Neuropeptide regulation of feeding in dogs

Abstract: Norepinephrine and four families of neuropeptides, namely, neuropeptide Y (NPY), opioid peptides, galanin, and growth hormone-releasing factor (GRH), have been shown to stimulate feeding after central administration. Because these studies were mainly done on laboratory rats, the present study was designed to ascertain the central stimulators of feeding in dogs. We have shown that porcine and human pancreatic polypeptides (PPs), when administered into the third cerebral ventricle (intracerebroventricularly), in… Show more

“…In the dog, feeding was stimulated by PP, not by NPY or PYY (Inui et al, 1991). The single exception is a study with male baboons that was unable to demonstrate any e ect of central NPY administration on food intake (Sipols et al, 1996).…”

“…NPY is considered to be one of the most potent orexigenic substances known (8), and intracerebroventricular injection of PP stimulates feeding in rats, mice, and dogs (9)(10)(11)(12). Anorectic patients have high levels of circulating PP (13,14), whereas obese persons have decreased PP concentrations (15) and have lower PP release in response to meals than lean persons (16).…”

“…This suggests species differences in the feeding response to CRF, as demonstrated for other peptides such as CCK (Della-Fera & Baile 1979, Morley et al 1985, Inui et al 1993) and neuropeptide Y (Inui et al 1991, Sipols et al 1996, and activation of the parasympathetic nervous system in this species.…”
