Abstract:
:Catecholaminergic systems, specifically in the region of the lateral perifornical hypothalamus (PFH), have been linked to the inhibition of feeding behavior. The present studies examined the effects of d-amphetamine (AMPH), which is believed to act through the release of endogenous catecholamines (CAs), on spontaneous feeding and appetite regulation in rats. Injection of AMPH directly into the PFH caused a marked suppression of food intake; changes in computer-monitored meal patterns were characterized by an increase in the latency to meal onset and a consequent reduction in meal size and duration. This suggests that hypothalamic AMPH administration may influence primarily the initiation, rather than the termination, of feeding. In other experiments, chronic infusion of AMPH directly into the PFH was shown to suppress 24 hr food intake and body weight gain, indicating the effectiveness of lateral hypothalamic CA stimulation in overriding normal long-term patterns of feeding. The effect of hypothalamic CA stimulation on macronutrient selection was also investigated in groups of rats injected either centrally or peripherally with AMPH, or centrally with the CA agonists, dopamine and epinephrine. Each of these manipulations caused a strong inhibition of protein intake with no effect on carbohydrate, and only a mild suppression of fat ingestion after peripheral AMPH. These selective effects of AMPH on feeding patterns and diet choice, provide support for a role of CA innervation to the lateral hypothalamus in the modulation of natural feeding behavior and macronutrient selection.
