概括
在肥胖小鼠中向激活雌激素受体α (ERα) 通过降低下丘脑内皮质网膜 (ER) 应激和增强素信号来降低体重和食物摄入量.
科学领域:
- 神经内分泌学
- 代谢调节
- 肥胖研究
背景情况:
- 肥胖源于能量失衡, 下丘脑对能量稳定至关重要.
- 雌激素受体α (ERα) 影响人体体重和能量摄入,但其精确的厌食机制尚不清楚.
- 下丘脑内质网膜 (ER) 的压力与肥胖的发病有关.
研究的目的:
- 在饮食引起的肥胖症中研究ERα激活对下丘脑ER压力的作用.
- 阐明ERα通过下丘脑路径调节能量摄入和体重的作用.
主要方法:
- 高脂肪饮食 (HFD) 诱导了卵巢切除 (OVX) 和卵巢完整的小鼠的肥胖.
- 在OVX-HFD小鼠中使用ERα激动剂 (PPT) 的治疗.
- 评估体重,能量摄入量,下丘脑神经Y (NPY),α-黑色素刺激激素 (α-MSH),瘦素信号传递 (JAK2/STAT3) 和ER压力标志物 (GRP78,ATF6).
主要成果:
- 卵巢切除加剧了HFD诱导的体重增加,增加了NPY,ER压力,并减少了α-MSH和瘦素信号.
- 在OVX-HFD小鼠中,PPT治疗显著降低了体重和能量摄入量.
- PPT降低了下丘脑NPY,增加了α-MSH,降低了ER压力标志物,并增强了瘦素信号.
结论:
- 在高脂肪饮食的小鼠中,ERα激活可缓解肥胖.
- 激活ERα可以降低下丘脑的ER压力,并改善瘦素的敏感性.
- 有针对性的ERα调节是肥胖管理的潜在治疗策略.

Regulation of Food Intake
370
Short-term regulation of food intake primarily involves neural signals from the gastrointestinal (GI) tract, blood nutrient levels, and GI tract hormones. Communication between the gut and brain via vagal nerve fibers plays a significant role in evaluating the contents of the gut. Clinical studies have shown that protein ingestion produces a more prolonged response in these nerve fibers compared to an equivalent amount of glucose. Additionally, the activation of stretch receptors caused by GI...

Role of ER in the Secretory Pathway
5.6K
Eukaryotic cells have a special pathway that enables communication between various intracellular membrane-bound compartments and also with the extracellular environment. This pathway is termed as the secretory pathway.
Components of the secretory pathway
About a third of proteins synthesized in the cell are sorted via the secretory route. They shuffle between different compartments in membrane-bound vesicles until they reach their final destination. The main intracellular compartments involved...
