Chronic intracerebroventricular neuropeptide-Y administration to normal rats mimics hormonal and metabolic changes of obesity

Zarjevski, N.·1993·Endocrinology

Abstract

Chronic intracerebroventricular (icv) administration of neuropeptide-Y (NPY; 10 micrograms/day) was performed in normal female rats to investigate its hormonal and metabolic consequences. Intracerebroventricular NPY produced hyperphagia, increased basal insulinemia, as well as liver and adipose tissue lipogenic activity. It also increased basal morning corticosteronemia. When NPY-induced hyperphagia was prevented by pair-feeding, the icv NPY treatment resulted in the same increases in basal insulinemia and corticosteronemia, and liver and white adipose tissue lipogenesis was still higher than that in respective controls. Under the ad libitum and pair-feeding conditions, icv NPY stimulated glucose uptake as well as total lipoprotein lipase activity in white adipose tissue; it resulted in an increase total activity of hepatic and white adipose tissue acetyl coenzyme-A-carboxylase. As all hormonal and metabolic changes elicited by icv NPY remained present (at the same or to a lesser extent depending upon the parameter considered) when hyperphagia was prevented by pair-feeding, it was, thus, shown that icv NPY per se induces peripheral hormonal and metabolic alterations via efferent routes, which remain to be determined. The effects of icv NPY reported in this study are similar to the defects observed in the early phase of genetic obesity in rodents, the hypothalamus of which has increased NPY levels. NPY could, thus, be of relevance in the occurrence of genetically induced obesity.

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.
