Role of central neurotensin in regulating feeding: Implications for the development and treatment of body weight disorders
2018, Biochimica et Biophysica Acta - Molecular Basis of DiseaseCitation Excerpt :Use of these mouse and pharmacological reagents has, however, provided some consensus on the role of central Nts via NtsR1 vs. NtsR2 in regulating analgesia, blood pressure, body temperature, locomotor activity, drug addiction, drinking and feeding/body weight. The physiologic effects of central Nts vs. site-specific Nts are depicted in Fig. 1 and Table 4 [6,41,46–63], and are briefly described below. Central administration of Nts or Nts agonists suppresses pain, and most evidence supports a primary role for NtsR2 in Nts-mediated analgesia.
