Hindbrain catecholamine neurons control multiple glucoregulatory responses.

Ritter S, Dinh TT, Li AJ (2006) Hindbrain catecholamine neurons control multiple glucoregulatory responses. Physiol Behav 89(4):490-500. doi: 10.1016/j.physbeh.2006.05.036

Summary: Glucose deficit evokes many responses in the brain. Recently these workers have been focusing on mechanisms eliciting glucoregulatory responses; the focus has settled on catecholaminergic neurons in the hindbrain. In a series of experiments rats received injections of anti-DBH-SAP (Cat. #IT-03) into epinephrine (E) and norepinephrine (NE) terminal areas of hypothalamus and spinal cord. The data suggest that E/NE neurons coordinate various components of the behavioral response to glucoprivation.
