项目摘要

Project Summary Drugs that target the glucagon-like peptide 1 receptor (GLP-1R) system are commonly prescribed for the treatment of type II diabetes. Unfortunately, we do not yet fully understand how these drugs work on targets in the central nervous system or how brain GLP-1Rs regulate eating behaviors. In this proposal we will characterize the functional role of GLP-1Rs in the central amygdala (CeA) using neural circuit, genetic, and behavioral approaches in laboratory mice. In Aim 1, we will use fiber photometry of GCaMP7 in the CeA in combination with 1) local deletion of CeA GLP-1 and 2) local CeA administration of GLP-1R agonists to determine the functional role of CeA GLP-1Rs in regulating neural activity and neural responses to peripherally applied GLP-1R agonists. In Aim 2, we will use site-specific genetic deletion of CeA GLP-1Rs in combination with high precision, longitudinal assessment of feeding using miniaturized feeding devices that can be used in the mouse homecage and adapted for operant feeding. Using this technology, we will measure appetitive and consummatory behavior under free or operant conditions throughout the light cycle over several weeks. We will also determine if CeA GLP-1Rs are required for the anorexigenic effects of peripherally administered GLP-1R agonists using two separate paradigms: fasting-induced refeed and intermittent access to high fat diet. Using these two binge-like eating paradigms will peripherally administer Exendin-4, a potent GLP-1R agonist, in the presence or absence of CeA GLP-1Rs. We hypothesize that CeA GLP-1Rs are required for the neurophysiological effects of peripherally administered GLP-1R agonists on the CeA and that activation of CeA GLP-1Rs is sufficient to induce robust changes in CeA neural activity in vivo. Behaviorally, we hypothesize that CeA GLP-1Rs constrain motivation and appetitive behavior for palatable food, and that deletion of these receptors will partially suppress the effects of peripheral GLP-1R agonists on binge-like food intake. Over the long-term we hope to understand the contribution of the brain’s endogenous GLP-1R system that may inform more effective treatments for obesity and type II diabetes.

项目概要靶向胰高血糖素样肽 1 受体 (GLP-1R) 系统的药物通常用于治疗以下疾病：不幸的是，我们尚未完全了解这些药物如何作用于靶点。中枢神经系统或大脑 GLP-1R 如何调节饮食行为在本提案中，我们将描述其特征。使用神经回路、遗传和行为研究 GLP-1R 在中央杏仁核 (CeA) 中的功能作用在目标 1 中，我们将结合使用 CeA 中 GCaMP7 的光纤光度测定法。 1) CeA GLP-1 的局部缺失和 2) GLP-1R 激动剂的局部 CeA 给药以确定功能 CeA GLP-1R 在调节神经活动和对外周应用的 GLP-1R 激动剂的神经反应中的作用。在目标 2 中，我们将结合高精度使用 CeA GLP-1R 的位点特异性遗传删除，使用可在小鼠笼中使用的小型喂养装置进行喂养的纵向评估并适应操作性喂养，我们将测量食欲和完成行为。在整个光周期的自由或操作条件下，我们还将在几周内确定 CeA 是否存在。使用两种方法外周给药的 GLP-1R 激动剂的减食欲作用需要 GLP-1R。不同的范例：禁食诱导的再进食和间歇性摄入高脂肪饮食使用这两种暴食式饮食。饮食模式将在存在或不存在的情况下外周施用 Exendin-4，一种有效的 GLP-1R 激动剂我们勇敢地说，CeA GLP-1R 是神经生理学作用所必需的。在 CeA 上外周施用 GLP-1R 激动剂，并且 CeA GLP-1R 的激活足以诱导体内 CeA 神经活动的剧烈变化在行为上，我们捕获了 CeA GLP-1Rs 约束。对美味食物的动机和食欲行为，删除这些受体将部分抑制从长远来看，我们希望了解外周 GLP-1R 激动剂对暴饮暴食的影响。大脑内源性 GLP-1R 系统的贡献可能为肥胖症的更有效治疗提供信息和二型糖尿病。
