Central administration of SPX on hypothalamic expression of anorexigenic factors and their receptors. ICV injection of SPX (1 nmole/mouse) was conducted in mice with parallel injection of artificial CSF as control treatment. The hypothalamus was harvested at different time points and used for total RNA isolation followed by real-time PCR for transcript expression of CART (A), POMC (B), CRH (C), SPX (D), LepR (E) and MC4R (F), respectively. In this study, β actin mRNA was used as the internal control. The groups denoted by different letters represent a significant difference at p < 0.05.
