Hypothalamic monoaminergic activity in obese Zucker rats in response to acute and chronic dietary stimuli.

The American journal of physiology - 1 Apr 1996

Specter S E, Stern J S, Horwitz B A

Abstract excerpt

Monoamine neuromodulators link diet-related signals with autonomic responses in the regulation of energy balance. In view of evidence that sympathetically mediated expenditure is blunted in genetically obese (fa/fa) Zucker rats, a central defect in neurochemical activity has been proposed. This study tested the hypothesis that genotypic differences in monoaminergic activity in the hypothalamus underlie a blunted...
