摘要
We have studied the effects of cocaine- and amphetamine-regulated transcript (CART) peptide-(55-102), leptin, orexin-A and orexin-B on basal and depolarization (K+ 15 mW)-induced serotonin (5-hydroxytryptamine, 5-HT) release from rat hypothalamic neuronal endings (synaptosomes) in vitro. We have found that leptin and CART peptide-(55-102) have no effect on 5-HT release, while orexin-A and orexin-B inhibit depolarization-stimulated serotonin release. We can conclude that leptin and CART peptide-(55-102), which play a physiological role as feeding inhibitors, do not acutely affect 5-HT release from hypothalamic synaptosomes; on the other hand, feeding induced by orexin-A and orexin-B could be partially explained by decreased 5-HT release.
