The hypocretins (1 and 2) have emerged as key regulators of sleep and wakefulness. We developed a high-throughput enzyme immunoassay (EIA) to measure total brain hypocretin levels from large numbers of mice. Hypocretin levels were not altered by circadian time or age. However, significant differences in one or both hypocretin peptides were observed between different mouse strains. We studied hypocretin...
Lin, L., M. Umahara, D. A. York and G. A. Bray. β-casomorphins stimulate and enterostatin inhibits the intake of dietary fat in rats. Peptides 19(2) 325-331, 1998.-The effects of β-casomorphins 1-7, 1-5 and 1-4 on food intake of rats adapted to either a high fat (HF) or high carbohydrate (HC) diet have been studied and compared to the effects of enterostatin. Intracerebroventricular (icv) β-casomorphin...
Lin, L. and D. A. York.Enterostatin actions in the amygdala and PVN to suppress feeding in the rat.Peptides 18(9) 1341-1347, 1997.-The pentapeptide enterostatin (ENT) inhibits feeding after injection into the cerebral ventricles. To localize the central sites of action of ENT, the peptide (0.01 to 3.3 nM) was microinjected into several brain regions and the intake of a high fat diet was measured....
Lin, L., J. Chen and D. A. York. Chronic ICV enterostatin preferentially reduced fat intake and lowered body weight. Peptides 18(5) 657–661, 1997.—The pancreatic peptide enterostatin will acutely reduce fat intake in rats provided a choice of diets. Chronic ICV infusions of enterostatin suppress the intake of high fat diet. However, the effects of chronic ICV enterostatin on diet choice has not previously...
