摘要
The arcuate nucleus (ARC) mediates the anorexic effects of leptin and expresses the long form (Ob-Rb) of the leptin receptor. To determine whether ARC leptin binding increases when plasma leptin levels are low during fasting, [I-125]-leptin specific binding to rat brain slices was measured by quantitative autoradiography. [I-125]-leptin specific binding was dense in the ARC and increased 2-fold after a 48-h fast (P < 0.001). These findings suggest that leptin receptor binding in the ARC is upregulated during fasting and that fasting changes the sensitivity of the ARC to leptin. (C) 1999 Elsevier Science B.V.
