Effects of peripheral and central injections of a serotonin (5-hydroxytryptamine, 5-HT) precursor, 5-hydroxytryptophan (5-HTP), on serum leptin levels were studied in mice. Intracerebroventricular (i.c.v.) injection of 5-HTP or 5-HT did not increase serum leptin levels, although the peripheral injection of 5-HTP elicited an apparent hyperleptinemia. The elevation of serum leptin levels in mice induced by the peripheral injection of 5-HTP was inhibited by pretreatment with the peripheral aromatic amino acid decarboxylase inhibitor, benserazide. Furthermore, the peripheral injection of 5-HT increased serum leptin levels. These results suggest that the hyperleptinemia following systemic injection of 5-HTP is elicited by 5-HT formed in the peripheral system.
