项目摘要
Project Summary
The development of therapeutic drugs to cure obesity has not been successful due to unwanted side effects
and limited efficacy. My long-term research goal is to delineate neural pathways responsible for body weight
homeostasis, and provide a framework for effective and specific therapeutics against obesity. Research in the
last decades has identified arcuate neurons in the hypothalamus expressing agouti-related protein (AgRP) as a
key node in feeding. Recently, we and others demonstrate that chronic activation of AgRP neurons or adult
deletion of leptin receptors in these neurons leads to massive obesity on chow diet that is comparable to leptin
deficiency. AgRP neurons are known to release GABA, NPY and AgRP and send independent and parallel
projections to several key brain sites. Importantly, the expression of leptin receptor has been suggested to be
more prominent in those AgRP neurons that project to extra-hypothalamic areas. However, how the
neurotransmitters and the individual AgRP neuron projections mediate the obesity produced by chronic
activation of AgRP neurons are unknown. Additionally, how the individual AgRP neuron projections mediates
leptin action on obesity is also unknown
To address these knowledge gaps, we aim to examine the role of AgRP individual neurotransmitters (Aim 1),
projection-specific subpopulations of AgRP neurons (Aim 2) and their LepR expression (Aim 3) in mediating
the obesity development produced by chronic AgRP neuron activation. Advanced viral tracing and
intersectional mouse genetics will be used to achieve projection-specific manipulations in AgRP neurons to
achieve robust investigation. This proposal is based on our previously established massive obese mouse
models with chronic AgRP neuron activation or LepR deletion in AgRP neurons, and utilizes a combination of
inducible deletion and tracing to ex-amine the relative importance of individual transmitters and projections in
obesity development. The results will fill the gap in the underlying neurocircuit mechanism for AgRP neurons
on obesity development and will set up stages to identify key downstream mediators and neurons mediating
leptin and AgRP neurons in obesity development, representing a significant step in understanding brain
mechanisms in body weight regulation.
项目摘要
治疗肥胖症的治疗药物的开发由于不希望的副作用而没有成功
和有限的功效。我的长期研究目标是描绘出负责体重的神经通路
体内平衡,并提供了针对肥胖症有效和特异性治疗的框架。的研究
最近几十年来,已经确定下丘脑中表达刺鼠相关蛋白(AgRP)的弓状神经元是一种神经元。
关键节点喂养。最近,我们和其他人证明,AgRP神经元或成人的慢性激活,
这些神经元中的瘦素受体的缺失导致与瘦素相当的食物饮食的大量肥胖
缺陷已知AgRP神经元释放GABA、NPY和AgRP,并独立且平行地发送
投射到大脑的几个关键部位重要的是,瘦素受体的表达被认为是
在投射到下丘脑外区域的AgRP神经元中更为突出。然而,
神经递质和单个AgRP神经元投射介导慢性肥胖产生的肥胖。
AgRP神经元的激活是未知的。此外,单个AgRP神经元投射如何介导
瘦素对肥胖作用也是未知的
为了解决这些知识缺口,我们的目标是研究AgRP个体神经递质的作用(目标1),
AgRP神经元的投射特异性亚群(Aim 2)及其LepR表达(Aim 3)介导
慢性AgRP神经元激活引起的肥胖发展。先进的病毒追踪和
交叉小鼠遗传学将用于实现AgRP神经元中的投射特异性操作,
实现强有力的调查。这个建议是基于我们先前建立的巨大肥胖小鼠
用慢性AgRP神经元激活或AgRP神经元中的LepR缺失建立模型,并利用
可诱导缺失和追踪到前胺的相对重要性,个别递质和预测,
肥胖发展该结果将填补AgRP神经元神经回路机制的差距
并将建立阶段,以确定关键的下游介质和神经元介导的肥胖发展,
肥胖发展中的瘦素和AgRP神经元,代表了理解大脑的重要一步
体重调节机制。
