Reduced sodium appetite and increased oxytocin gene expression in mutant mice lacking beta-endorphin.

Neuroscience - 1 Jan 2003

Franchini L F, Rubinstein M, Vivas L

Abstract excerpt

Central opioid and oxytocinergic systems have been involved in the regulatory control of sodium appetite. In addition, previous studies support the existence of a functional interaction between opioid peptides and oxytocinergic pathways, and suggest that beta-endorphin neurons would modulate the activity of central oxytocinergic pathways, its pituitary secretion and sodium appetite. To investigate the role of...
