Hudson B, Ritter S (2004) Hindbrain catecholamine neurons mediate consummatory responses to glucoprivation. Physiol Behav 82(2-3):241-250. doi: 10.1016/j.physbeh.2004.03.032
Summary: Norepinephrine (NE) and epinephrine (E) neurons appear to potently stimulate feeding behavior when administered to the hypothalamus. Previous work has indicated that these neurons play important roles in feeding responses due to glucoprivation. Bilateral 42 ng-injections of anti-DBH-SAP (Cat. #IT-03) were administered to rats to investigate the roles of NE and E neurons in the consummatory phase of the glucoprivic response. The results indicate that catecholaminergic neurons are involved in both appetitive and consummatory responses to glucoprivation.
