Abstract

The expression pattern of mRNA encoding two orexin receptors (OX 1 R and OX 2 R) in the rat brain was examined. OX 1 R and OX 2 R exhibited marked differential distribution. Within the hypothalamus, OX 1 R mRNA is most abundant in the ventromedial hypothalamic nucleus whereas OX 2 R is predominantly expressed in the paraventricular nucleus. High levels of OX 1 R mRNA were also detected in tenia tecta, the hippocampal formation, dorsal raphe, and locus coeruleus. OX 2 R mRNA is mainly expressed in cerebral cortex, nucleus accumbens, subthalamic and paraventricular thalamic nuclei, anterior pretectal nucleus. The presence of orexin receptor mRNA in the hypothalamus is in support of its proposed role in feeding regulation. Broad central distribution of orexin receptors may indicate additional functions for orexins.

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.
