Abstract
That nesfatin-1 is a neuromodulatory peptide for the cardiovascular system is well documented. Several central receptors have been shown to mediate the cardiovascular effects of nesfatin-1. Immunohistochemistry and Western blot studies showed that nesfatin-1 activated the expression of the central cyclooxygenase (COX) -1, -2 and lipoxygenase (LOX). In addition, microdialysis study showed that nesfatin-1 increased the release of total prostaglandins and leukotrienes from the hypothalamus. The present study investigated whether the central COX and LOX enzymes have a direct mediating role in the MAP and HR responses of nesfatin-1.
