Systematic review: pain, cognition, and cardioprotection-unpacking oxytocin's contributions in a sport context. Front Physiol 2024; 15:1393497. [PMID: 38915776 PMCID: PMC11194439 DOI: 10.3389/fphys.2024.1393497] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 03/01/2024] [Accepted: 05/13/2024] [Indexed: 06/26/2024] Open
Abstract
Introduction This systematic review investigates the interplay between oxytocin and exercise; in terms of analgesic, anti-inflammatory, pro-regenerative, and cardioprotective effects. Furthermore, by analyzing measurement methods, we aim to improve measurement validity and reliability. Methods Utilizing PRISMA, GRADE, and MECIR protocols, we examined five databases with a modified SPIDER search. Including studies on healthy participants, published within the last 20 years, based on keywords "oxytocin," "exercise" and "measurement," 690 studies were retrieved initially (455 unique records). After excluding studies of clinically identifiable diseases, and unpublished and reproduction-focused studies, 175 studies qualified for the narrative cross-thematic and structural analysis. Results The analysis resulted in five categories showing the reciprocal impact of oxytocin and exercise: Exercise (50), Physiology (63), Environment (27), Social Context (65), and Stress (49). Exercise-induced oxytocin could promote tissue regeneration, with 32 studies showing its analgesic and anti-inflammatory effects, while 14 studies discussed memory and cognition. Furthermore, empathy-associated OXTR rs53576 polymorphism might influence team sports performance. Since dietary habits and substance abuse can impact oxytocin secretion too, combining self-report tests and repeated salivary measurements may help achieve precision. Discussion Oxytocin's effect on fear extinction and social cognition might generate strategies for mental training, and technical, and tactical development in sports. Exercise-induced oxytocin can affect the amount of stress experienced by athletes, and their response to it. However, oxytocin levels could depend on the type of sport in means of contact level, exercise intensity, and duration. The influence of oxytocin on athletes' performance and recovery could have been exploited due to its short half-life. Examining oxytocin's complex interactions with exercise paves the way for future research and application in sports science, psychology, and medical disciplines.

Abstract
During the past 30 yr, investigating the physiology of eating behaviors has generated a truly vast literature. This is fueled in part by a dramatic increase in obesity and its comorbidities that has coincided with an ever increasing sophistication of genetically based manipulations. These techniques have produced results with a remarkable degree of cell specificity, particularly at the cell signaling level, and have played a lead role in advancing the field. However, putting these findings into a brain-wide context that connects physiological signals and neurons to behavior and somatic physiology requires a thorough consideration of neuronal connections: a field that has also seen an extraordinary technological revolution. Our goal is to present a comprehensive and balanced assessment of how physiological signals associated with energy homeostasis interact at many brain levels to control eating behaviors. A major theme is that these signals engage sets of interacting neural networks throughout the brain that are defined by specific neural connections. We begin by discussing some fundamental concepts, including ones that still engender vigorous debate, that provide the necessary frameworks for understanding how the brain controls meal initiation and termination. These include key word definitions, ATP availability as the pivotal regulated variable in energy homeostasis, neuropeptide signaling, homeostatic and hedonic eating, and meal structure. Within this context, we discuss network models of how key regions in the endbrain (or telencephalon), hypothalamus, hindbrain, medulla, vagus nerve, and spinal cord work together with the gastrointestinal tract to enable the complex motor events that permit animals to eat in diverse situations.

Role of TRPV1/TRPV3 channels in olanzapine-induced metabolic alteration: Possible involvement in hypothalamic energy-sensing, appetite regulation, inflammation and mesolimbic pathway. Toxicol Appl Pharmacol 2020; 402:115124. [PMID: 32652086 DOI: 10.1016/j.taap.2020.115124] [Citation(s) in RCA: 10] [Impact Index Per Article: 2.5] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 02/15/2020] [Revised: 06/15/2020] [Accepted: 06/19/2020] [Indexed: 12/30/2022]
Abstract
Atypical antipsychotics (AAPs) have the tendency of inducing severe metabolic alterations like obesity, diabetes mellitus, insulin resistance, dyslipidemia and cardiovascular complications. These alterations have been attributed to altered hypothalamic appetite regulation, energy sensing, insulin/leptin signaling, inflammatory reactions and active reward anticipation. Line of evidence suggests that transient receptor potential vanilloid type 1 and 3 (TRPV1 and TRPV3) channels are emerging targets in treatment of obesity, diabetes mellitus and could modulate feed intake. The present study was aimed to investigate the putative role TRPV1/TRPV3 in olanzapine-induced metabolic alterations in mice. Female BALB/c mice were treated with olanzapine for six weeks to induce metabolic alterations. Non-selective TRPV1/TRPV3 antagonist (ruthenium red) and selective TRPV1 (capsazepine) and TRPV3 antagonists (2,2-diphenyltetrahydrofuran or DPTHF) were used to investigate the involvement of TRPV1/TRPV3 in chronic olanzapine-induced metabolic alterations. These metabolic alterations were differentially reversed by ruthenium red and capsazepine, while DPTHF didn't show any significant effect. Olanzapine treatment also altered the mRNA expression of hypothalamic appetite-regulating and nutrient-sensing factors, inflammatory genes and TRPV1/TRPV3, which were reversed with ruthenium red and capsazepine treatment. Furthermore, olanzapine treatment also increased expression of TRPV1/TRPV3 in nucleus accumbens (NAc), TRPV3 expression in ventral tegmental area (VTA), which were reversed by the respective antagonists. However, DPTHF treatment showed reduced feed intake in olanzapine treated mice, which might be due to TRPV3 specific antagonism and reduced hedonic feed intake. In conclusion, our results suggested the putative role TRPV1 in hypothalamic dysregulations and TRPV3 in the mesolimbic pathway; both regulate feeding in olanzapine treated mice.

Abstract
SIGNIFICANCE STATEMENT Gastric vagal afferent responses to tension are dampened in high fat diet-induced obesity. Endocannabinoids are known to dose-dependently inhibit and excite gastric vagal afferents but their effect on gastric vagal afferents in diet-induced obesity are unknown. In individual gastric vagal afferent neurons of diet-induced obese mice the co-expression of components of the endocannabinoid system, including CB1, GHSR, TRPV1 and FAAH, was increased compared with lean mice. In high fat diet-induced obese mice, methanandamide only inhibited gastric vagal afferent responses to tension, possibly due to the observed change in the balance of receptors, hormones and breakdown enzymes in this system. Collectively, these data suggest that endocannabinoid signalling, by gastric vagal afferents, is altered in diet-induced obesity which may impact satiety and gastrointestinal function. ABSTRACT Gastric vagal afferents (GVAs) play a role in appetite regulation. The endocannabinoid anandamide (AEA) dose-dependently inhibits and excites tension-sensitive GVAs. However, it is also known that high fat diet (HFD) feeding alters GVA responses to stretch. The aim of this study was to determine the role of AEA in GVA signalling in lean and HFD-induced obese mice. Male C57BL/6 mice were fed (12 weeks) a standard laboratory diet (SLD) or HFD. Protein and mRNA expression of components of the cannabinoid system was determined in individual GVA cell bodies and the gastric mucosa. An in vitro GVA preparation was used to assess the effect of methanandamide (mAEA) on tension-sensitive GVAs and the second messenger pathways involved. In individual GVA cell bodies, cannabinoid 1 (CB1) and ghrelin (GHSR) receptor mRNA was higher in HFD mice than SLD mice. Conversely, gastric mucosal AEA and ghrelin protein levels were lower in HFD mice than SLD mice. In SLD mice, mAEA exerted dose-dependent inhibitory and excitatory effects on tension-sensitive GVAs. Only an inhibitory effect of mAEA was observed in HFD mice. The excitatory effect of mAEA was dependent on CB1, transient receptor potential vanilloid 1 (TRPV1) and the protein kinase C. Conversely, the inhibitory effect was dependent on CB1, growth hormone secretagogue receptor, TRPV1 and the protein kinase A. Endocannabinoids, acting through CB1 and TRPV1, have a pivotal role in modulating GVA satiety signals depending on the second messenger pathway utilised. In HFD mice only an inhibitory effect was observed. These changes may contribute to the development and/or maintenance of obesity.

Abstract
Transient receptor potential vanilloid type 1 (TRPV1) channels are emerging therapeutic targets for metabolic disorders. Berberine, which is a modulator of TRPV1, has proven antiobesity and antidiabetic potentials. The present study was aimed to investigate the protective effects of berberine in olanzapine-induced alterations in hypothalamic appetite control, inflammation and metabolic aberrations in mice targeting TRPV1 channels. Female BALB/c mice (18-23 g) were treated with olanzapine (6 mg/kg, p.o.) for six weeks to induce metabolic alterations, while berberine (100 and 200 mg/kg, p.o.) and metformin (100 mg/kg, p.o) were used as test and standard interventions respectively. Weekly assessment of feed-water intake, body temperature and body weight was done, while locomotion was measured at the end of week 1 and 6. Serum glucose and lipid profile were assessed by biochemical methods, while other serum biomarkers were assessed by ELISA. qPCR was used to quantify the mRNA expression in the hypothalamus. Olanzapine treatment significantly increased the feed intake, weight gain, adiposity index, while reduced body temperature and locomotor activity which were reversed by berberine treatment. Berberine treatment reduced serum ghrelin and leptin levels as well decrease in hypothalamic mRNA expression of orexigenic neuropeptides, inflammatory markers and ghrelin receptor in olanzapine-treated mice. Olanzapine treatment increased expression of TRPV1/TRPV3 in the hypothalamus which was significantly decreased by berberine treatment. Our results suggest that berberine, by TRPV1/TRPV3 modulation, attenuated the olanzapine-induced metabolic alterations in mice. Hence berberine supplementation in psychiatric patients could be a preventive approach to reduce the metabolic adverse effects of antipsychotics.

Abstract
KEY POINTS The fine control of food intake is important for the maintenance of a healthy metabolic state. Gastric vagal afferents (GVAs) are involved in the peripheral regulation of food intake via signalling the degree of distension of the stomach which ultimately leads to feelings of fullness and satiety. This study provides evidence that endocannabinoids such as anandamide are capable of regulating GVA sensitivity in a concentration-dependent biphasic manner. This biphasic effect is dependent upon interactions between the CB1, TRPV1 and GHSR receptors. These data have important implications for the peripheral control of food intake. ABSTRACT Gastric vagal afferents (GVAs) signal to the hindbrain resulting in satiety. Endocannabinoids are endogenous ligands of cannabinoid 1 receptor (CB1) and transient receptor potential vanilloid-1 (TRPV1) channels. The endocannabinoid anandamide (AEA) is expressed in the stomach, and its receptor CB1 is expressed in ghrelin-positive gastric mucosal cells. Further, TRPV1, CB1 and growth hormone secretagogue receptor (ghrelin receptor, GHSR) are expressed in subpopulations of GVA neurons. This study aimed to determine the interaction between TRPV1, CB1, GHSR and endocannabinoids in the modulation of GVA signalling. An in vitro electrophysiology preparation was used to assess GVA mechanosensitivity in male C57BL/6 mice. Effects of methanandamide (mAEA; 1-100 nm), on GVA responses to stretch were determined in the absence and presence of antagonists of CB1, TRPV1, GHSR, protein kinase-A (PKA), protein kinase-C (PKC) and G-protein subunits Gαi/o , or Gαq . Low doses (1-10 nm) of mAEA reduced GVA responses to 3 g stretch, whereas high doses (30-100 nm) increased the response. The inhibitory and excitatory effects of mAEA (1-100 nm) were reduced/lost in the presence of a CB1 and TRPV1 antagonist. PKA, Gαi/o or GHSR antagonists prevented the inhibitory effect of mAEA on GVA mechanosensitivity. Conversely, in the presence of a PKC or Gαq antagonist the excitatory effect of mAEA was reduced or lost, respectively. Activation of CB1, by mAEA, can activate or inhibit TRPV1 to increase or decrease GVA responses to stretch, depending on the pathway activated. These interactions could play an important role in the fine control of food intake.

Abstract
Ghrelin is a peptide mainly produced and secreted by the stomach. Since its discovery, the impact of ghrelin on the regulation of food intake has been the most studied function of this hormone; however, ghrelin affects a wide range of physiological systems, many of which are controlled by the hypothalamic paraventricular nucleus (PVN). Several pathways may mediate the effects of ghrelin on PVN neurons, such as direct or indirect effects mediated by circumventricular organs and/or the arcuate nucleus. The ghrelin receptor is expressed in PVN neurons, and the peripheral or intracerebroventricular administration of ghrelin affects PVN neuronal activity. Intra-PVN application of ghrelin increases food intake and decreases fat oxidation, which chronically contribute to the increased adiposity. Additionally, ghrelin modulates the neuroendocrine axes controlled by the PVN, increasing the release of vasopressin and oxytocin by magnocellular neurons and corticotropin-releasing hormone by neuroendocrine parvocellular neurons, while possibly inhibiting the release of thyrotropin-releasing hormone. Thus, the PVN is an important target for the actions of ghrelin. Our review discusses the mechanisms of ghrelin actions in the PVN, and its potential implications for energy balance, neuroendocrine, and integrative physiological control.

Abstract
The ion channel TRPV1 is involved in a wide range of processes including nociception, thermosensation and, more recently discovered, energy homeostasis. Tightly controlling energy homeostasis is important to maintain a healthy body weight, or to aid in weight loss by expending more energy than energy intake. TRPV1 may be involved in energy homeostasis, both in the control of food intake and energy expenditure. In the periphery, it is possible that TRPV1 can impact on appetite through control of appetite hormone levels or via modulation of gastrointestinal vagal afferent signaling. Further, TRPV1 may increase energy expenditure via heat production. Dietary supplementation with TRPV1 agonists, such as capsaicin, has yielded conflicting results with some studies indicating a reduction in food intake and increase in energy expenditure, and other studies indicating the converse. Nonetheless, it is increasingly apparent that TRPV1 may be dysregulated in obesity and contributing to the development of this disease. The mechanisms behind this dysregulation are currently unknown but interactions with other systems, such as the endocannabinoid systems, could be altered and therefore play a role in this dysregulation. Further, TRPV1 channels appear to be involved in pancreatic insulin secretion. Therefore, given its plausible involvement in regulation of energy and glucose homeostasis and its dysregulation in obesity, TRPV1 may be a target for weight loss therapy and diabetes. However, further research is required too fully elucidate TRPV1s role in these processes. The review provides an overview of current knowledge in this field and potential areas for development.

Abstract
Spontaneous glutamate release in the supraoptic nucleus is modulated by a number of inhibitory G protein coupled receptors (GPCR), including GABAB , adenosine A1 and group III metabotropic glutamate receptors (mGluR). It remains unclear whether they have distinct roles or are redundant mechanisms that protect from hyperexcitation. To address this question, we facilitated spontaneous glutamate release using nifedipine or forskolin, which act in a protein kinase A (PKA)-independent and -dependent manner, respectively, and tested the effects of inhibitory GPCR agonists. We found that a GABAB receptor (GABAB R) agonist specifically inhibited forskolin-induced miniature excitatory postsynaptic currents (mEPSC), in contrast to an adenosine A1 receptor (A1R) agonist, which specifically inhibited nifedipine-induced mEPSCs. This suggests that GABAB Rs and A1 Rs modulate independent mechanisms activated by forskolin and nifedipine, respectively. However, the inhibitory effects of GABAB R and A1 R agonists on basal mEPSCs occluded each other, suggesting that these receptors also have an overlapping role. Group III mGluRs appear to have a greater control over glutamate release because agonists to these receptors inhibited both nifedipine- and forskolin-induced mEPSCs. mEPSCs induced by norepinephrine had the same characteristics as those induced by forskolin [i.e. PKA-dependence and sensitivity to GABAB R and group III mGluR agonists, but not an A1 R agonist]. In summary, the present study highlights the differential effects of GABAB R, A1 R and mGluR agonists on glutamate release stimulated by different secretagogues, including the endogenous neuromodulator norepinephrine. These results suggest that the roles of these inhibitory GPCRs are not completely redundant, and also indicate the physiological implications of having different excitatory and inhibitory GPCRs on the same synapse.

Abstract
Kisspeptin is the natural ligand of the G protein-coupled receptor -54 and plays a major role in gonadotropin-releasing hormone secretion in the hypothalamus. Kisspeptin-10 is an endogenous derivative of kisspeptin and has 10 -amino acids. Previous studies have demonstrated that central administration of kisspeptin-10 stimulates the secretion of arginine vasopressin (AVP) in male rats. We examined the effects of kisspeptin-10 on- excitatory synaptic inputs to magnocellular neurosecretory cells (MNCs) including AVP neurons in the supraoptic nucleus (SON) by obtaining in vitro whole-cell patch-clamp recordings from slice preparations of the rat brain. The application of kisspeptin-10 (100 nM-1 μM) significantly increased the frequency of miniature excitatory postsynaptic currents (mEPSCs) in a dose-related manner without affecting the amplitude. The kisspeptin-10-induced potentiation of the mEPSCs was significantly attenuated by previous exposure to the kisspeptin receptor antagonist kisspeptin-234 (100 nM) and to the protein kinase C inhibitor bisindolylmaleimide I (20 nM). These results suggest that kisspeptin-10 participates in the regulation of synaptic inputs to the MNCs in the SON by interacting with the kisspeptin receptor.

Abstract
Neurons in the supraoptic nuclei (SON) produce oxytocin and vasopressin and express insulin receptors (InsR) and glucokinase. Since oxytocin is an anorexigenic agent and glucokinase and InsR are hallmarks of cells that function as glucose and/or metabolic sensors, we evaluated the effect of glucose, insulin, and their downstream effector ATP-sensitive potassium (KATP) channels on calcium signaling in SON neurons and on oxytocin and vasopressin release from explants of the rat hypothalamo-neurohypophyseal system. We also evaluated the effect of blocking glucokinase and phosphatidylinositol 3 kinase (PI3K; mediates insulin-induced mobilization of glucose transporter, GLUT4) on responses to glucose and insulin. Glucose and insulin increased intracellular calcium ([Ca(2+)]i). The responses were glucokinase and PI3K dependent, respectively. Insulin and glucose alone increased vasopressin release (P < 0.002). Oxytocin release was increased by glucose in the presence of insulin. The oxytocin (OT) and vasopressin (VP) responses to insulin+glucose were blocked by the glucokinase inhibitor alloxan (4 mM; P ≤ 0.002) and the PI3K inhibitor wortmannin (50 nM; OT: P = 0.03; VP: P ≤ 0.002). Inactivating K ATP channels with 200 nM glibenclamide increased oxytocin and vasopressin release (OT: P < 0.003; VP: P < 0.05). These results suggest that insulin activation of PI3K increases glucokinase-mediated ATP production inducing closure of K ATP channels, opening of voltage-sensitive calcium channels, and stimulation of oxytocin and vasopressin release. The findings are consistent with SON oxytocin and vasopressin neurons functioning as glucose and "metabolic" sensors to participate in appetite regulation.

Abstract
Energy homoeostasis, a co-ordinated balance of food intake and energy expenditure, is regulated by the CNS (central nervous system). The past decade has witnessed significant advances in our understanding of metabolic processes and brain circuitry which responds to a broad range of neural, nutrient and hormonal signals. Accumulating evidence demonstrates altered synaptic plasticity in the CNS in response to hormone signals. Moreover, emerging observations suggest that synaptic plasticity underlies all brain functions, including the physiological regulation of energy homoeostasis, and that impaired synaptic constellation and plasticity may lead to pathological development and conditions. Here, we summarize the current knowledge on the regulation of postsynaptic receptors such as AMPA (α-amino-3-hydroxy-5-methylisoxazole-4-propionic acid), NMDA (N-methyl-D-aspartate) and GABA (γ-aminobutyric acid) receptors, and the presynaptic components by hormone signals. A detailed understanding of the neurobiological mechanisms by which hormones regulate energy homoeostasis may lead to novel strategies in treating metabolic disorders.

Abstract
Diabetic encephalopathy is clinically characterized by acquired behavior and cognitive dysfunction but its pathogenesis is not clear. This study aimed to explore the pathogenesis of diabetic encephalopathy and the mechanisms of ghrelin to ameliorate cognitive dysfunction in diabetic rats. Thirty-six streptozotocin diabetic rat models were established; 12 weeks later, all the rats were randomly divided into 3 groups [diabetic model group (D), ghrelin treatment group (T1), and ghrelin and D-lys-3-GHRP-6 treatment group (T2)] of 12 each. Twelve normoglycemic rats were classified in the normal group (N). Learning and memory behaviors were measured using a spatial version of the Morris water maze test. The brain-derived neurotrophic factor (BDNF), cAMP responsive element binding protein (CREB), phosphorylated CREB (p-CREB), phosphorylated ERK1/2 (p-ERK1/2), caspase-3, and Bcl-xl protein expressions in the hippocampi of all the rats were detected using immunohistochemistry. The mRNA expressions of BDNF, CREB, and caspase-3 were examined using reverse transcription-polymerase chain reaction. The hippocampus neuronal apoptosis was measured by terminal deoxynucleotidyl transferase dUTP nick end labeling method. We found that learning and memory level in the ghrelin treatment group improved significantly, expression of Bcl-xl, BDNF, CREB, p-CREB, and p-ERK1/2 in the hippocampus was increased in the ghrelin treatment group, and the number of apoptotic neurons in the hippocampus decreased remarkably. Our results showed that the changes of BDNF, CREB, and hippocampus neuronal apoptosis might be involved in the pathogenesis of diabetic encephalopathy. We suggested that ghrelin improved cognitive ability in streptozotocin-induced diabetic rats by improving the expressions of BDNF and CREB and by attenuating hippocampus neuronal apoptosis. The effects of ghrelin depend on the receptor of ghrelin, GHSR-1a, and ERK1/2 pathway.

Abstract
Release of arginine vasopressin (AVP) and oxytocin from magnocellular neurosecretory cells (MNCs) of the supraoptic nucleus (SON) is under the control of glutamate-dependent excitation and GABA-dependent inhibition. The possible role of the synaptic terminals attached to SON neurones has been investigated using whole-cell patch-clamp recording in in vitro rat brain slice preparations. Recent evidence has provided new insights into the repercussions of glial environment modifications on the physiology of MNCs at the synaptic level in the SON. In the present study, excitatory glutamatergic and inhibitory GABAergic synaptic inputs were recorded from an isolated single SON neurone cultured for 12 h, using the whole-cell patch clamp technique. Neurones expressed an AVP-enhanced green fluorescent protein (eGFP) fusion gene in MNCs. In addition, native synaptic terminals attached to a dissociated AVP-eGFP neurone were visualised with synaptic vesicle markers. These results suggest that the function of presynaptic nerve terminals may be evaluated directly in a single AVP-eGFP neurone. These preparations would be helpful in future studies aiming to electrophysiologically distinguish between the functions of synaptic terminals and glial modifications in the SON neurones.
