It is believed that oxidative stress plays a central role in the pathogenesis of metabolic diseases like diabetes mellitus (DM) and its complications (like peripheral neuropathy) as well as in neurodegenerative disorders like sporadic Alzheimer's disease (sAD). Representative experimental models

Glucose is required for brain energy metabolism. Decerebration, aqueduct occlusion, and cannula mapping studies have established that glucose-sensing cells capable of eliciting feeding and adrenal medullary responses to glucoprivation are localized in the hindbrain. Glucoprivation also evokes corticosterone and glucagon

5-Thioglucose (5-TG) has been shown to increase food intake after acute administration. To determine the longer-term effects of 5-TG on feeding and body composition, thirty-four female Sprague-Dawley rats were cannulated into the fourth ventricle and infused with artificial CSF and

Although several studies implicate small declines in blood glucose levels as stimulus for spontaneous meal initiation, no mechanism is known for how these dips might initiate feeding. To assess the role of ventromedial hypothalamus (VMH) (arcuate plus ventromedial nucleus) glucosensing

Previous research has shown that glucoprivic and lipoprivic metabolic challenges selectively augment the performance of appetitive responses conditioned to carbohydrate- and fat-associated cues, respectively. The present experiment investigated whether intracerebroventricular (i.c.v.) infusion of neuropeptide Y (NPY) has a similar selective
