Role of the dorsomedial hypothalamus in thermogenesis and tachycardia caused by microinjection of prostaglandin E2 into the preoptic area in anesthetized rats.

Prostaglandin E2 (PGE2) acts in the preoptic area (POA) of the mammalian hypothalamus to increase body temperature and heart rate. Chemical stimulation of the dorsomedial hypothalamus (DMH), a region richly innervated by neurons in the POA, evokes sympathetically-mediated increases in heart rate and body temperature. We tested the hypothesis that neurons in the DMH mediate hyperthermia and tachycardia resulting from the action of PGE2 in the POA. Microinjection of PGE2 150 pmol/15 nl into the POA in urethane-anesthetized rats caused increases in body temperature and heart rate that were sharply reversed after injection of muscimol 80 pmol/100 nl into the DMH but not after similar injection of saline vehicle. Therefore, thermogenic and tachycardic actions of PGE2 in the POA are at least in part a consequence of neuronal activity in the region of the DMH.

Intravenous glucose infusion decreases intracisternal thyrotropin-releasing hormone induced vagal stimulation of gastric acid secretion in anesthetized rats.

Gastroparesis is a common complication of diabetes attributed to autonomic neuropathy. This study investigated whether acute hyperglycemia influences central thyrotropin-releasing hormone (TRH), a well-established brain medullary vagal stimulus, induced gastric acid secretion in overnight fasted, urethane-anesthetized rats. Intravenous infusion of D-glucose (20%, 30% and 40%) dose dependently reduced intracisternal TRH-induced gastric acid secretion (71+/-28 micromol/90 min) by 39%, 90% and 100% respectively. Pretreatment with cholecystokinin(A) (CCK(A)) receptor antagonist devazepide (1 mg/kg) did not influence the inhibitory effect of intravenous glucose (30%). These results indicate that hyperglycemia may have a central effect to antagonize medullary TRH stimulation of vagal outflow to the stomach.
