The calorie intake, body weight, and the Arc mRNA expressions after 4‐wk treatment and the c‐fos expression in the brain area of Arc, DMH, and LHA after 60‐min treatment
Control | Risperidone | Risperidone + Lorcaserin | Lorcaserin | |
---|---|---|---|---|
Body weight (g) | 19.6 ± 0.231* | 20.6 ± 0.216 | 19.6 ± 0.265** | 18.5 ± 0.173*** |
Calorie intake (kcal) | 8.6 ± 0.363* | 10 ± 0.209 | 8.7 ± 0.183** | 7.7 ± 0.107*** |
c‐Fos in the Arc | 43.6 ± 3.572# | 73.6 ± 4.02 | / | / |
c‐Fos in the DMH | 42 ± 2.775# | 115 ± 6.066 | / | / |
c‐Fos in the LHA | 35 ± 4.946# | 70.8 ± 5.389 | / | / |
mRNA in the Arc | 22.4 ± 1.749* | 32.2 ± 2.634 | 22.6 ± 1.536** | 13.4 ± 0.927*** |
Data are means ± SEM, n = 4‐6 for each group. The differences were determined by either one‐way ANOVA with Tukey post hoc test for body weight and calorie intake or unpair t test for c‐fos analysis.
