Central and local (enteric) action of orexins Korczynski W; Ceregrzyn M; Matyjek R; Kato I; Kuwahara A; Wolinski J; Zabielski RJ Physiol Pharmacol 2006[Nov]; 57 Suppl 6 (ä): 17-42Orexin-A (OXA, hypocretin-1) and orexin-B (OXB, hypocretin-2) are peptides derived from the same 130 amino acid long precursor (prepro-orexin) that bind and activate two closely related orphan G protein-coupled receptors. Orexins and their receptors were first discovered in the rat brain, and soon after that in peripheral neural structures, including the vagal nerve and enteric nervous system, and in other structures involving the gastrointestinal tract diffuse neuroendocrine system, pancreas tissue, stomach and intestinal mucosa. Orexins and their receptors were also demonstrated in the testes, adrenals, kidneys, and placenta. This review is focused on central and enteric actions. Originally, orexins were considered to be neurotransmitters that centrally stimulate food intake in animals and humans, but it soon became evident that their action is broader due to activation of a large number of neuronal pathways involved in energy homeostasis, sleep-awake behavior, nociception reward seeking, food and drug addiction, as well as reproduction, cardiovascular and adrenal function. In the gastrointestinal tract, orexins have been found so far to affect gastrointestinal motility and gastric, intestinal and pancreatic secretions. The effects were observed following central (intraventricular) or local (intraluminal, intraarterial), but not peripheral (intravenous), administrations of orexins. Since the expression of orexins in the gastrointestinal tract is enhanced during fasting, and fasting reveals many of the orexin gastrointestinal effects, it seems probable that on the local level, orexins keep the gastrointestinal tract functions ready during fasting and play role in brain-gut axis control.|Amino Acid Sequence[MESH]|Animals[MESH]|Gastrointestinal Tract/metabolism/*physiology[MESH]|Humans[MESH]|Intracellular Signaling Peptides and Proteins/metabolism/*physiology[MESH]|Molecular Sequence Data[MESH]|Neuropeptides/metabolism/*physiology[MESH]|Orexin Receptors[MESH]|Orexins[MESH]|Receptors, G-Protein-Coupled/metabolism/physiology[MESH]|Receptors, Neuropeptide/metabolism/physiology[MESH] |
