Two populations of cells within the hypothalamus exert opposite actions on food intake: proopiomelanocortin (POMC) neurons decrease it, while neuropeptide Y (NPY)/agouti-related peptide (AgRP) neurons increase it. 17β-Estradiol (E2) is a potent anorexigenic hormone that exerts both genomic and non-genomic, rapid actions on these metabolic neurons. This review focuses on the rapid membrane effects of E2 in both POMC and NPY/AgRP neurons and how these combined effects mediate the anorexigenic effects of this steroid.
促阿片黑素皮质素(POMC)神经元会减少食物摄入,而神经肽Y(NPY)/刺鼠相关肽(AgRP)神经元则会增加食物摄入。17β-雌二醇(E2)是一种强效的厌食激素,对这些代谢神经元具有基因组和非基因组的快速作用。本综述聚焦于E2在POMC和NPY/AgRP神经元中的快速膜效应,以及这些联合效应如何介导这种类固醇的厌食作用。
