Administration of the neuropeptides NPW and NPB in rodents has been shown to influence the activity of a variety of autonomic and neuroendocrine systems. The paraventricular nucleus is a major autonomic and neuroendocrine integration site in the hypothalamus and neurons within this nucleus express the receptor for these ligands, neuropeptide B/W receptor 1 (NPBWR1). Therefore we used whole cell patch clamp recordings coupled with single cell RT-PCR to examine the effects of neuropeptide W-23 (NPW-23) on the excitability of identified paraventricular nucleus neurons. Oxytocin, vasopressin and thyrotropin releasing hormone neurons were all found to be responsive to 10 nM NPW-23, although both depolarizing and hyperpolarizing effects were observed in each of these cell groups. In contrast corticotropin releasing hormone cells were unaffected. Further subdivision of chemically phenotyped cell groups into magnocellular, neuroendocrine or pre-autonomic neurons, using their electrophysiological fingerprints, revealed that neurons projecting to medullary and spinal targets were predominantly inhibited by NPW-23 while those that projected to median eminence or neural lobe showed nearly equivalent numbers of depolarizing and hyperpolarizing cells. The demonstration of particular phenotypic populations of paraventricular nucleus neurons showing NPW-induced effects on excitability reinforces the importance of the NPB/NPW neuropeptide system as a regulator of autonomic function.
