Abstract

Our recent research has indicated that intracerebroventricular (ICV) injection of pituitary adenylate cyclase-activating polypeptide (PACAP) suppresses food intake and locomotor activity in the goldfish. However, the anorexigenic mechanism of PACAP has not yet been clarified. The aim of this study was to investigate the relationship between the anorexigenic action of PACAP and that of corticotropin-releasing hormone (CRH), which is implicated in the regulation of energy homeostasis as a powerful anorexigenic peptide in the goldfish brain. We first examined feeding-induced changes in the expression of CRH mRNA, and the effect of ICV administration of PACAP on the expression of CRH mRNA in the goldfish brain. Semiquantitative analysis revealed that the expression of CRH mRNA was significantly increased by excessive feeding for 7 days. ICV administration of PACAP at a dose sufficient to suppress food intake induced a significant increase in the expression of CRH mRNA. We also examined the effect of alpha-helical CRH(9-41), a CRH antagonist, on the anorexigenic action of PACAP in the goldfish. The inhibitory effect of PACAP was completely suppressed by treatment with alpha-helical CRH(9-41). We finally investigated the effect of IC...Continue Reading
