Oxyntomodulin (OXM) is a peptide released from the gut and attenuates food intake by acting on hypothalamus. However, its role at the molecular level is not well studied. In the first section of this study, we analysed the effect of OXM on food intake behaviour after injecting into the lateral ventricle of chickens. The outcome showed that food intake decreased significantly after administering 4 nmol of OXM. In the second part, the expression of glucagon‐like peptide 1 receptor (GLP‐1R) in the brainstem was analysed by real‐time RT‐PCR. The results showed that expression of GLP‐1R was reduced to 27% and 16% at 30 and 90 mins after injection of OXM respectively. In saline‐injected chickens, no reduction in GLP‐1R was seen. It can be concluded that OXM has a down regulatory effect on the responding receptor, GLP‐1R and OXM in chicks has the same reductive effect on food intake as in the mammals.  相似文献

Glucagon‐related peptides, such as glucagon‐like peptide (GLP)‐1, GLP‐2 and oxyntomodulin (OXM), are processed from an identical precursor proglucagon. In mammals, all of these peptides are suggested to be involved in the central regulation of food intake. We previously showed that intracerebroventricular administration of chicken OXM and GLP‐1 significantly suppressed food intake in chicks. Here, we show that central administration of chicken GLP‐2 potently suppresses food intake in chicks. Male 8‐day‐old chicks (Gallus gallus domesticus) were used in all experiments. Intracerebroventricular administration of chicken GLP‐2 significantly suppressed food intake in chicks. Plasma glucose concentration was significantly decreased by chicken GLP‐2, whereas plasma nonesterified fatty acid concentration was significantly increased. Intracerebroventricular administration of chicken GLP‐2 did not affect plasma corticosterone concentration. In addition, the anorexigenic effect of GLP‐2 was not reversed by the corticotropin‐releasing factor (CRF) receptor antagonist α‐helical CRF, suggesting that CRF is not a downstream mediator of the anorexigenic pathway of GLP‐2 in chicks. Intracerebroventricular administration of an equimolar amount of GLP‐1 and GLP‐2, but not OXM, significantly suppressed food intake in both broiler and layer chicks. All our findings suggest that GLP‐2 functions as a potent anorexigenic peptide in the brain, as well as GLP‐1, in chicks.  相似文献

Behavioral regulators in the brain of neonatal chicks   总被引：1，自引：0，他引：1  
Domestic chickens are precocial and therefore have relatively well‐developed processes at hatch. As a result, neonatal chicks grow well at hatch with no parental care. The regulation of food intake in animals, including domestic birds, is complicated. Just after hatching, neonatal chicks find their food by themselves and they can control their food intake. Recently, prolactin releasing peptide and gonadotropin‐inhibitory hormone were confirmed as central orexigenic factors in the neonatal chick. Both peptides have a common structure as RFamide peptides. On the other hand, vasoactive intestinal peptide and pituitary adenylate cyclase‐activating polypeptide, both belonging to the glucagon superfamily, were recognized as inhibitory. Broiler chicks have either a greater capability to acclimatize to novel environments, or a blunted hypothalamus‐pituitary‐adrenal axis compared with layer chicks. These differences are explained by higher melatonin concentrations in the pineal gland and other parts of the brain of broiler chicks since melatonin attenuates the stress response. Stressful behavior in chicks can be attenuated by neurotransmitters or by nutrients such as creatine, phosphatidylserine, L‐serine and (‐)‐epigallocatechin gallate. It is suggested that the regulation of behavior is somewhat specific and can be attenuated by some manipulation in neonatal chicks.  相似文献

The effects of the 5‐HT1A receptor agonist 8‐OH‐DPAT on food and water intake in male broiler chickens were investigated. The injection of 25 or 50 μg/kg of 8‐OH‐DPAT 15 min before refeeding in fasted animals produced a decrease in food intake. No effect was observed in drinking. The injection of 25 or 50 μg/kg of the 8‐OH‐DPAT 60 min after the start of refeeding did not produce any significant modification in food intake. No effect on drinking was recorded. The agonist 8‐OH‐DPAT injected 15 min before water presentation in water‐deprived chickens, produced an increased drinking 60 min after the presentation of water. No effect on food intake was observed. The results show that the effect on food intake of the agonist 8‐OH‐DPAT in fasted–refed broiler chickens was similar to those observed in mammals and layer‐strain chickens. However, the agonist did not alter significantly the food intake when the broilers were fed 60 min before the injection. These results are contrary to the observed effects in mammals and in layer‐strain chickens. Probably, the selection for rapid growth rate in broilers causes modifications in the feeding control pattern. The comparison between broilers and layers strain may be a useful tool to elucidate the complex mechanisms involved in food and water intake regulation in chickens.  相似文献

Oxyntomodulin (OXM), glucagon, and glucagon-like peptide-1 (GLP-1), peptide hormones derived from the glucagon gene, play an important role in glucose homeostasis. The insulinotropic action of these three homologous peptides has been well documented in monogastric animals. However, information on the relationships among these peptides in insulin-releasing action, specifically in ruminants, is still insufficient. In this regard, we carried out two experiments in cattle. In experiment 1, effects of glucagon and GLP-1 on plasma insulin and glucose were investigated in 10-mo-old Holstein steers (347 ± 8 kg, n = 8) under normoglycemic conditions. Peptides were administered intravenously at dose rates of 0.12, 0.25, 0.50, and 1.25 nmol/kg body weight (BW). In experiment 2, the relationships among OXM, glucagon, and GLP-1 in the insulinotropic and glucoregulatory actions were elucidated in 3-mo-old Holstein steers (94 ± 2 kg, n = 8) using agonist-antagonist strategy. In agonist strategy, these three peptides were administered alone or coadministered at dose rates of 10 μg of OXM/kg BW, 4 μg of glucagon/kg BW, and 2 μg of GLP-1/kg BW. In antagonist strategy, 2 μg of each peptide was administered alone or in combination with 10 μg of [des His1, des Phe6, Glu9] glucagon amide (a glucagon receptor antagonist) or exendin-4 (5-39) amide (a GLP-1 receptor antagonist). Our results showed that OXM, glucagon, and GLP-1 had insulinotropic actions in ruminants under normoglycemic conditions. Our results also showed that the insulin-releasing effects of OXM and glucagon were mediated through both GLP-1 receptors (GLP-1R) and glucagon receptors. These insulinotropic effects of OXM and glucagon through GLP-1R were inhibited by GLP-1. Our findings expand the relationships among OXM, glucagon, and GLP-1 in the insulinotropic and glucoregulatory actions.  相似文献

Central regulation of food intake in the neonatal chick   总被引：3，自引：0，他引：3  
Regulating food intake is complicated in animals including domestic birds. Just after hatching, neonatal chicks find their food by themselves and they can control food intake, since domestic chicken belongs to the precocial type of avian species. Thus, domestic chickens have relatively well-developed mechanisms of food-intake control at hatching. While many aspects of food-intake regulation in chickens appear similar to that in mammals, there are some responses that are unique to chickens. For instance, some neurotransmitters such as neuropeptide Y (NPY), orexin-A, orexin-B, motilin, melanin-concentrating hormone (MCH), galanin, growth hormone releasing factor (GRF) and ghrelin stimulate feeding in mammals. Only NPY strongly stimulates food intake in birds similar to that observed in mammals; however, both orexins, motilin, MCH and galanin failed to alter food intake of the chick. Moreover, GRF and ghrelin suppressed feeding of chicks. On the other hand, cholecystokinin (CCK), gastrin, glucagon-like peptide-1 (GLP-1), corticotropin-releasing factor (CRF), histamine, α-melanocyte stimulating hormone (α-MSH), leptin and bombesin are known to suppress feeding in mammals. These responses are similar to those of mammals except for leptin. Therefore, the inhibitory mechanisms for feeding are well conserved in chicks.  相似文献

The influence of restricted feeding on the distribution of glucagon‐like peptide‐1 (GLP‐1)‐containing endocrine cells in the chicken small intestine was investigated using immunohistochemical and morphometrical techniques. This study demonstrated that the restricted feeding had an influence on the activity of GLP‐1‐immunoreactive cells in the chicken small intestine. There were differences in the localization and the frequency of occurrence of GLP‐1‐immunoreactive cells in the small intestine between control and restricted groups, especially 25% feed supply group provided with 25% of the intake during the adapting period. GLP‐1‐immunoreactive cells in the control chickens were mainly located in epithelium from crypts to the lower part of intestinal villi. Those in restricted groups, however, tended to be located from crypts to the middle part of intestinal villi. The frequency of occurrence of GLP‐1‐immunoreactive cells was lowest in the control group, medium in 50% feed supply group and highest in 25% feed supply group at each intestinal region examined in this study, that is, increased with the advancement of restricting the amount of feed supply. These data show that the quantity of food intake is one of signals that have an influence on the secretion of GLP‐1 from L cells in the chicken small intestine.  相似文献

Oxyntomodulin (OXM), glucagon, glucagon-like peptide-1 (GLP-1), and exendin-4 (Ex-4) are peptide hormones that regulate glucose homeostasis in monogastric and ruminant animals. Recently, we reported that the insulin-releasing effects of OXM and glucagon in cattle are mediated through both GLP-1 and glucagon receptors. The purpose of this study was to examine the mechanisms of the glucoregulatory actions induced by Ex-4, GLP-1, OXM, and glucagon and the interrelationships among these hormones in cattle. Two experiments were performed in Holstein cattle. In Experiment 1, we initially assessed the effects of intravenous (iv) bolus injection of 0, 0.25, 1, and 2 μg/kg body weight (BW) of Ex-4, GLP-1, and OXM on insulin and glucose concentrations in 3-mo-old intact male Holstein calves. In Experiment 2, we studied insulin and glucose responses to iv coinjection of 0.25 μg of Ex-4 or GLP-1/kg BW with 2 μg of OXM or glucagon/kg BW in 4-mo-old Holstein steers. Administration of peptides and blood sampling were done via a jugular catheter. Plasma was separated and the concentrations of peptides and glucose in plasma were analyzed using radioimmunoassay and enzymatic methods, respectively. Results showed that the potent glucoregulatory action of Ex-4 in 4-mo-old steers was delayed and attenuated when Ex-4 was coinjected with OXM. The decline in plasma glucose concentrations began at 5 min in the Ex-4-injected group (P < 0.05) vs 15 min in the Ex-4 + OXM–injected group (P < 0.05). Plasma concentrations of glucose at 30 min were reduced 26% from basal concentrations in the Ex-4-injected group and 13% in the Ex-4 + OXM–injected group (P < 0.001). Results also showed that the glucose concentrations initially increased in the Ex-4 + glucagon–treated group, but declined to a relatively hypoglycemic condition by 90 to 120 min. In contrast, the glucose concentrations at specific time points between the GLP-1 + OXM–injected group and the OXM-injected group did not differ. Similarly, the glucose concentrations in the GLP-1 + glucagon–injected group did not differ from those in the glucagon-injected group. Because OXM and glucagon mediate glucose concentrations via the glucagon receptor, it is suggested that the potent glucose-lowering action of Ex-4 might include the glucagon receptor antagonistic action of Ex-4.  相似文献

Ghrelin, neuropeptide Y (NPY) and cholecystokinin (CCK) all have important roles in the regulation of feeding in fish and mammals. To better understand the role of the three peptides in appetite regulation in the early developmental stages of blunt snout bream (Megalobrama amblycephala), partial cDNA sequences of ghrelin, NPY and CCK genes were cloned. And then, real‐time quantitative PCR and RT‐PCR were used to detect and quantify the mRNA expressions of these genes from zygotes to larvae of 50 days after hatching (DAH). Ghrelin, NPY and CCK were all expressed throughout the embryonic and larval development stages, and the expression levels were higher in larval stages than in embryonic stages. Ghrelin and NPY mRNA expressions were upregulated at 1, 3, 5 DAH, while CCK mRNA expression was reduced significantly at 3 DAH. The mRNA expression levels of three genes in larvae varied significantly until 30 DAH. In adult fish, all three peptides were detected to be expressed in brain and several peripheral tissues. Ghrelin mRNA was mainly expressed in the intestine, whereas NPY and CCK mRNAs were mainly expressed in the brain. Taken together, these results indicate that ghrelin, NPY and CCK may have roles in early development and participate in the regulation of feeding of larvae in blunt snout bream and will be helpful for further investigation into feed intake regulation in adults of this species.  相似文献

Insulin‐independent actions of glucagon‐like peptide‐1 (GLP‐1) are not yet clear in ruminants. Four Suffolk mature wethers (60.0 ± 6.7 kg body weight (BW)) were intravenously infused with insulin (0.5 mU/kg BW/min; from 0 to 90 min) and GLP‐1 (0.5 μg/kg BW/min; from 60 to 150 min) with both hormones co‐administered from 60 to 90 min, in a repeated‐measure design under euglycemic clamp for 150 min, to investigate whether GLP‐1 has insulin‐independent actions. Jugular blood samples were taken at 15‐min intervals for plasma hormones and metabolites analysis. Compared to baseline concentrations (at 0 min), insulin infusion decreased (P < 0.05) plasma concentrations of glucagon, non‐esterified fatty acids (NEFA), lactate, nonessential amino acids (NEAA), branched‐chain amino acids (BCAA), total amino acids (TAA) and urea nitrogen (UN). Insulin plus GLP‐1 infusion induced a greater increase (P < 0.05) in plasma concentrations of insulin and triglyceride (TG), but decreased (P < 0.05) glucagon, total cholesterol (T‐Cho), NEAA and UN plasma concentrations. GLP‐1 infusion increased (P < 0.05) NEFA, β‐hydroxybutyrate and TG, but decreased (P < 0.05) glucagon, T‐Cho, NEAA, BCAA and UN plasma concentrations. In conclusion, GLP‐1 exerts extrapancreatic roles in ruminants not only insulin‐independent but probably, in contrast to non‐ruminants, antagonistic to insulin effects.  相似文献

The aim was to conduct a weighted single‐step genome‐wide association study to detect genomic regions and putative candidate genes related to residual feed intake, dry matter intake, feed efficiency (FE), feed conversion ratio, residual body weight gain, residual intake and weight gain in Nellore cattle. Several protein‐coding genes were identified within the genomic regions that explain more than 0.5% of the additive genetic variance for these traits. These genes were associated with insulin, leptin, glucose, protein and lipid metabolisms; energy balance; heat and oxidative stress; bile secretion; satiety; feed behaviour; salivation; digestion; and nutrient absorption. Enrichment analysis revealed functional pathways (p‐value < .05) such as neuropeptide signalling (GO:0007218), negative regulation of canonical Wingless/Int‐1 (Wnt) signalling (GO:0090090), bitter taste receptor activity (GO:0033038), neuropeptide hormone activity (GO:0005184), bile secretion (bta04976), taste transduction (bta0742) and glucagon signalling pathway (bta04922). The identification of these genes, pathways and their respective functions should contribute to a better understanding of the genetic and physiological mechanisms regulating Nellore FE‐related traits.  相似文献

The periodical food intake (discrete meals) demands a control system, which includes signals for hunger and satiety. Satiety and hunger change with the absorptive and postabsorptive state of the delivery of nutrients to the organism. The brain areas involved in the regulation of food intake receive informations from three sources: periphery, environment and memory. Hypothalamic structures and pathways of neurotransmitters are considered especially. Beside these, the limbic structures are mainly responsible for the development of motivated feeding behaviour. Disturbances in the regulation of feeding behaviour are prone to cause obesity and anorexia nervosa.  相似文献

Influences of a specific dietary nutrient on glucagon‐like peptide (GLP)‐1‐containing cells in the chicken intestine are not yet clear. Significance of dietary protein level on GLP‐1‐containing cells in the chicken ileum was investigated. Chickens fed control or experimental diets of varying protein levels were examined using immunohistochemical and morphometrical techniques. We show that the protein ingestion had an impact on the activities of GLP‐1‐immunoreactive cells in the chicken ileum. Weight gains declined with decreasing dietary crude protein (CP) levels, but no significant differences were detected in the daily feed intake and villous height. GLP‐1‐immunoreactive cells with a round or oval shape were frequently observed in the lower CP level groups (4.5% and 0%). Frequencies of occurrence of GLP‐1‐immunoreactive cells were 41.1 ± 4.1, 38.5 ± 4, 34.8 ± 3.1 and 34.3 ± 3.7 (cells/mm2, mean ± SD) for dietary CP level of 18%, 9%, 4.5% and 0% groups, respectively and significant differences were recognized between the control and lower CP level groups (P < 0.05). Multiple regression analysis indicated a significant correlation between the daily protein intake and frequencies of occurrence of GLP‐1‐immunoreactive cells. The protein ingestion is one of the signals that influence GLP‐1‐containing cells in the chicken small intestine.  相似文献

Background: Glucocorticoids(GCs) are involved in the control of appetite in birds and mammals. The effect of GCs on feed intake in birds depends on their dietary energy level. But the regulation mechanism of GCs on appetite is still unclear in chickens facing to different energy level. An experiment was conducted to investigate the effect of dexamethasone(DEX) on hypothalamic expression of appetite-related peptides in chickens fed high/low fat diet and under fasting/feeding condition.Results: An interaction between DEX injection and dietary energy level was found on hypothalamic corticotropinreleasing hormone(CRH) gene expression in fasted chickens(P 0.05). The chickens, given a DEX injection and a low fat diet treatment, had the highest CRH m RNA levels than any of the fasted chickens given treatments(P 0.05).Under fasting conditions, the DEX treatment significantly increased hypothalamic neuropeptide Y(NPY) and GC receptors m RNA levels(P 0.05). Under re-feeding conditions, DEX treatment significantly decreased hypothalamic expression levels of NPY and agouti-related peptide(Ag RP) but significantly increased the level of hypothalamic CRH expression(P 0.05).Conclusion: A regulatory network formed by NPY, Ag RP and CRH is associated with the appetite-control by GCs.The result suggests that the regulation of GCs on orexigenic neuropeptides expression is dependent at least partially on dietary energy level and feeding state.  相似文献

Although studies in rodents and humans have evidenced a weaker effect of fat in comparison to carbohydrates on the suppression of food intake, very few studies have been carried out in this field in dogs. This study investigates the effects of a high‐carbohydrate (HC ) and a high‐fat (HF ) diets on subsequent food intake and blood satiety‐related hormones in dogs. Diets differed mainly in their starch (442 vs. 271 g/kg dry matter) and fat (99.3 vs. 214 g/kg dry matter) contents. Twelve Beagle dogs received the experimental diets at maintenance energy requirements in two experimental periods, following a cross‐over arrangement. In week 7 of each period, blood concentrations of active ghrelin, glucagon‐like peptide (GLP ‐1), peptide YY , insulin, and glucose were determined before and at 30, 60, 120, 180, and 360 min post‐feeding. The following week, intake of a challenge food offered 180 min after the HC and HF diets was recorded over two days. In comparison to the dogs on the HC diet, those on the HF diet had a higher basal concentration of GLP ‐1 (p  = .010) and a higher total area under the curve over 180 min post‐prandial (tAUC 0–180) (p  = .031). Dogs on the HC diet showed a higher elevation of ghrelin at 180 min (p  = .033) and of insulin at 360 min (p  = .041), although ghrelin and insulin tAUC 0–180 did not differ between the two diets (p  ? .10). Diet had no effect on challenge food intake (p  ? .10), which correlated with the tAUC 0–180 of ghrelin (r = .514, p  = .010), insulin (r = ?.595, p  = .002), and glucose (r = ?.516, p  = .010). Feeding a diet high in carbohydrate or fat at these inclusion levels does not affect the feeding response at 180 min post‐prandial, suggesting a similar short‐term satiating capacity.  相似文献
