Recent studies indicate that central administration of oxytocin (OT) reduces body weight (BW) in high fat diet-induced obese (DIO) rodents by reducing energy intake and increasing expenditure (EE). Previous our lab have shown OT into the fourth ventricle (4V; hindbrain) elicits loss stimulates interscapular brown adipose tissue temperature (TIBAT) DIO rats. We hypothesized OT-elicited stimulation sympathetic nervous system (SNS) activation IBAT contributes to its ability activate BAT reduce...
Rodent studies indicate that impaired glucose utilization or hypoglycemia is associated with the cellular activation of neurons in medulla (Winslow, 1733) (MY), believed to control feeding behavior and counterregulation. However, such has been tracked primarily within hours challenge, rather than sooner, poorly mapped standardized brain atlases. Here, we report that, 15 min receiving 2-deoxy-d-glucose (2-DG; 250 mg/kg, i.v.), which can trigger glucoprivic behavior, marked elevations were...

Abstract The rostral ventrolateral medulla (RVLM), a part of the medullary reticular formation, plays major role in several physiological responses, including cardiovascular and sympathetic nervous system functions. Although aging causes disturbances responses these systems, RVLM involvement age-related changes is not clear. Previous work using high-throughput gene expression analysis aged animals suggested that chemical neurotransmission-related genes might be downregulated with advancing...
