摘要
The effects of i.c.v. administration of orexin/hypocretin on plasma ACTH, corticosterone and c-fos mRNA in the paraventricular nucleus (PVN) of the rat were examined. Plasma ACTH levels were markedly increased at 30 min after i.c.v. administration of orexin-A Plasma corticosterone fevers were significantly increased in a dose-related manner 30 min after i.c.v. administration of orexin-A and orexin-B. In situ hybridization histochemistry revealed that the induction of the c-fos mRNA in the parvocellular division of the PVN was increased in a dose-related manner 30 min after i.c.v. administration of orexin-A and orexin-B. These results suggest that central orexin/hypocretin activates hypothalamo-pituitary-adrenal (HPA) axis and may be involved in stress-induced activation of the HPA axis.
