The Scn7a gene encodes for the specific sodium channel NaX, which is considered a primary determinant of sodium sensing in the brain. Only partial data exist describing the NaX distribution pattern and the cell types that express NaX in both the rat and ...

Severe food restriction activates the central renin angiotensin system
We previously showed that 2 weeks of a severe food restricted (sFR) diet (40% of the caloric intake of the control (CT) diet) up‐regulated the circulating renin angiotensin (Ang) system (RAS) in female Fischer rats, most likely as a result of the fall in

In-vitro and in-vivo antagonistic action of an anti-amylin Spiegelmer [PDF]
The anorectic and dipsogenic effects of the pancreatic hormone amylin are mediated by the area postrema and the subfornical organ. We tested the effectiveness of a new amylin antagonist, a so-called RNA Spiegelmer, by electrophysiological in-vitro ...

Effect of calcitonin on the activity of ANG II-responsive neurons in the rat subfornical organ
In addition to the well-documented ability of calcitonin to lower blood calcium levels, blood-borne calcitonin may also affect neurons located outside the blood-brain barrier, e.g., in the subfornical organ (SFO), where numerous receptors for this ...

Activation of autonomic neural pathways by chronic hypertensive stimuli plays a significant role in pathogenesis of hypertension. Here, we proposed that even a single acute hypertensive stimulus will activate neural and immune pathways that may be ...

Subfornical organ and supraoptic nucleus connections with septal neurons in rats
Extracellular single unit recordings obtained in pentobarbital-anesthetized male Sprague Dawley rats were utilized to examine the electrophysiology of connections of medial septum-diagonal band of Broca (MS-DBB) neurons with the subfornical organ (SFO),

TMEM63B channel is the osmosensor required for thirst drive of interoceptive neurons
Thirst plays a vital role in the regulation of body fluid homeostasis and if deregulated can be life-threatening. Interoceptive neurons in the subfornical organ (SFO) are intrinsically osmosensitive and their activation by hyperosmolarity is necessary ...
