Regional differences of cFos immunoreactive cells in the preoptic areas in hypothalamus associated with heat and cold responses in mice
2018, Neuroscience LettersCitation Excerpt :Tb at 38 °C was greater than that at 27 °C (Fig. 1). This result coincides with previous studies that Tb increased during various heat exposures: 34 °C in mice [41] and 32–40 °C in rats [3,11,21,32]. Consistent with previous studies that Tb did not change during cold exposures: 10 °C and 20 °C [12,39–41] in mice and 10 °C in rats [21], 10 °C exposure did not affect Tb (Fig. 1).
Sickness behavior is accentuated in rats with metabolic disorders induced by a fructose diet
2015, Journal of NeuroimmunologyCitation Excerpt :By contrast, Lawrence et al. (2012) observed either fewer Fos-positive cells or no significant activation of said cells in the SON or BNST of obese mice treated with LPS; the PVN exhibited a significant increase in the number of Fos-positive cells, however. Regarding thermoregulation, increased Fos expression was observed in the MPOA of rats treated with fructose, and several studies have described increased Fos expression in both the PVN and the MPOA of rats following LPS stimulation (Elmquist et al., 1996, 1997; du Plessis et al., 2006). In summary, the results of the present study strongly demonstrate that fructose supplementation induces metabolic disorders such as dyslipidemia and the enhanced accumulation of visceral adipose tissue.
Effect of low estrogen on neurons in the preoptic area of hypothalamus of ovariectomized rats
2014, Acta HistochemicaCitation Excerpt :After warm stimulus by 34 °C, expression of c-Fos protein is observed in the MnPO, LPA (lateral preoptic area), AH (hypothalamic area) and DMH (dorsomedial hypothalamic nucleus) (Harikai et al., 2003). After warm stimulus by 37 °C, a strong expression of c-Fos protein is observed in the MPA, CeA (central amygdaloid nucleus), BLA, LPB and P5 (Plessis et al., 2006). After cold stimulus by 4 °C, a strong expression of c-Fos protein is observed in MPA, LPB (lateral parabrachial nucleus), P5 (peritrigeminal nucleus) and few expressions in BLA (basolateral amygdaloid nuclei) (Bratincsak and Palkovits, 2004).
