Intracerebroventricular Neuropeptide Y Acutely Influences Glucose Metabolism and Insulin Sensitivity in the Rat

Marks, Jonathan L., Waite, Kay·1997·Journal of Neuroendocrinology

Abstract

Acute administration of neuropeptide Y(NPY) into the hypothalamus and third cerebral ventricle (ICV) increases respiratory quotient, reduces energy expenditure and increases circulating, insulin, glucagon and corticosterone. Therefore, it is likely that hypothalamic NPY has acute effects on the metabolism of fuels, such as glucose. To test this hypothesis, we determined if ICV infusion of NPY influences glucose metabolism and its sensitivity to insulin in conscious, unrestrained rats, not given access to food. Glucose turnover was 4.7±0.3 mg/min, 45–55 min after ICV NPY was administered at 3 μg/h vs 3.7±0.2 (P<0.05) for ICV saline. In a time course study, glucose turnover was significantly increased 30 min, and remained elevated at 50 min after starting a similar ICV NPY infusion. In neither study was plasma glucose, insulin, glucagon or corticosterone significantly affected by ICV NPY. During an hyperinsulinaemic euglycaemic clamp, the glucose infusion rate corrected for body weight and insulin concentration, M/I was 0.22±0.03 for NPY vs 0.36±0.05 mg min−1 kg−1 μU−1 ml (P<0.05) for saline. NPY treatment prevented the decline in glucose production rate but did not influence the rise in glucose disposal rate resulting from hyperinsulinaemia. It was concluded that ICV NPY rapidly stimulates glucose turnover by a mechanism that does not depend on changes in insulin, glucagon or corticosterone secretion. Furthermore, ICV NPY decreased insulin sensitivity by reducing the effect of insulin on glucose production but not on whole body glucose disposal.

Each is checked against this paper’s own text: does it say what the citing paper says it does?

  • Central administration of NPY and the melanocortin-3/4 receptor antagonist SHU9119 causes insulin resistance and glucose intolerance via mechanisms independent of food intake.

    “Central administration of both NPY and the melanocortin-3/4 receptor antagonist, SHU9119, cause insulin resistance and glucose intolerance via mechanisms independent of their effects on food intake (1, 109, 188).”

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.
