Inhibition of Mitochondrial Fission and iNOS in the Dorsal Vagal Complex Protects from Overeating and Weight Gain

Abstract: AbstractThe dorsal vagal complex (DVC) senses changes in insulin levels and controls glucose homeostasis, feeding behaviour and body weight. Three days of high-fat diet (HFD) in rats is sufficient to induce insulin resistance in the DVC and impair its ability to regulate feeding behaviour. HFD-feeding is associated with increased mitochondrial fission in the DVC and fission is regulated by dynamin-related protein 1 (Drp1). Higher Drp1 activity can inhibit insulin signalling, al… Show more

“…DVC is a highly permeable region in the brainstem which contains a circumventricular organ termed the area postrema as well as the nucleus of the solitary tract and the dorsal motor nucleus of the vagus. DVC relays signals from the gut and midbrain to facilitate energy and nutrient homeostasis (Blouet et al, 2009;Grill and Hayes, 2012;Waise et al, 2018;Wang et al, 2008; but also senses insulin (Filippi et al, 2012(Filippi et al, , 2014Patel et al, 2021;), glucagon (LaPierre et al, 2015, leptin (Hayes et al, 2010;Kanoski et al, 2012), and GLP-1 (Alhadeff et al, 2017;Hayes et al, 2008Hayes et al, , 2009 to regulate metabolism. DVC senses amino acid to lower food intake (Blouet and Schwartz, 2012), while DVC glucoprivation activates counter-regulation and increases food intake as well (Andrew et al, 2007;Ritter et al, 2000).…”

“…42 Interestingly, mitochondrial fission in DVC astrocytes was reported as one of the mechanisms mediating high fat diet (HFD)-dependent insulin resistance, hyperphagia, weight gain and fat deposition. 46 In addition, studies carried out on rats have highlighted that that DVC astrocytes partly mediate the anorectic effects of leptin and pharmacological glucagonlike peptide-1 receptor ligands. 47,48 Overall, these findings suggest that NTS astrocytes are involved in the integration of peripheral satiety signals to control feeding behaviour.…”
