    Abstract Interleukin-6 (IL6) is a cytokine important for inducing the fever response during infection and has been reported to uphold core body temperature during acute cold exposure. Recently it has also been indicated that IL6 in serum increases in cold-exposed mice. The aim of the present study was to investigate if IL6 is important for core body temperature regulation following a long-term cold exposure in mice. Experiments were performed with global IL6 deficient (-/-) mice, mice with conditional IL6 receptor α (IL6Rα) knockdown in the central nervous system (CNS; IL6Rα

    Abstract Alcohol use disorder is a complex neuropsychiatric disorder affecting both males and females worldwide; however, the efficacy of current pharmacotherapies varies. Recent advances show that gut-brain peptides, like amylin, regulate alcohol behavioural responses by acting on brain areas involved in alcohol reward processes. Thus, the activation of amylin receptors (AMYRs) by salmon calcitonin (sCT) decreases alcohol behaviours in male rodents. Given that sCT also activates the sole calcitonin receptor (CTR), studies of more selective AMYR agonists in both male and female rodents are needed to explore amylinergic modulation of alcohol behaviours. Therefore, we investigated the effects of repeated administration of a selective long-acting AMYR agonist, NNC0174-1213 (AM1213), on alcohol, water and food intake, as well as body weight in male and female rats chronically exposed to alcohol. We confirm our previous studies with sCT in male rats, as repeated AM1213 administration for 2 weeks initially decreased alcohol intake in both male and female rats. However, this reduction ceases in both sexes on later sessions, accompanied by an increase in males. AM1213 reduced food intake and body weight in both male and female rats, with sustained body weight loss in males after discontinuation of the treatment. Moreover, AM1213 administration for 3 or 7 days, differentially altered dopamine, serotonin and their metabolites in the reward-related areas in males and females, providing tentative, but different, downstream mechanism through which selective activation of AMYR may alter alcohol intake. Our data provide clarified insight into the importance of AMYRs for alcohol intake regulation in both sexes.

    Abstract Background: Dietary thylakoids derived from spinach have beneficial effects on body fat accumulation and blood lipids as demonstrated in humans and rodents. Important mechanisms established include delayed fat digestion in the intestine, without causing steatorrhea, and increased fatty acid oxidation in intestinal cells. The objective of our study was to elucidate if increased fecal fat excretion is an important mechanism to normalize adipose tissue metabolism during high-fat feeding in mice supplemented with thylakoids.
    Methods: Mice were randomized to receive HFD or thylHFD for 14 days (
    Results: Thylakoid supplementation for 14 days caused an increased faecal fat content without compensatory eating compared to control. As a result, thylakoid treated animals had reduced fat mass depots and reduced liver fat accumulation compared to control. The size distribution of adipocytes isolated from visceral adipose tissue was narrowed and the cell size decreased. Adipocytes isolated from thylakoid-treated mice displayed a significantly increased lipogenesis, and protein expression of peroxisome proliferator-activated receptor gamma (PPARγ), down-stream target FAS, as well as transcription factor coactivators PGC1-α and LPIN-1 were upregulated in adipose tissue from thylakoid-fed mice.
    Conclusions: Together, these data suggest that thylakoid supplementation reduces body fat and fat cell size by binding to dietary fat and increasing its fecal excretion, thus reducing dietary fat available for absorption.

    Abstract Glucagon-like peptide 1 (GLP-1) is an incretine hormone that controls consummatory behavior and glucose homeostasis. It is released in response to nutrient ingestion from the intestine and production in the brain has also been identified. Given that GLP-1 receptors are expressed in reward areas, such as the nucleus accumbens and ventral tegmental area, and that common mechanisms regulate food and drug-induced reward we hypothesize that GLP-1 receptors are involved in reward regulation. Herein the effect of the GLP-1 receptor agonist Exendin-4 (Ex4), on amphetamine- and cocaine-induced activation of the mesolimbic dopamine system was investigated in mice. In a series of experiments we show that treatment with Ex4, at a dose with no effect per se, reduce amphetamine- as well as cocaine-induced locomotor stimulation, accumbal dopamine release as well as conditioned place preference in mice. Collectively these data propose a role for GLP-1 receptors in regulating drug reward. Moreover, the GLP-1 signaling system may be involved in the development of drug dependence since the rewarding effects of addictive drugs involves interferences with the mesolimbic dopamine system. Given that GLP-1 analogues, such as exenatide and liraglutide, are clinically available for treatment of type II diabetes, we propose that these should be elucidated as treatments of drug dependence.

    Abstract The gastrointestinal peptide glucagon-like peptide 1 (GLP-1) is known to regulate consummatory behavior and is released in response to nutrient ingestion. Analogues of this peptide recently emerged as novel pharmacotherapies for treatment of type II diabetes since they reduce gastric emptying, glucagon secretion as well as enhance glucose-dependent insulin secretion. The findings that GLP-1 targets reward related areas including mesolimbic dopamine areas indicate that the physiological role of GLP-1 extends beyond food intake and glucose homeostasis control to include reward regulation. The present series of experiments was therefore designed to investigate the effects of the GLP-1 receptor agonist, Exendin-4 (Ex4), on established nicotine-induced effects on the mesolimbic dopamine system in mice. Specifically, we show that treatment with Ex4, at a dose with no effect per se, attenuate nicotine-induced locomotor stimulation, accumbal dopamine release as well as the expression of conditioned place preference in mice. In accordance, Ex4 also blocks nicotine-induced expression of locomotor sensitization in mice. Given that development of nicotine addiction largely depends on the effects of nicotine on the mesolimbic dopamine system these findings indicate that the GLP-1 receptor may be a potential target for the development of novel treatment strategies for nicotine cessations in humans.
