Sham feeding corn oil increases accumbens dopamine in the rat
Abstract
Both real and sham feeding of sucrose increase dopamine (DA) overflow in the nucleus accumbens (NAc). Fat is another constituent of foods that is inherently preferred by humans and rodents. We examined the affect of sham feeding corn oil in rats that were food and water deprived overnight. Rats were implanted with guide cannulas aimed at the NAc, as well as gastric fistulas. On alternate days, they were trained to sham lick 100% corn oil or distilled water (dH 2 O) for 20 min in the morning. Twenty-minute microdialysis samples were taken before, during, and after sham licking. DA and monoamines were analyzed by reverse-phase HPLC with coulometric detection. The results show that DA release in the NAc was significantly increased during sham licking of corn oil compared with the prior baseline (157.5 ± 18.8%, n = 12). During sham licking of dH 2 O, DA release in the NAc was not changed (93.0 ± 4.0%, n = 15). This experiment demonstrates that sham feeding of corn oil releases accumbens DA in a manner similar to ingestion of sucrose. Although both stimuli may have an olfactory component, sucrose is a gustatory, and 100% corn oil appears to be a trigeminal stimulus. Thus these data support the hypothesis that different sensory modalities produce reward using the same or closely related substrates in the forebrain.

“For nonsweet palatable foods (typically high-fat foods), there is less convincing evidence for development of dependence ([21](#B21), [31](#B31)), although intermittent access to corn oil can stimulate dopamine release in the nucleus accumbens ([106](#B106)).”

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.
