TL;DR: In this article, the effect of des-acyl ghrelin on the orexigenic action of acyl-ghrelin in the goldfish was investigated, and the results suggest that, as is seen in rodents, circulating acyl Ghrelin derived from peripheral tissues acts via primary sensory afferent pathways on feeding centers in the brain.
Journal ArticleDOI
Regulation by orexin of feeding behaviour and locomotor activity in the goldfish.
Tomoya Nakamachi,Kouhei Matsuda,Keisuke Maruyama,Tohru Miura,Minoru Uchiyama,Hisayuki Funahashi,Takeshi Sakurai,Seiji Shioda +7 more
TL;DR: Results indicate that the orexin functions as an orexigenic factor in the goldfish brain and an anti‐orexin serum injection reduces food consumption in fasted fish.
Journal ArticleDOI
Neuropeptide Y stimulates food intake in the Zebrafish, Danio rerio
Eri Yokobori,Morio Azuma,R. Nishiguchi,Ki Sung Kang,Motoki Kamijo,Minoru Uchiyama,Kouhei Matsuda +6 more
TL;DR: Results indicate that NPY acts as an orexigenic factor in the zebrafish and the effect of feeding status on NPY‐like immunoreactivity and the expression level of the NPY transcript in the brain is examined.
Journal ArticleDOI
Regulation of food intake in the goldfish by interaction between ghrelin and orexin
Tohru Miura,Keisuke Maruyama,Sei-Ichi Shimakura,Hiroyuki Kaiya,Minoru Uchiyama,Kenji Kangawa,Seiji Shioda,Kouhei Matsuda +7 more
TL;DR: In goldfish, ghrelin and orexin-A have interacting orexigenic effects in the central nervous system, the first report that orexIn-A-induced feeding is mediated by the Ghrelin signaling in any animal model.
Journal ArticleDOI
Neuropeptide Y mediates ghrelin-induced feeding in the goldfish, Carassius auratus.
Tohru Miura,Keisuke Maruyama,Sei-Ichi Shimakura,Hiroyuki Kaiya,Minoru Uchiyama,Kenji Kangawa,Seiji Shioda,Kouhei Matsuda +7 more
TL;DR: The results indicate that the orexigenic action of central ghrelin is mediated by the release of NPY in the brain with stimulating NPY synthesis, and that peripheral gh Relin also stimulates food intake via brain NPY pathway.
