Abstract
We have shown that non-sulfated cholecystokinin-8 (NS CCK-8) reduces food intake in adult male Sprague Dawley rats by activating cholecystokinin-B receptor (CCK-BR). Here, we tested the hypothesis that the vagus nerve and the celiaco-mesenteric ganglia may play a role in this reduction. The hypothesis stems from the following facts. The vagus and the celiaco-mesenteric ganglia contain NS CCK-8, they express and have binding sites for CCK-BR, NS CCK-8 activates CCK-BR on afferent vagal and sympathetic fibers and the two structures link the gastrointestinal tract to central feeding nuclei in the brain, which also contain the peptide and CCK-BR. To test this hypothesis, three groups of free-feeding rats, vagotomy (VGX), celiaco-mesenteric ganglionectomy (CMGX) and sham-operated, received NS CCK-8 (0, 0.5 and 1 nmol/kg) intraperitoneally prior to the onset of the dark cycle and various feeding behaviors were recorded. We found that in sham-operated rats both doses of NS CCK-8 reduced meal size (MS), prolonged the intermeal interval (IMI, time between first and second meal), increased satiety ratio (SR = IMI/MS), reduced 24-h food intake and reduced the number of meals relative to saline control. In the VGX and the CMGX groups, all of the previous responses were attenuated. Consistent with our hypothesis, the findings of the current work suggest a role for the vagus nerve and the celiaco-mesenteric ganglia in the feeding responses evoked by NS CCK-8.

Abstract
Background and Objectives: Bidirectional signaling between the gastrointestinal tract and the brain is vital for maintaining whole-body homeostasis. Moreover, emerging evidence implicates vagal afferent signaling in the modulation of host physiology by microbes, which are most abundant in the colon. This study aims to optimize and advance dissection and recording techniques to facilitate real-time recordings of afferent neural signals originating in the distal colon. New Protocol: This paper describes a dissection technique, which facilitates extracellular electrophysiological recordings from visceral pelvic, spinal and vagal afferent neurons in response to stimulation of the distal colon. Examples of Application: Focal application of 75 mM KCl to a section of distal colon with exposed submucosal or myenteric nerve cell bodies and sensory nerve endings evoked activity in the superior mesenteric plexus and the vagal nerve. Noradrenaline stimulated nerve activity in the superior mesenteric plexus, whereas application of carbachol stimulated vagal nerve activity. Exposure of an ex vivo section of distal colon with an intact colonic mucosa to peptidoglycan, but not lipopolysaccharide, evoked vagal nerve firing. Discussion: Previous studies have recorded vagal signaling evoked by bacteria in the small intestine. The technical advances of this dissection and recording technique facilitates recording of afferent nerve signals evoked in extrinsic sensory pathways by neuromodulatory reagents applied to the distal colon. Moreover, we have demonstrated vagal afferent activation evoked by bacterial products applied to the distal colonic mucosa. This protocol may contribute to our understanding of functional bowel disorders where gut-brain communication is dysfunctional, and facilitate real-time interrogation of microbiota-gut-brain signaling.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Peptide tyrosine tyrosine 3-36 (peptide YY 3-36 or PYY 3-36) reduces food intake by unknown site(s). AIM To test the hypothesis that the gastrointestinal tract contains sites of action regulating meal size (MS) and intermeal interval (IMI) length by PYY 3-36. METHODS Peptide YY 3-36 (0, 1, 5, 10 and 20 nmol/kg) was injected in the aorta, the artery that supplies the gastrointestinal tract, prior to the onset of the dark cycle in free feeding male Sprague-Dawley rats and food intake was measured. Then, PYY 3-36 (25 nmol/kg) was injected intraperitoneally in these rats and Fos-like immunoreactivity (Fos-LI, a marker for neuronal activation) was quantified in the small intestinal enteric neurons, both myenteric and submucosal, and the dorsal vagal complex (DVC) of the hindbrain. RESULTS PYY 3-36 reduced first MS, decreased IMI length, shortened duration of first meal and increased Fos-LI in enteric and DVC neurons. However, PYY 3-36 failed to change the size of the second meal, satiety ratio, latency to first meal, number of meals and 24 h intake relative to saline control. CONCLUSION The gastrointestinal tract may contain sites of action regulating MS reduction by PYY 3-36.

Abstract
The current study tested the hypothesis that cholecystokinin (CCK) A receptor (CCKAR) in areas supplied by the celiac artery (CA), stomach and upper duodenum, and the cranial mesenteric artery (CMA), small and parts of the large intestine, is necessary for reduction of meal size, prolongation of the intermeal interval (time between first and second meal) and increased satiety ratio (intermeal interval/meal size or amount of food consumed during any given unit of time) by the non-nutrient stimulator of endogenous CCK release camostat. Consistent with our previous findings camostat reduced meal size, prolonged the intermeal interval and increased the satiety ratio. Here, we report that blocking CCKAR in the area supplied by the celiac artery attenuated reduction of meal size by camostat more so than the cranial mesenteric artery route. Blocking CCKAR in the area supplied by the cranial mesenteric artery attenuated prolongation of the intermeal interval length and increased satiety ratio by camostat more so than the celiac artery route. Blocking CCKAR in the areas supplied by the femoral artery (control) failed to alter the feeding responses evoked by camostat. These results support the hypothesis that CCKAR in the area supplied by the CA is necessary for reduction of meal size by camostat whereas CCKAR in the area supplied by the CMA is necessary for prolongation of the intermeal interval and increased satiety ratio by this substance. Our results demonstrate that meal size and intermeal interval length by camostat are regulated through different gastrointestinal sites.

Abstract
The site(s) of action that control meal size and intermeal interval (IMI) length by cholecystokinin-58 (CCK-58), the only detectable endocrine form of CCK in the rat, are not known. To test the hypothesis that the gastrointestinal tract may contain such sites, we infused low doses of CCK-58 (0.01, 0.05, 0.15 and 0.25nmol/kg) into the celiac artery (CA, supplying stomach and upper duodenum), the cranial mesenteric artery (CMA, supplying small and most of the large intestines), the femoral artery (FA, control) and the portal vein (PV, draining the gastrointestinal tract) prior to the onset of the dark cycle in freely fed male rats. We measured the first meal size (chow), second meal size, IMI and satiety ratio (SR, IMI/meal size). We found that (1) all doses of CCK-58 given in the CA and the highest dose given in the CMA reduced the first meal size, (2) all doses of CCK-58 given in the CA reduced the second meal size, (3) a CCK-58 dose of 0.15nmol/kg given in the CA and 0.15 and 0.25nmol/kg given in the CMA prolonged the IMI, (4) CCK-58 (0.05, 0.15, 0.25nmol/kg) given in the CA and 0.25nmol/kg given in the CMA increased the SR, and (5) CCK-58 given in the FA and PV had no effect on the meal size or intermeal interval. These results support our hypothesis that the gastrointestinal tract contains sites of action that regulate meal size and IMI length via CCK-58. The stomach and upper duodenum may contain sites regulating meal size, whereas the small intestine and part of the large intestine may contain sites regulating the IMI.

Abstract
The enteric nervous system (ENS) integrates numerous sensory signals in order to control and maintain normal gut functions. Nutrients are one of the prominent factors which determine the chemical milieu in the lumen and, after absorption, also within the gut wall. This review summarizes current knowledge on the impact of key nutrients on ENS functions and phenotype, covering their acute and long-term effects. Enteric neurones contain the molecular machinery to respond specifically to nutrients. These transporters and receptors are not expressed exclusively in the ENS but are also present in other cells such as enteroendocrine cells (EECs) and extrinsic sensory nerves, signalling satiety or hunger. Glucose, amino acids and fatty acids all activate enteric neurones, as suggested by enhanced c-Fos expression or spike discharge. These excitatory effects are the result of a direct neuronal activation but also involve the activation of EECs which, upon activation by luminal nutrients, release mediators such as ghrelin, cholecystokinin or serotonin. The presence or absence of nutrients in the intestinal lumen induces long-term changes in neurotransmitter expression, excitability, neuronal survival and ultimately impact upon gut motility, secretion or intestinal permeability. Together with EECs and vagal nerves, the ENS must be recognized as an important player initiating concerted responses to nutrients. It remains to be studied how, for instance, nutrient-induced changes in the ENS may influence additional gut functions such as intestinal barrier repair, intestinal epithelial stem cell proliferation/differentiation and also the signalling of extrinsic nerves to brain regions which control food intake.

Abstract
Cholecystokinin (CCK) and its receptor subtypes CCK-1 and -2 have diverse homeostatic functions. CCK-1 and -2 receptors share a common phosphatidylinositol signaling pathway, yet little is known regarding their possible functional coupling. We focused on CCK-mediated Ca(2+) signaling in parvocellular paraventricular nucleus (PVN) cells, which control satiety and other autonomic functions. Analysis of mouse hypothalamic slices demonstrated that the general CCK receptor agonist CCK-8s (10 nM) triggered Ca(2+) transients most significantly in the posterior subregion of the PVN (PaPo). This 10 nM CCK-8s-induced response was absent in CCK-1 receptor knock-out (CCK1R(-/-)) slices, showing that the response is mediated by CCK-1 receptors. CCK-8s concentrations higher than 30 nM triggered a Ca(2+) rise similarly in wild-type and CCK1R(-/-) slices. The large CCK-8s (100 nM)-induced Ca(2+) responses in CCK1R(-/-) slices were blocked by a CCK-2 receptor antagonist (CI-988), whereas those in wild-type slices required a mixture of CI-988 and lorglumide (a CCK-1 receptor antagonist) for complete antagonism. Therefore, CCK-1 and -2 receptors may function synergistically in single PaPo neurons and deletion of CCK-1 receptors may facilitate CCK-2 receptor signaling. This hypothesis was supported by results of real-time RT-PCR, immunofluorescence double labeling and Western blotting assays, which indicated CCK-2 receptor overexpression in PaPo neurons of CCK1R(-/-) mice. Furthermore, behavioral studies showed that intraperitoneal injections of lorglumide up-regulated food accesses in wild-type but not in CCK1R(-/-) mice, whereas CI-988 injections up-regulated food accesses in CCK1R(-/-) but not in wild-type mice. Compensatory CCK signaling via CCK-2 receptors in CCK1R(-/-) mice shed light on currently controversial satiety-controlling mechanisms.

Abstract
We and others have shown that gastrin-releasing peptide (GRP) reduces food intake. In this study, we determined the activation of the gastrointestinal and dorsal vagal complex (DVC) neurons by various forms of GRP to determine the pathway involved in this reduction. We found the following: (1) GRP-10, -27 and -29 (2.1 nmol/kg, i.p.) increased the Fos-like immunoreactivity (Fos-LI, a marker for neuronal activation) in the myenteric neurons of the stomach and the area postrema (AP) of the DVC; (2) GRP-27 and GRP-29 increased the Fos-LI in the myenteric plexus of the duodenum; and (3) only GRP-29 increased the Fos-LI in the submucosal plexus of the duodenum. In conclusion, GRP may reduce food intake by activating the area postrema. The enteric neurons may have a potential role in this reduction through the direct activation of the AP or exerting local gut actions, such as the stimulation of gut motility or secretions.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Entacapone is a promising drug used widely for the treatment of Parkinson's disease (PD) as a catechol-O-methyl transferase (COMT) inhibitor. However, entacapone has gastrointestinal side effects. The aim of this study was to investigate the effects of entacapone on the epithelial ion transport in rat distal colon, and explore the underlying mechanism. METHODS The study was performed on freshly isolated colonic mucosa-only, submucosa-only and mucosa-submucosa preparations in rat. The short circuit current (I(SC) ) was measured to determine electrogenic ion transport, and a scanning ion-selective electrode technique (SIET) was used to directly measure Cl(-) flux across the epithelium. The content of intracellular cAMP was measured with radioimmunoassay (RIA). KEY RESULTS Entacapone increased mucosal I(SC) in the rat distal colon. I(SC) was inhibited significantly by apical addition of diphenylamine-2,2'-dicarboxylic acid (DPC), a blocker of the Cl(-) channel, basolateral application of bumetanide, an inhibitor of Na(+) -K(+) -2Cl(-) co-transporter (NKCC), removal of Cl(-) from the bathing solution, and pretreatment with MDL 12330A, an inhibitor of adenylate cyclase. Inhibiting endogenous prostaglandin (PG) synthesis with indomethacin, and eliminating submucosal enteric neural activity with tetrodotoxin (TTX)-inhibited entacapone-evoked I(SC) increases. Similar results were also obtained when Cl(-) flux was measured with SIET. Entacapone significantly increased intracellular cAMP content, which was greatly inhibited by either indomethacin or TTX in the tissues containing submucosal plexus, and by only indomethacin in the mucosa-only preparations. CONCLUSIONS & INFERENCES Entacapone stimulates cAMP-dependent Cl(-) secretion in the rat colon, and this process is regulated by endogenous PG and the submucosal enteric nervous system.

Abstract
Camostat mesilate (or mesylate) releases endogenous cholecystokinin (CCK) or CCK-58, the only detectable endocrine form of CCK in the rat, and reduces cumulative food intake by activating CCK(1) receptor. However, the literature lacks meal pattern analysis and an appropriate dose-response curve for this peptide. Therefore, the current study determines meal size (MS), intermeal interval (IMI) and satiety ratio (SR) by orogastric gavage of camostat (0, 12.5, 25, 50, 100, 200, 300, 400, 800mg/kg) and compares them to those previously reported by a single dose of CCK-8 (1nmol/kg, i.p), the most utilized form of CCK. We found that camostat (200, 300, 400 and 800mg/kg) and CCK-8 reduced cumulative food intake and the size of the first meal, but only camostat prolonged IMI and increased SR. There was no change in the duration of the first two meals or in rated behaviors such as feeding, grooming, standing and resting in response to camostat and CCK-8, but there was more resting during the IMI in response to camostat. This study provides meal pattern analysis and an appropriate dose-response curve for camostat and CCK-8. Camostat reduces food intake by decreasing MS and prolonging IMI, whereas CCK-8 reduces food intake by reducing only meal size.

Abstract
There are various forms of the satiety gut-brain peptide cholecystokinin (CCK), a short, widely utilized form or CCK-8, and a long, putatively more effective form or CCK-33. The issue of which of these forms is a more effective satiety peptide is not resolved. Here, we compared the satiety responses, including the sizes of the first three meals (MS) and intermeal intervals (IMI) as well as their calculated satiety ratios (SR), evoked by both peptides. CCK-8 and 33 (1, 3 and 5 nmol/kg, i.p) reduced the size of the first meal similarly, only CCK-33 prolonged the first IMI and increased SR and both peptides failed to affect second and third MS and IMI. As such, CCK-33 is a more effective satiety peptide than CCK-8. The current results confirm previous findings which showed that both peptides reduce food intake by inhibiting meal size, whereas only CCK-33 reduces food intake by prolonging the intermeal interval.

Peptides 2011; 32:272-80.

Abstract
Cholecystokinin (CCK) activates the myenteric neurons of adult rats. The goal of this work is to determine the ontogeny of this activation by CCK-8 in the myenteric plexus of the duodenum (2cm immediately following the pyloric sphincter aborally) and compare it with that of the dorsal vagal complex (DVC) - which occurs in 1-day old pups. Despite the existence of both of the CCK receptors, CCK(1) and CCK(2), in 4, 14, 21 and 35 day old rats, CCK-8 (0, 5, 10, 20 and 40μg/kg, i.p.) increased Fos-like immunoreactivity (Fos-LI, a marker for neuronal activation) in the myenteric neurons of 21- and 35-day old rats but in the DVC of all age groups. As such, this belated activation of myenteric neurons by CCK-8 compared to the DVC may reflect a delayed role for these neurons in CCK-related functions.
