Changes in Feeding Behavior After Peripheral Loperamide Administration in Rats

Abstract: Changes in the parameters of operant feeding behavior and body weight were studied in rats after intragastric administration of μ-opioid receptor agonist loperamide. Loperamide administration significantly suppressed foraging behavior in rats and reduced their body weight. Our findings suggest that peripheral loperamide administration, according to the hypothesis of reciprocal interactions between the central and peripheral parts of the endogenous opioid system, suppresses activity of central opioid mechanisms… Show more

“…One day prior to training, animals were subjected to 24-h food deprivation. Deprivation was carried out to speed up the training process, as we showed earlier (Chumakova et al, 2011;Sudakov et al, 2015). Training was performed in the tool chamber equipped with feeder, lever, and light stimulus.…”

“…We proposed and substantiated a hypothesis on reciprocal interaction between the central and peripheral compartments of the endogenous opioid system [4] implying the involvement of the peripheral opioid system in the mechanisms of sensory satisfaction [2,6]. Vagal afferentation transmits information on activation of μ-opioid receptors (OR) into CNS, which is followed by suppression of the central endogenous opioid system.…”
