Whether or not peptide YY (PYY)-induced hyperphagia is modified by the histaminergic system in the brain is not yet known.
We investigated the effect on feeding of intracerebroventricular (ICV) administration of a specific histamine H3 receptor antagonist prior to ICV administration of PYY in rats.
PYY (1, 3, and 10 micrograms/10 microL) strongly induced feeding behavior in a dose-dependent manner in sated rats. The 4-hour food intake induced by 3 micrograms/10 microL of PYY was equal to that induced by a 16-hour fast. The ICV administration of thioperamide (40.8, 122.4, and 408.5 micrograms/10 microL) did not suppress the 4-hour food intake induced by 16-hour fasting; however, thioperamide produced dose-dependent and strong inhibition of hyperphagia induced by a 3-microgram dose of PYY.
These results suggest that the effect of PYY on appetite is different than that induced by fasting and may involve a histaminergic mechanism.
大脑中的组胺能系统是否会改变肽YY(PYY)诱导的摄食过多现象尚不清楚。
我们研究了在大鼠脑室内(ICV)注射PYY之前,预先脑室内注射一种特定的组胺H3受体拮抗剂对摄食的影响。
PYY(1、3和10微克/10微升)以剂量依赖的方式强烈诱导饱食大鼠的摄食行为。3微克/10微升的PYY诱导的4小时食物摄入量与16小时禁食诱导的摄入量相当。脑室内注射硫代哌啶(40.8、122.4和408.5微克/10微升)并未抑制16小时禁食诱导的4小时食物摄入量;然而,硫代哌啶对3微克剂量的PYY诱导的摄食过多产生了剂量依赖性的强烈抑制作用。
这些结果表明,PYY对食欲的影响与禁食诱导的不同,可能涉及组胺能机制。
