Sensitization of ingestive responding in preweanling rats: time course and specificity.

abstract：:Galanin is a 29-amino-acid neuropeptide that is overexpressed in Alzheimer's disease (AD) and impairs performance on rodent learning and memory tasks. M40, a peptidergic galanin receptor ligand, blocks galanin-induced impairments on delayed non-matching-to-position (DNMTP). The present experiments used the 192IgG-sapo...

These functions are both mediated by the hippocampus, a brain structure that animal studies have shown to be impaired after maintenance on high fat and refined sugar (HFS) diets. Study 1, using ...
