    Notes: Abstract The pyrogenic response to supernatants from human blood monocytes stimulated with polyriboinosinic acid:polyribocytidylic acid (poly I:C) was characteristic of a response to endogenous pyrogen in that it was brief and monophasic, and was destroyed by heating the supernatants at 70°C for 30 min. Pyrogen production was unimpaired when the incubations were carried out in the presence of cycloheximide (50 μg/ml; an inhibitor of protein synthesis) or indomethacin (50 μg/ml; an inhibitor of prostaglandin synthesis). Also, neither interferon, interleukins, tumor necrosis factor nor prostaglandin E2 were detectable in the supernatants from the poly I:C-stimulated human monocytes.

    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 effects of stimulation or ablation of the paramedian reticular nucleus (PRN) of the rat medulla oblongata on the thermal responses induced by ambient temperature changes, a pyrogen, or a hypothermic substance were assessed. Electrical stimulation of the PRN elicited thermolytic reactions (including decreased metabolism, cutaneous vasodilation and hypothermia) which could be mimicked by micro-injection of kainic acid (an excitotoxic amino acid) into the same region. Bilateral electrolytic lesions in the PRN prevented the animals from responding to heat stress (35° C for 30 min) to some extent, but did not prevent responses to cold stress (4° C for 60 min). In addition, the thermogenic reactions induced by intrahypothalamic injection of polyriboinosinic acid: polyribocytidylic acid (a pyrogenic substance), or the thermolytic reactions induced by intraperitoneal administration of chlorpromazine (a tranquilizer), were antagonized respectively by activation or ablation of the PRN. This suggests that the PRN of the caudal medulla may function as a thermolytic area.

    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.

    Notes: Summary The effects of stimulating the pars compacta of the substantia nigra (SNC) on thermoregulation were assessed in normal rats, in rats with chemical lesion of the SNC dopamine (DA) pathways and in rats with striatal DA receptor blockade. Electrical stimulation of the SNC produced hypothermia, decreased metabolism and/or cutaneous vasoconstriction in rats at ambient temperatures (T a ) below 22°C, as well as hyperthermia and cutaneous vasoconstriction in rats at T a of 30°C. Microinjection of an excitotoxic amino acid (kainic acid) at the same brain sites also produced the same thermal responses. In vivo voltammetric studies revealed that electrical or chemical stimulation of the SNC produced an increase in striatal DA release. The enhanced striatal DA release induced by SNC stimulation was attenuated in rats after selective destruction of the nigrostriatal DA pathway by administration of 6-hydroxydopamine into the medial forebrain bundle. In addition, the magnitude of the thermal responses produced by the SNC stimulation in the cold was attenuated by selective bilateral destruction of the nigrostriatal DA pathways or selective blockade of the striatal DA produced by intrastriatal infusion of haloperidol, a DA receptor antagonist. The results indicate that stimulation of the SNC inhibits both heat production and heat loss mechanisms in the rat.

    Pyrogenicity of polyadenylic · polyuridylic acid in rabbits (1991)

    Notes: Summary Polyadenylic polyuridylic acid injected intraveneously into rabbits produced a rapid-onset, monophasic fever. Pyrogenic tolerance occurred in rabbits following daily injections of polyadenylic polyuridylic acid. However, direct injection of the agent into the preoptic anterior hypothalamic region of rabbit's brain produced a markedly different fever. After an intrahypothalamic injection of polyadenylic - polyuridylic acid, fever was delayed in onset and persisted for a longer period. At room temperature, the fever was due to both increased metabolism and cutaneous vasoconstriction. In a colder atmosphere the fever was due solely to increased metabolism, whereas in the heat the fever was due to reduction in cutaneous blood flow and respiratory evaporative heat loss. In addition, the fever induced by intravenous polyadenylic · polyuridylic acid injection was reversed by a cyclooxygenase inhibitor, but not by a protein synthesis inhibitor. Polyadenylic - polyuridylic acid was shown to stimulate PGE2 production from rabbit's hypothalamus in vitro. The results reveal that this agent is a prostaglandin-dependent pyrogen.

    Notes: Summary The possible involvement of spinal 5-hydroxytryptamine (5-HT) pathways in antinociception induced by microinjection of clonidine into the ventrolateral surface of the medulla oblongata was investigated in rats. Microinjection of clonidine (10-20 µg), but not yohimbine (1 µg) or 0.9% saline, into the lateral medulla prolonged the hot plate latency in rats. This clonidine-induced antinociception was abolished by intramedullary injection of the alpha2-adrenoceptor antagonist, yohimbine. Selective destruction of spinal 5-HT neurons produced by intraspinal injection of 5,7-dihydroxytryptamine (5,7-DHT; 10 µg) or postsynaptic blockade of spinal 5-HT receptors produced by intrathecal injection of cyproheptadine (1 µg; a mixed 5-HT1/5-HT2 antagonist) also abolished clonidine-induced antinociception. Rats given 5,7-DHT intraspinally or cyproheptadine intrathecally showed a decrease in hot plate latency as compared with the controls. In anesthetized rats, the 5-HT release from the thoracic spinal cord was enhanced by microinjection of clonidine into the lateral medulla. This enhanced spinal 5-HT release evoked by intramedullary injection of clonidine was abolished by pretreatment of rats with intraspinal injection of 5,7-DHT. These results indicate that 5-HT pathways to the spinal cord mediate the antinociceptive effect induced by microinjection of clonidine into the ventrolateral surface of the medulla oblongata in rats.

    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.

    Notes: Abstract During the onset of heat stroke, rabbits displayed hyperthermia (42.8°C), and decreased cerebral perfusion pressure and decreased cerebral blood flow (as reflected by a prolonged cerebral circulation time) compared to those of normothermic rabbits. On the other hand febrile rabbits, during the fever plateau did not show the above responses, although they had a similar level of hyperthermia (42.4°C). The data support the concept that cerebral ischemia is the main cause for the onset of the heat stroke syndrome.
