Effect of compound‐A on feeding‐relating peptide gene expression in the brain of DIO‐F344 rats. DIO‐F344 rats under ad libitum (Ad lib) conditions were fasted for 16 hr (Fast) and then orally administered with vehicle or compound‐A (30 mg/kg). At 1 hr after dosing, the brain samples were dissected and mRNA level listed in Table 2 was measured. (a–k) The expression levels of Crh (a), Oxt (b), and Avp (c) in the PVH, Pomc (d), Cart (e), Npy (f), and Agrp (g) in ARC, Pmch (h), Hcrt (i), and Cart (j) in the LHA, and Cart (k) mRNA in the NTS were measured via quantitative RT‐PCR. The mRNA expression of each gene was normalized to that of cyclophilin. Results are presented as mean values ± standard deviation (n = 5–6). § p < .05 versus vehicle (Ad lib), *p < .05 versus vehicle (Fast) (Student's t test)
