Dopamine Production in the Caudate Putamen Restores Feeding in Dopamine-Deficient Mice
Open accessAbstract
Dopamine-deficient (DD) mice cannot synthesize dopamine (DA) in dopaminergic neurons due to selective inactivation of the tyrosine hydroxylase gene in those neurons. These mice become hypoactive and hypophagic and die of starvation by 4 weeks of age. We used gene therapy to ascertain where DA replacement in the brain restores feeding and other behaviors in DD mice. Restoration of DA production within the caudate putamen restores feeding on regular chow and nest-building behavior, whereas restoration of DA production in the nucleus accumbens restores exploratory behavior. Replacement of DA to either region restores preference for sucrose or a palatable diet without fully rescuing coordination or initiation of movement. These data suggest that a fundamental difference exists between feeding for sustenance and the ability to prefer rewarding substances.

Restoration of DA into the NAc was not sufficient to rescue normal feeding behavior, possibly due to inability to anatomically restore gene expression throughout the entire NAc.
“However, restoration of DA into the NAc in these studies was not sufficient to rescue normal feeding behavior, but this may have been due to an inability to anatomically restore gene expression throughout the entire NAc [304].”

DA transduction in the central or lateral regions of the caudate putamen was sufficient to permanently rescue mice from starvation that would occur without daily L-DOPA injections.
“A salient result from these animal studies is that DA transduction in the central or lateral regions of the caudate putamen was sufficient to permanently rescue mice from the starvation that would occur inevitably without daily L-DOPA injections.”

Dopamine deficient mice still have the capacity to consume food or water if these are directly delivered to their mouths.
“However, these mice still have the capacity to consume food or water if these are directly delivered to their mouths (Szczypka et al., 1999; 2001).”

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.
