Glucose responding neurons in the nucleus tractus solitarius of the rat: In vitro study

Abstract

Glucose response of 162 neurons in the nucleus tractus solitarius (NTS) was examined in brainstem slices. When glucose was applied by addition to the bath medium or by electrophoresis, approximately 27% of the neurons responded; 20% were glucose-sensitive neurons which decreased in activity and 7% glucoreceptor neurons which increased in activity. Significantly more glucose-sensitive neurons were found in the caudal part than in the rostral part, while non-glucose responding neurons were distributed widely within the NTS. The populations of glucose-sensitive and glucoreceptor neurons were 11% and 5% in the rostral part, and 28% and 8% in the caudal part of the NTS. Intracellular horseradish peroxidase staining of NTS neurons revealed that glucose-sensitive neurons were medium-sized, fusiform or pyramidal cells with many more dendrites than non-responding small oval cells. Specific functional and morphological characteristics of these glucose responding neurons were clarified by this study.

About these checks

Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.

Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.

Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
