Interactions between leptin and the human sympathetic nervous system.
Results from animal experimentation suggest a 2-way interaction between leptin and the sympathetic nervous system, with leptin causing sympathetic activation and conversely, with the sympathetic system exercising regulatory feedback inhibition over leptin release. We have now tested this hypothesis in humans. In the absence of results from leptin infusions, to test for sympathetic stimulation o...
متن کاملLeptin Regulates Bone Formation via the Sympathetic Nervous System
We previously showed that leptin inhibits bone formation by an undefined mechanism. Here, we show that hypothalamic leptin-dependent antiosteogenic and anorexigenic networks differ, and that the peripheral mediators of leptin antiosteogenic function appear to be neuronal. Neuropeptides mediating leptin anorexigenic function do not affect bone formation. Leptin deficiency results in low sympathe...
متن کاملCentral cholinergic stimulation affects ocular functions through sympathetic pathways.
Intracerebroventricular (ICV) injection of carbachol into the third ventricle of conscious rabbits increased pupil size and intraocular pressure (IOP). A significant increase of pupil size by 0.6-1.3 mm for 60-90 min was observed with the dose of 1 microgram and an increase of IOP by 1.1-1.9 mmHg for 15-60 min was observed with doses over 10 ng. These responses were due to central cholinergic s...
متن کاملSympathetic nervous system neuroplasticity.
In human and experimental models of heart failure there is widespread change in the sympathetic nervous system. This involves preferential activation of the sympathetic nervous outflow to the heart, impairment of norepinephrine reuptake by sympathetic nerves, and reduction of the content of norepinephrine in the failing myocardium, attributable in part to sympathetic neuronal rarefaction.1–4 Mi...
متن کاملCentral administration of leptin inhibits food intake and activates the sympathetic nervous system in rhesus macaques.
The present study was performed to determine the effects of central administration of leptin on food intake and sympathetic nervous system activity in a nonrodent species, the rhesus monkey. Peripheral administration of leptin at doses (1 and 3 microg/kg, s.c.) that produced increments of circulating leptin concentrations within a physiological range did not inhibit food intake over the subsequ...
