Comparison of c-fos-like immunoreactivity in the brainstem following intraoral and intragastric infusions of chemical solutions in rats.

Abstract:

:To examine whether the activation of brainstem neurons during ingestion is due to orosensory afferents or post-ingestive factors, neuronal activation in response to intraoral and intragastric infusions of taste stimuli was compared in the area postrema (AP), nucleus tractus solitarius (NTS) and parabrachial nucleus (PBN) by the c-fos immunohistochemical method. An aliquot (7.5 ml) of 0.5 M sucrose, 5 mM sodium saccharin, 1 mM quinine hydrochloride and distilled water was delivered into the oral cavity or the stomach in each rat, which had been deprived of water and food overnight. Water induced little c-Fos-like immunoreactivity (c-FLI), but both intraoral and intragastric infusions of sucrose, but not non-caloric saccharin, induced strong c-FLI in the AP, caudal NTS and the external lateral subnucleus of the rostral PBN, suggesting that these areas receive general visceral inputs. Other areas in the NTS and PBN may receive gustatory inputs since more dominant c-FLI was detected by intraoral rather than intragastric infusions of the stimuli. Functional segregation of neurons reflecting qualitative and hedonic aspects of sweeteners (sucrose and saccharin) and bitter-tasting substance (quinine) was suggested in the PBN, but less evident in the NTS. These results indicate that c-fos induction in brainstem neurons during ingestion reflects gustatory inputs and postingestional factors depending on the kind of food ingested.
