavior
Ingestive and sex behaviors are important for individual survival and reproductive success, but when environmental energy availability is limited, individuals of many different species make a trade-off, forfeiting sex for ingestive behavior. For example, food-deprived female Syrian hamsters (Mesocricetus auratus) forego vaginal scent marking and lordosis (sex behaviors) in favor of foraging, ho...
متن کاملHomocysteine intracerebroventricular injection induces apoptosis in the Substantia Nigra cells and Parkinson like behavior in rat
Parkinson's disease is a degenerative disorder of the central nervous system. The motor symptoms of Parkinson's disease result from the death of dopamine-generating cells in the substantia nigra, a region of the midbrain the cause of this cell death is unknown. Homocysteine (Hcy) is a non-protein amino acid. It is a homologue of the amino acid cysteine. The elevated levels of homocysteine in p...
