项目摘要
DESCRIPTION (provided by applicant): The ongoing epidemic of obesity in the United States represents a public health emergency that remains unchecked and without specific therapy. To design specific treatments to prevent and treat obesity, we must first understand the mechanisms that regulate feeding and energy expenditure in order to identify potential therapeutic targets. In this proposal, entitled, Role of the lateral hypothalamic area in leptin action, we will analyze novel leptin-regulated neural pathways in the lateral hypothalamic area (LHA) that likely contribute to body energy homeostasis. We have defined the existence of a novel population of LRb-expressing, leptin-responsive LHA neurons that project locally as well as densely innervating the ventral tegmental area (VTA). We hypothesize that LRb-mediated signaling in the LHA is crucial to the regulation of the VTA and activity of the mesolimbic dopamine system, and thereby for the regulation of feeding and energy balance. We will thus study the regulation of LHA LRb neurons and their role in the regulation of physiology by leptin. We propose the following specific aims: 1. Understand the regulation of LHA LRb neurons. Analyze the regulation of gene expression and activity of LHA LRb neurons, and define the mechanisms by which leptin and other factors mediate this regulation. 2. Define the action of LHA LRb neurons on downstream neurons. Define the downstream target neurons of LHA LRb neurons and the role of LHA LRb neurons in the regulation of these downstream neurons, including the mesolimbic dopamine system. 3. Determine the function of LHA LRb neurons in physiologic leptin action. Examine the physiologic function of LHA LRb neurons by examining energy balance and behavior in animals following a variety of genetic and pharmacologic manipulations directed at these neurons. These studies will enable us to understand the mechanisms by which leptin regulates LHA function, and the mechanisms by which LHA LRb neurons interact with other areas of the CNS in order to contribute to the regulation of feeding and energy balance. This information will in turn lay the groundwork for understanding mechanisms by which LHA-driven feeding may be regulated, which is crucial as we seek to determine the pathogenesis of, and potential therapeutic targets for the ongoing epidemic of obesity. PUBLIC HEALTH RELEVANCE: The ongoing epidemic of obesity in the United States represents a public health emergency that remains unchecked and without specific therapy. To design specific treatments to prevent and treat obesity, we must first understand the mechanisms that regulate feeding and energy expenditure in order to identify potential therapeutic targets. In this proposal, we will analyze novel neural pathways in the brain that likely contribute to body energy homeostasis in order to define these mechanisms and the potential therapeutic targets that they represent.
描述(由申请人提供):肥胖症在美国的持续流行代表了一种公共卫生紧急情况,仍未得到控制,也没有特定的治疗方法。为了设计特定的治疗方法来预防和治疗肥胖,我们必须首先了解调节摄食和能量消耗的机制,以便确定潜在的治疗靶点。在这篇题为《下丘脑外侧区在瘦素作用中的作用》的论文中,我们将分析下丘脑外侧区(LHA)中瘦素调节的新神经通路,这些神经通路可能有助于身体能量稳态。我们已经定义了一种表达lrb、瘦素反应性LHA神经元的新种群的存在,这种神经元局部投射,并密集地支配腹侧被盖区(VTA)。我们假设lrb介导的LHA信号对VTA和中边缘多巴胺系统的活性调节至关重要,从而调节摄食和能量平衡。因此,我们将研究LHA LRb神经元的调节及其在瘦素调节生理中的作用。我们提出以下具体目标:了解LHA LRb神经元的调控。分析LHA LRb神经元基因表达和活性的调控,明确瘦素等因子介导这一调控的机制。2. 定义LHA LRb神经元对下游神经元的作用。明确LHA LRb神经元的下游靶神经元,以及LHA LRb神经元对这些下游神经元的调控作用,包括中边缘多巴胺系统。3. 确定LHA LRb神经元在生理性瘦素作用中的功能。通过对LHA LRb神经元进行多种基因和药理学操作后的能量平衡和行为,研究LHA LRb神经元的生理功能。这些研究将使我们了解瘦素调节LHA功能的机制,以及LHA LRb神经元与中枢神经系统其他区域相互作用的机制,从而促进摄食和能量平衡的调节。这一信息将反过来为理解lha驱动的喂养可能被调节的机制奠定基础,这对于我们寻求确定持续流行的肥胖的发病机制和潜在的治疗靶点至关重要。公共卫生相关性:肥胖在美国的持续流行代表了一种公共卫生紧急情况,仍然没有得到控制和特定的治疗。为了设计特定的治疗方法来预防和治疗肥胖,我们必须首先了解调节摄食和能量消耗的机制,以便确定潜在的治疗靶点。在这个提议中,我们将分析大脑中可能有助于身体能量稳态的新的神经通路,以定义这些机制和它们所代表的潜在治疗靶点。
