Abstract excerpt
Central monoaminergic neurotransmitters have been implicated in the control of food intake in different animal species but it remains unclear whether these same neurochemical systems effectively regulate feeding behaviour in the genetically obese (ob/ob) mouse. Neuropharmacological studies have demonstrated, for example, that microinjection of norepinephrine can elicit a reliable feeding response in the rat,...
