Intranasal oxytocin reduces attentional bias to food stimuli
2022, AppetiteCitation Excerpt :Individuals on a vegan diet, with diabetes or food allergies were excluded due to the food provided. Pregnant and breastfeeding women (by self-report) were also excluded from participation due to their altered oxytocin function and sensitivity (e.g. Crowley, Parker, Armstrong, Spinolo, & Grosvenor, 1992; Fenelon, Poulain, & Theodosis, 1993). Altered endogenous oxytocin function is associated with high emotional arousal or stress (e.g. bereavement, financial windfall) so participants reporting such events were also excluded (Engelmann, Ebner, Landgraf, Holsboer, & Wotjak, 1999; Kovacs, 1986, pp. 91–128).
Sweet and bitter taste stimuli activate VTA projection neurons in the parabrachial nucleus
2019, Brain ResearchCitation Excerpt :Sucrose tended to activate more VTA-projecting neurons than either quinine or water, although this effectiveness was dependent on which PBN region was examined. Although Fos immunoreactivity is a useful technique for visualization of neuronal activity in a spatially informative manner throughout the brains of animals, it has several aspects that should be considered: The relative strength of a response is not particularly evident in single neurons, physiological activity and Fos expression are not always correlated (Fenelon et al., 1993), and some brain areas show constitutive expression of Fos protein, making discrimination of actual stimulus-evoked activity problematic (e.g. Kovács, 2008). Furthermore, the strength of Fos expression in sensory cortices (including gustatory cortex) depends on the experience of the animal (Bamji-Stocke et al., 2018).
