    Notes: Abstract The glucoregulatory role of spinally projecting serotonin (5-HT) neurones near the ventrolateral surface of the medulla oblongata was investigated by stimulating these nerve cells in normal rats and in rats with selective chemical ablation of 5-HT nerves in the spinal cord. Electrical stimulation of the lateral medulla produced hyperglycaemia in normal rats; the increase in blood glucose was proportional to the intensity and frequency of stimulation. Furthermore, microinjection of kainic acid or L-glutamate at the same sites also produced hyperglycaemia. This stimulation-induced hyperglycaemia was significantly reduced by spinal transection or adrenalectomy. Selective destruction of spinal 5-HT nerves produced by intraspinal injection of 5,7-dihydroxytryptamine also reduced the magnitude of the hyperglycaemia response to electrical stimulation of the lateral medulla. This indicates that stimulation of 5-HT nerve cells adjacent to the ventrolateral surface of the medulla oblongata and projecting to the spinal cord increases the adrenal-sympathetic efferent activity and leads to hyperglycaemia in rats.

    Notes: Abstract The role played by dorsal or median raphe nuclei in glucoregulation was investigated by stimulating these nuclei in normal rats and in rats with chemical ablation of the hydroxytryptamine (5-HT) nerve cells in these nuclei. Electrical stimulation of either dorsal or median raphe nuclei increased blood glucose or the in vivo voltammetric signal of hypothalamic 5-OH-indole in normal rats; the increase in blood glucose level or the hypothalamic 5-OH-indole release was proportional to the intensity of stimulation. Microinjection of kainic acid or l-glutamate at the same sites also produced hyperglycemia or stimulated the hypothalamic 5-OH-indole release. This stimulation-induced hyperglycemia was significantly reduced by pretreatment of animals with spinal transection or adrenalectomy. In addition, selective destruction of the hypothalamic 5-HT nerve fibers, produced by administration of 5,7-di-hydroxytryptamine (a 5-HT nerve depletor) into both dorsal and median raphe regions, reduced the magnitude of the hyperglycemic responses to electrical stimulation of either dorsal or median raphe nuclei. The data indicate that stimulation of ascending 5-HT pathways in the rat's brain increases the adrenal-sympathetic efferent activity and leads to hyperglycemia.

    Effects of cholecystokinin octapeptide on thermoregulatory responses and hypothalamic neuronal activity in the rat (1985)

    Notes: Summary 1. Rats were chronically implanted with a hypothalamic cannula to allow chemical stimulation of the hypothalamus on the conscious animals in repeated experiments. Direct administration of cholecystokinin octapeptide (CCK-8) (20–60 ng) into the preoptic anterior hypothalamic area caused a dose-related fall in rectal temperature at ambient temperatures of 8° C and 22° C. 2. The hypothermia induced by CCK-8 was produced by a decrease in metabolism at an ambient temperature of 8° C, whereas at 22° C, it was caused by both a decrease in metabolism and an increase in cutaneous temperature. 3. However, at an ambient temperature of 30° C, intrahypothalamic administration of CCK-8 caused an insignificant change in thermoregulatory responses. Furthermore, neither intrahypothalamic injection of 0.9% saline nor intraperitoneal injection of CCK-8 (60 ng) had any effect on thermoregulatory responses at the ambient temperatures of 8°–30° C studied. 4. Under urethane anaesthesia, 59 single neurons in the preoptic anterior hypothalamic area were examined in 29 rats. Each animal was subjected to scrotal warming or cooling and to the administration of CCK-8. Microiontophoretic application of CCK-8 resulted in inhibition of the majority (75%) of cold-responsive neurons as well as excitation of the majority (77.8%) of warm-responsive neurons recorded in the preoptic anterior hypothalamic area. However, the majority (69%) of thermally unresponsive cells were not affected by CCK-8 application. 5. The data indicate that CCK-8, when administered intrahypothalamically, excites warm-responsive neurons and inhibits cold-responsive neurons within the preoptic anterior hypothalamic area to induce hypothermia by promoting an increase in heat loss and a decrease in heat production.

    Effects of hypothalamic noradrenaline depletion with 6-hydroxydopamine on the body temperature regulation of the rat (1984)

    Notes: Summary 1. Rats which had been pretreated with 3 intrahypothalamic doses of 10 μg of 6-hydroxydopamine (6-OHDA) to cause a selective depletion of hypothalamic noradrenaline to 26.7% of control hypothalamic noradrenaline maintained rectal temperature within the normal limits displayed by the control group. However, noradrenalinedepleted rats displayed a decrease in both cutaneous temperature and metabolic heat production in the cold (8°C). 2. Intrahypothalamic injections of 6-OHDA in normal rats at room temperature (22°C) caused an acute hyperthermia of up to 1.1°C which lasted for about 6 h. The acute hyperthermia in response to 6-OHDA was due to both cutaneous vasoconstriction and increased metabolism in the rat. Selective depletion of hypothalamic noradrenaline without affecting hypothalamic dopamine by prior treatment with 6-OHDA markedly reduced the hyperthermic responses to a subsequent dose of 6-OHDA. Therefore, the acute hyperthermic responses to 6-OHDA may be related to a release of noradrenaline in the hypothalamus. 3. The data indicate that activation of noradrenergic pathways in the hypothalamus facilities heat production and inhibits heat loss mechanisms in the rat.

    Clonidine-induced hypothermia: Possible involvement of cholinergic and serotonergic mechanisms (1984)

    Notes: Summary 1. The thermoregulatory effects (including metabolic, vasomotor and respiratory activities) produced by an injection of clonidine (1–3 μg in 0.5 μl) into the preoptic anterior hypothalamus were assessed in conscious rats at ambient temperatures (T a) of 8, 22 and 30°C. 2. Intrahypothalamic administration of clonidine caused a dose-dependent fall in rectal temperature at T a 8°C and 22°C. The hypothermia in response to clonidine was due to decreased metabolic heat production and/or cutaneous vasodilation. There was no change in respiratory evaporative heat loss. 3. The clonidine-induced hypothermic response was attenuated by pretreatment of the rats with either 5,7-dihydroxytryptamine (10 μg, administered intrahypothalamicly, 14 days before clonidine injection), yohimbine (0.2 μg, administered intrahypothalamicly, 10 min before clonidine injection), cyproheptadine (1 μg, administered intrahypothalamicly, 10 min before clonidine injection), or atropine (0.1 μg, administered intrahypothalamicly, 10 min before clonidine injection). 4. The data indicate that clonidine may act on α-adrenoceptors located on a serotonin-acetylcholine pathway within the preoptic anterior hypothalamus to induce hypothermia by promoting a reduction in metabolic heat production and/or an enhancement in dry heat loss in rats.

    Insulin acts on the hypothalamic glucose-facilitated neurons to induce hyperglycemia and hyperinsulinemia in the rat (1991)

    Notes: Abstract Microinjection of insulin (0.04–0.12 IU/μl) into the anterior hypothalamus or the lateral hypothalamus, but not the vertromedial hypothalamus of the rat brain, caused a dose-dependent rise in blood glucose and in serum insulin. The majority (71.5%) of the glucose-facilitated neurons recorded in the lateral hypothalamic area were excited by intracerebral injection of insulin. The data indicate that insulni acts on the hypothalamic glucose-facilitated neurons to induce hyperglycemia and hyperinsulinemia. It is unknown whether insulin normally reaches the hypothalamic area, or how it might do so.
