Evidence That the Caudal Brainstem Is a Target for the Inhibitory Effect of Leptin on Food Intake
Abstract
Three experiments were performed to investigate the hypothesis that leptin action within the caudal brain stem (CBS) contributes to its intake inhibitory effects. The first experiment evaluated the anatomical distribution of leptin receptor mRNA in rat CBS using a sensitive fluorescence in situ hybridization method with a riboprobe specific for the long form of the leptin receptor (Ob-Rb). An Ob-Rb mRNA hybridization signal was detected in neurons of several CBS nuclei involved in the control of food intake, including the dorsal vagal complex and parabrachial nucleus. A strong hybridization signal was also obtained from neuronal cell bodies of a number of other structures including the hypoglossal, trigeminal, lateral reticular, and cochlear nuclei; locus ceruleus; and inferior olive. The anatomical profile revealed by fluorescence in situ hybridization was in good agreement with immunocytochemical analysis with an antibody specific to Ob-Rb. In a second experiment, exploring the relevance of CBS Ob-Rb to feeding behavior, rats were given a fourth intracerebroventricular (i.c.v.) injection of leptin (0.1, 0.83, or 5.0μ g; n = 9–11/group) or vehicle 30 min before lights-out on three consecutive days The two higher doses reduced food intake significantly at 2, 4, and 24 h after injection and caused significant reductions of body weight. The dose-response profiles for fourth i.c.v. administration were indistinguishable from those obtained from separate groups of rats that received leptin via a lateral i.c.v. cannula. In the last experiment, a ventricle-subthreshold dose of leptin (0.1 μg) microinjected unilaterally into the dorsal vagal complex suppressed food intake at 2, 4, and 24 h. The results indicate that the CBS contains neurons that are potentially direct targets for the action of leptin in the control of energy homeostasis.

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.
