Abstract
Objective: Stressed individuals tend to turn to calorie-rich food, also known as 'comfort food' for the temporary relief it provides. The emotional eating drive is highly variable among subjects. Using a rodent model, we explored the plasmatic and neurobiological differences between 'high and low emotional eaters' (HEE and LEE).Methods: 40 male mice were exposed for 5 weeks to a protocol of unpredictable chronic mild stress. Every 3 or 4 days, they were submitted to a 1-h restraint stress, immediately followed by a 3-h period during which a choice between chow and chocolate sweet cereals was proposed. The dietary intake was measured by weighing. Plasmatic and neurobiological characteristics were compared in mice displaying high vs low intakes.Results: Out of 40 mice, 8 were considered as HEE because of their high post-stress eating score, and 8 as LEE because of their consistent low intake. LEE displayed higher plasma corticosterone and lower levels of NPY than HEE, but acylated and total ghrelin were similar in both groups. In the brain, the abundance of NPY neurons in the arcuate nucleus of the hypothalamus was similar in both groups, but was higher in the ventral hippocampus and the basal lateral amygdala of LEE. The lateral hypothalamus LEE had also more orexin (OX) positive neurons. Both NPY and OX are orexigenic peptides and mood regulators.Discussion: Emotional eating difference was reflected in plasma and brain structures implicated in emotion and eating regulation. These results concur with the psychological side of food consumption.

CO 2 exposure enhances Fos expression in hypothalamic neurons in rats during the light and dark phases of the diurnal cycle. Brain Struct Funct 2022; 227:2667-2679.

Abstract
Orexinergic (OX) neurons in the lateral hypothalamus (LH), perifornical area (PFA) and dorsomedial hypothalamus (DMH) play a role in the hypercapnic ventilatory response, presumably through direct inputs to central pattern generator sites and/or through interactions with other chemosensitive regions. OX neurons can produce and release orexins, excitatory neuropeptides involved in many functions, including physiological responses to changes in CO2/pH. Thus, in the present study, we tested the hypothesis that different nuclei (LH, PFA and DMH) where the orexinergic neurons are located, show distinct activation by CO2 during the light-dark cycle phases. For this purpose, we evaluated the Fos and OXA expression by immunohistochemistry to identify neurons that co-localize Fos + OXA in the LH, LPeF, MPeF and DMH in the light-inactive and dark-active phase in Wistar rats subjected to 3 h of normocapnia or hypercapnia (7% CO2). Quantitative analyses of immunoreactive neurons show that hypercapnia caused an increase in the number of neurons expressing Fos in the LH, LPeF, MPeF and DMH in the light and dark phases. In addition, the number of Fos + OXA neurons increased in the LPeF and DMH independently of the phases of the diurnal cycle; whereas in the MPeF, this increase was observed exclusively in the light phase. Thus, we suggest that OX neurons are selectively activated by hypercapnia throughout the diurnal cycle, reinforcing the differential role of nuclei in the hypothalamus during central chemosensitivity.

Abstract
Hypothalamic neurons that produce the peptide transmitters orexins/hypocretins (HONs) broadcast their predominantly neuroexcitatory outputs to the entire brain via their extremely wide axonal projections. HONs were originally reported to be activated by food deprivation, and to stimulate arousal, energy expenditure, and eating. This led to extensive studies of HONs in the context of nutrient-sensing and energy balance control. While activation of HONs by body energy depletion continues to be supported by experimental evidence, it has also become clear that HONs are robustly activated not only by nutrient depletion, but also by diverse sensory stimuli (both neutral and those associated with rewarding or aversive events), seemingly unrelated to each other or to energy balance. One theory that could unify these findings is that all these stimuli signal "stress" - defined either as a potentially harmful state, or an awareness of reward deficiency. If HON activity is conceptualized as a cumulative representation of stress, then many of the reported HONs outputs - including EEG arousal, sympathetic activation, place avoidance, and exploratory behaviours - could be viewed as logical stress-counteracting responses. We discuss evidence for and against this unifying theory of HON function, including the alterations in HON activity observed in anxiety and depression disorders. We propose that, in order to orchestrate stress-countering responses, HONs need to coactivate motivation and aversion brain systems, and the impact of HON stimulation on affective states may be perceived as rewarding or aversive depending on the baseline HON activity.

Abstract
Baroreflex sensitivity (BRS) is an important function of the nervous system and essential for maintaining blood pressure levels in the physiological range. In hypertension, BRS is decreased both in man and animals. Although increased sympathetic activity is thought to be the main cause of decreased BRS, hence the development of hypertension, the BRS is regulated by both sympathetic (SNS) and parasympathetic (PNS) nervous system. Here, we analyzed neuropeptide changes in the lateral hypothalamus (LH), which favours the SNS activity, as well as in PNS nuclei in the brainstem of spontaneously hypertensive rats (SHR) and their normotensive controls (Wistar Kyoto rats- WKY). The analyses revealed that in the WKY rats the hypothalamic orexin system, known for its role in sympathetic activation, showed a substantial decrease when animals age. At the same time, however, such a decrease was not observed when hypertension developed in the SHR. In contrast, Neuropeptide FF (NPFF) and Prolactin Releasing Peptide (PrRP) expression in the PNS associated Nucleus Tractus Solitarius (NTS) and Dorsal Motor Nucleus of the Vagus (DMV) diminished substantially, not only after the establishment of hypertension but also before its onset. Therefore, the current results indicate early changes in areas of the central nervous system involved in SNS and PNS control of blood pressure and associated with the development of hypertension.

Abstract
Central orexinergic system contributes to the regulation of cardiovascular function. Orexinergic neurons receiving projections of nerve fibers from multiple structures of brain which involved in control and regulation of cardiovascular function locate in hypothalamus, and their axon terminals widely project to various central structures where orexins receptors are expressed. Here, we summarize the present knowledge that describes the influence of central orexinergic system on cardiovascular activity, the relevance of dysfunction in central orexinergic system with hypertension and psychological stress induced cardiovascular reactivity which are serious risk factors for cardiovascular disease and cardiovascular death. We propose that central orexinergic system may be potentially important targets for the prevention of cardiovascular disease and cardiovascular death, and different orexinergic system involved neuronal circuits may be involved in distinct cardiovascular functions. Acupuncture having bidirectional regulatory ability and a much lower incidence of side effects can prevent disease. We review the improvement of acupuncture on hypertension and psychological stress induced cardiovascular reactivity. We think that acupuncture intervenes hypertension and psychological stress induced cardiovascular reactivity to prevent cardiovascular disease and cardiovascular death. We also summarize relation between acupuncture and central orexinergic system. We propose a hypothesis that acupuncture improve hypertension and psychological stress induced cardiovascular reactivity through regulating central orexinergic system. The knowledge is beneficial for the development of potential therapeutic targets and methods to prevent cardiovascular disease and cardiovascular death.

Abstract
With the coming acceleration of global population aging, the incidence rate of cardio-cerebrovascular diseases (CVDs) is increasing. It has become the leading cause of human mortality. As a natural drug, borneol (BO) not only has anti-inflammatory, anti-oxidant, anti-apoptotic, anti-coagulant activities and improves energy metabolism but can also promote drugs to enter the target organs or tissues through various physiological barriers, such as the blood-brain barrier (BBB), mucous membrane, skin. Thus, it has a significant therapeutic effect on various CVDs, which has been confirmed in a large number of studies. However, the pharmacological actions and mechanisms of BO on CVDs have not been fully investigated. Hence, this review summarizes the pharmacological actions and possible mechanisms of BO, which provides novel ideas for the treatment of CVDs.

Abstract
Neurogenic hypertension is associated with excessive sympathetic nerve activity to the kidneys and portions of the cardiovascular system. Here we examine the brain regions that cause heightened sympathetic nerve activity in animal models of neurogenic hypertension, and we discuss the triggers responsible for the changes in neuronal activity within these regions. We highlight the limitations of the evidence and, whenever possible, we briefly address the pertinence of the findings to human hypertension. The arterial baroreflex reduces arterial blood pressure variability and contributes to the arterial blood pressure set point. This set point can also be elevated by a newly described cerebral blood flow-dependent and astrocyte-mediated sympathetic reflex. Both reflexes converge on the presympathetic neurons of the rostral medulla oblongata, and both are plausible causes of neurogenic hypertension. Sensory afferent dysfunction (reduced baroreceptor activity, increased renal, or carotid body afferent) contributes to many forms of neurogenic hypertension. Neurogenic hypertension can also result from activation of brain nuclei or sensory afferents by excess circulating hormones (leptin, insulin, Ang II [angiotensin II]) or sodium. Leptin raises blood vessel sympathetic nerve activity by activating the carotid bodies and subsets of arcuate neurons. Ang II works in the lamina terminalis and probably throughout the brain stem and hypothalamus. Sodium is sensed primarily in the lamina terminalis. Regardless of its cause, the excess sympathetic nerve activity is mediated to some extent by activation of presympathetic neurons located in the rostral ventrolateral medulla or the paraventricular nucleus of the hypothalamus. Increased activity of the orexinergic neurons also contributes to hypertension in selected models.

Abstract
Epidemiologic studies have shown that sleep disorders are associated with the development of hypertension. The present study investigated dynamic changes in sleep patterns during the development of hypertension across the lifespan in spontaneously hypertensive rats (SHRs) and the neural mechanism that underlies these comorbidities, with a focus on the orexinergic system. Blood pressure in rats was measured using a noninvasive blood pressure tail cuff. Sleep was monitored by electroencephalographic and electromyographic recordings. Immunohistochemistry was used to detect the density and activity of orexinergic neurons in the perifornical nucleus. Hcrt2-SAP (400 or 800 ng) was microinjected in the lateral hypothalamus to lesion orexinergic neurons. Compared with Wistar-Kyoto rats, SHRs exhibited various patterns of sleep disturbances. In SHRs, dynamic changes in hypersomnia in the rats' active phase was not synchronized with the development of hypertension, but hyperarousal in the inactive phase and difficulties in falling asleep were observed concurrently with the development of hypertension. Furthermore, the density and activity of orexinergic neurons in the perifornical nucleus were significantly higher in SHRs than in age-matched Wistar-Kyoto rats. The reduction of orexinergic neurons in the lateral hypothalamus partially ameliorated the development of hypertension and prevented difficulties in falling asleep in SHRs. These results indicate that although the correlation between sleep disturbances and hypertension is very complex, common mechanisms may underlie these comorbidities in SHRs. Overactivity of the orexin system may be one such common mechanism.

Abstract
Objective: Orexins (hypocretins) are neuropeptides expressed in hypothalamic neurons and have regulatory roles in feeding/drinking behaviours, endocrine functions and sleep/wakefulness state. Major depressive disorder (MDD) is a major mood disorder and neurotransmitter dysfunction in hypothalamic neurons may have roles in its formation. Hence, we conducted experiments to determine whether orexin receptor 1 and 2 (Orx1, Orx2) genes were associated with MDD development. Methods: Seventy-five MDD patients and 87 healthy controls were enrolled for the study. Genotyping was carried out with real-time polymerase chain reaction (RT-PCR). Hamilton Rating-Scale for Depression (HRSD) and Beck Depression Inventory (BDI) were utilized to evaluate depressive symptom severity. Results: A significant relation was found in genotype frequencies of Orx1 rs10914456 and rs2271933 variants between MDD patients and controls (p = .009, p = .006). Rs10914456 CC genotype increased MDD risk 3.57 times more than carrying other genotypes (p = .008, OR =3.57;95% CI: 1.39-9.14). However, no association was observed in Orx2 rs2653349 genotypes for MDD development (p > .05). Although statistically not significant, HRSD scores were diminished in MDD subjects carrying rs10914456 CC variants when compared with CT and TT variants (p = .069). Conclusion. This study suggests that, Orx1 rs10914456 and rs2271933 can be associated with MDD development. Hence, Orx1 rs10914456 variants may affect depressive symptom severity.

Abstract
The hypothalamus is the brain region responsible for the maintenance of energetic homeostasis. The regulation of this process arises from the ability of the hypothalamus to orchestrate complex physiological responses such as food intake and energy expenditure, circadian rhythm, stress response, and fertility. Metabolic alterations such as obesity can compromise these hypothalamic regulatory functions. Alterations in circadian rhythm, stress response, and fertility further contribute to aggravate the metabolic dysfunction of obesity and contribute to the development of chronic disorders such as depression and infertility.At cellular level, obesity caused by overnutrition can damage the hypothalamus promoting inflammation and impairing hypothalamic neurogenesis. Furthermore, hypothalamic neurons suffer apoptosis and impairment in synaptic plasticity that can compromise the proper functioning of the hypothalamus. Several factors contribute to these phenomena such as ER stress, oxidative stress, and impairments in autophagy. All these observations occur at the same time and it is still difficult to discern whether inflammatory processes are the main drivers of these cellular dysfunctions or if the hypothalamic hormone resistance (insulin, leptin, and ghrelin) can be pinpointed as the source of several of these events.Understanding the mechanisms that underlie the pathophysiology of obesity in the hypothalamus is crucial for the development of strategies that can prevent or attenuate the deleterious effects of obesity.

Abstract
The neuropeptides orexins are important in regulating the neurobiological systems that respond to stressful stimuli. Furthermore, orexins are known to play a role many of the phenotypes associated with stress-related mental illness such as changes in cognition, sleep-wake states, and appetite. Interestingly, orexins are altered in stress-related psychiatric disorders such as Major Depressive Disorder and Anxiety Disorders. Thus, orexins may be a potential target for treatment of these disorders. In this review, we will focus on what is known about the role of orexins in acute and repeated stress, in stress-induced phenotypes relevant to psychiatric illness in preclinical models, and in stress-related psychiatric illness in humans. We will also briefly discuss how orexins may contribute to sex differences in the stress response and subsequent phenotypes relevant to mental health, as many stress-related psychiatric disorders are twice as prevalent in women.

Abstract
Hypertensive subjects often exhibit exaggerated cardiovascular reactivity. An overactive orexin system underlies the pathophysiology of hypertension. We examined orexin's roles in eating-associated cardiovascular reactivity in spontaneously hypertensive rats (SHRs) and Wistar-Kyoto (WKY) rats. Results showed eating regular chow or palatable food (sucrose agar) was accompanied by elevated arterial pressure and heart rate. In both SHRs and WKY rats, the cardiovascular responses associated with sucrose-agar consumption were greater than that with regular-chow consumption. Additionally, SHRs exhibited greater cardiovascular responses than WKY rats did to regular-chow and palatable food consumption. Central orexin 2 receptor (OX2R) blockade attenuated sucrose-agar consumption-associated cardiovascular response only in SHRs. In both SHRs and WKY rats, OX2R blockade did not affect regular-chow consumption-associated cardiovascular responses. Greater numbers of c-Fos-positive cells in the rostral ventrolateral medulla (RVLM) and of c-Fos-positive orexin neurons in the dorsomedial hypothalamus (DMH) were detected in sucrose agar-treated SHRs, compared to regular chow-treated SHRs and to sucrose agar-treated WKY rats. Central OX2R blockade reduced the number of c-Fos-positive cells in the RVLM only in sucrose agar-treated SHRs. We concluded that in SHRs, orexin neurons in the DMH might be overactive during eating palatable food and may further elicit exaggerated cardiovascular responses via an OX2R-RVLM pathway.

Abstract
Purpose of Review The aim of this review was to summarize collected data on the role of orexin and orexin neurons in the control of sleep and blood pressure. Recent Findings Although orexins (hypocretins) have been known for only 20 years, an impressive amount of data is now available regarding their physiological role. Hypothalamic orexin neurons are responsible for the control of food intake and energy expenditure, motivation, circadian rhythm of sleep and wake, memory, cognitive functions, and the cardiovascular system. Multiple studies show that orexinergic stimulation results in increased blood pressure and heart rate and that this effect may be efficiently attenuated by orexinergic antagonism. Increased activity of orexinergic neurons is also observed in animal models of hypertension. Summary Pharmacological intervention in the orexinergic system is now one of the therapeutic possibilities in insomnia. Although the role of orexin in the control of blood pressure is well described, we are still lacking clinical evidence that this is a possibility for a new approach in the treatment of cardiovascular diseases.

Li TL, Chen JYS, Huang SC, Dai YWE, Hwang LL. Cardiovascular pressor effects of orexins in the dorsomedial hypothalamus. Eur J Pharmacol 2017; 818:343-350. [PMID: 29104046 DOI: 10.1016/j.ejphar.2017.11.004] [Citation(s) in RCA: 15] [Impact Index Per Article: 2.1] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 08/13/2017] [Revised: 10/27/2017] [Accepted: 11/01/2017] [Indexed: 10/18/2022]
Abstract
Orexins are important regulators of cardiovascular functions in various physiological and pathological conditions. The dorsomedial hypothalamus (DMH), an essential mediator of cardiovascular responses to stress, contains dense orexinergic innervations and receptors. We examined whether orexins can regulate cardiovascular functions through their actions in the DMH in anesthetized rats. An intra-DMH injection of orexin A (30pmol) produced elevation of arterial pressure and heart rate. Orexin A-sensitive sites were located within or immediately adjacent to the DMH and larger responses were induced at the compact part of the dorsomedial hypothalamic nucleus. Orexin A-induced responses were attenuated by intra-DMH pretreatment with an orexin receptor 1 (OX1R) antagonist, SB-334867 (15nmol) (17.7 ± 2.8 vs. 5.2 ± 1.0mmHg; 54.6 ± 10.0 vs. 22.8 ± 7.4 beats/min). Intra-DMH applied [Ala11,D-Leu15]-orexin B (300 pmol), an orexin receptor 2 (OX2R) agonist, elicited cardiovascular responses mimicking the responses of orexin A, except for a smaller pressor response (7.4 ± 1.7 vs. 16.4 ± 1.8mmHg). In a series of experiment, effects of orexin B (100pmol) and then orexin A (30pmol), were examined at a same site. Two patterns of responses were observed in 12 intra-DMH sites: (1) both orexin A and B (9 sites), and (2) only orexin A (3 sites) induced cardiovascular responses, respectively suggesting OX1R/OX2R-mediated and OX1R-predominant mechanisms. In conclusion, orexins regulated cardiovascular functions through OX1R/OX2R- or OX1R-mediated mechanisms at different locations in the DMH.

Abstract
Chronic aerobic exercise training exhibits blood pressure protective effects, but the mechanism in metabolic level remains largely unclear. This study aims to investigate the effect of exercise training from serum metabolic profiles on the development of hypertension in spontaneously hypertensive rats (SHRs). Exercise training was performed, and the serum metabolites were measured by integrating gas chromatography-mass spectrometer and correlation-based network analysis. After a period of 6 weeks of chronic aerobic exercise training, systolic blood pressure was significant lower in the exercise training group (SHR + EX) rats than the control group (SHR). Principal component analysis indicated a clearly separation of metabolomic profiles between SHR + EX and SHR. Nineteen of 63 metabolites in serum were identified (P < .05, variable importance in projections > 1, false discovery rate < 0.1), including fatty acids, amino acids, and others. Lower levels of six fatty acids were observed in SHR + EX. Besides, pathway analysis indicated a significant alteration of fatty acid metabolism. The correlation-based (Pearson correlation coefficient > 0.83) network of serum metabolites revealed a decreased correlation linkage of SHR + EX than SHR rats. Higher activities of hexokinase, citrate synthase, aspartate aminotransferase, and alanine aminotransferase were detected in liver, left ventricle, and skeletal muscle of SHR + EX groups. In summary, these findings provided essential biochemistry information about the metabolic alteration to exercise training in SHR, which may in part explain the protective effect of exercise in hypertensive individuals.

Abstract
In this review, we focus on the role of orexin signaling in blood pressure control and its potential link to hypertension by summarizing evidence from several experimental animal models of hypertension. Studies using the spontaneously hypertensive rat (SHR) animal model of human essential hypertension show that pharmacological blockade of orexin receptors reduces blood pressure in SHRs but not in Wistar-Kyoto rats. In addition, increased activity of the orexin system contributes to elevated blood pressure and sympathetic nerve activity (SNA) in dark-active period Schlager hypertensive (BPH/2J) mice, another genetic model of neurogenic hypertension. Similar to these two models, Sprague-Dawley rats with stress-induced hypertension display an overactive central orexin system. Furthermore, upregulation of the orexin receptor 1 increases firing of hypothalamic paraventricular nucleus neurons, augments SNA, and contributes to hypertension in the obese Zucker rat, an animal model of obesity-related hypertension. Finally, we propose a hypothesis for the implication of the orexin system in salt-sensitive hypertension. All of this evidence, coupled with the important role of elevated SNA in increasing blood pressure, strongly suggests that hyperactivity of the orexin system contributes to hypertension.

Abstract
Orexins (hypocretins) are critically involved in coordinating appropriate physiological and behavioral responses to aversive and threatening stimuli. Acute stressors engage orexin neurons via direct projections from stress-sensitive brain regions. Orexin neurons, in turn, facilitate adaptive behavior via reciprocal connections as well as via direct projections to the hypophysiotropic neurons that coordinate the hypothalamic-pituitary-adrenal (HPA) axis response to stress. Consequently, hyperactivity of the orexin system is associated with increased motivated arousal and anxiety, and is emerging as a key feature of panic disorder. Accordingly, there has been significant interest in the therapeutic potential of pharmacological agents that antagonize orexin signaling at their receptors for the treatment of anxiety disorders. In contrast, disorders characterized by inappropriately low levels of motivated arousal, such as depression, generally appear to be associated with hypoactivity of the orexin system. This includes narcolepsy with cataplexy, a disorder characterized by the progressive loss of orexin neurons and increased rates of moderate/severe depression symptomology. Here, we provide a comprehensive overview of both clinical and preclinical evidence highlighting the role of orexin signaling in stress reactivity, as well as how perturbations to this system can result in dysregulated behavioral phenotypes.

Abstract
Orexin makes an important contribution to the regulation of cardiorespiratory function. When injected centrally under anesthesia, orexin increases blood pressure, heart rate, sympathetic nerve activity, and the amplitude and frequency of respiration. This is consistent with the location of orexin neurons in the hypothalamus and the distribution of orexin terminals at all levels of the central autonomic and respiratory network. These cardiorespiratory responses are components of arousal and are necessary to allow the expression of motivated behaviors. Thus, orexin contributes to the cardiorespiratory response to acute stressors, especially those of a psychogenic nature. Consequently, upregulation of orexin signaling, whether it is spontaneous or environmentally induced, can increase blood pressure and lead to hypertension, as is the case for the spontaneously hypertensive rat and the hypertensive BPH/2J Schlager mouse. Blockade of orexin receptors will reduce blood pressure in these animals, which could be a new pharmacological approach for the treatment of some forms of hypertension. Orexin can also magnify the respiratory reflex to hypercapnia in order to maintain respiratory homeostasis, and this may be in part why it is upregulated during obstructive sleep apnea. In this pathological condition, blockade of orexin receptors would make the apnea worse. To summarize, orexin is an important modulator of cardiorespiratory function. Acting on orexin signaling may help in the treatment of some cardiovascular and respiratory disorders.

Abstract
This study tested the hypothesis that orexin plays a role in the elevated pressor response to acute stress in the spontaneously hypertensive rat (SHR). The pressor response to air jet stress (AJS) (n=11/group) was 2.5 times greater in vehicle treated SHR versus Wistar (WIS) rats. Systemic delivery of 30mg/kg of the dual orexin receptor antagonist almorexant did not significantly change resting mean arterial pressure (MAP) but did attenuate the pressor response elicited by AJS to a greater extent in the SHR compared to the Wistar rats (~65% versus ~33% reduction respectively; n=6/group). Alternatively 100mg/kg almorexant reduced resting MAP in the SHR (~25mm Hg drop) and attenuated both the heart rate (HR; ~50% reduction) and MAP (~62% reduction) response to AJS in both strains (n=6/group). Systemic application of SB-334867 (3mg/kg), an orexin receptor type 1 antagonist (n=5/group), selectively reduced resting MAP and attenuated the HR response to AJS in the SHR but had no effect on the pressor response in either strain. The potential role of endogenous orexin release in cardiovascular control in the SHR was linked to a significant increase in brain-derived neurotrophic factor mRNA expression in the hypothalamus and elevated orexin receptor expression (type 2 only) in the dorsal pons when compared to WIS (n=4/group). These results demonstrate that the exaggerated pressor response in the SHR to stress is linked to increased orexin receptor activation and possibly altered orexin receptor expression in the dorsal pons and BDNF expression in the hypothalamus.

Abstract
Orexin, the arousal peptide, originates from neurons located in an area of the dorsal hypothalamus well known for integrating defense responses and their cardiovascular component. Orexin neurons, which are driven in large part by the limbic forebrain, send projections to many regions in the brain, including regions involved in cardiovascular control, as far down as sympathetic preganglionic neurons in the spinal cord. Central injections of orexin evoke sympathetically mediated cardiovascular responses. Conversely, blockade of orexin receptors reduce the cardiovascular responses to acute stressors, preferentially of a psychological nature. More importantly, lasting upregulation of orexin signaling can lead to a hypertensive state. This can be observed in rats exposed to chronic stress as well as in strains known to display spontaneous hypertension such as the spontaneously hypertensive rat (SHR) or the hypertensive BPH/2J Schlager mouse. Thus, there is a link between orexin, stress and hypertension, and orexin upregulation could be a factor in the development of essential hypertension. Orexin receptor antagonists have anti-hypertensive effects that could be of clinical use.

Abstract
KEY POINTS Activation of central chemoreceptors by CO2 increases sympathetic nerve activity (SNA), arterial blood pressure (ABP) and breathing. These effects are exaggerated in spontaneously hypertensive rats (SHRs), resulting in an augmented CO2 chemoreflex that affects both breathing and ABP. The augmented CO2 chemoreflex and the high ABP are measureable in young SHRs (postnatal day 30-58) and become greater in adult SHRs. Blockade of orexin receptors can normalize the augmented CO2 chemoreflex and the high ABP in young SHRs and normalize the augmented CO2 chemoreflex and significantly lower the high ABP in adult SHRs. In the hypothalamus, SHRs have more orexin neurons, and a greater proportion of them increase their activity with CO2 . The orexin system is overactive in SHRs and contributes to the augmented CO2 chemoreflex and hypertension. Modulation of the orexin system may be beneficial in the treatment of neurogenic hypertension. ABSTRACT Activation of central chemoreceptors by CO2 increases arterial blood pressure (ABP), sympathetic nerve activity and breathing. In spontaneously hypertensive rats (SHRs), high ABP is associated with enhanced sympathetic nerve activity and peripheral chemoreflexes. We hypothesized that an augmented CO2 chemoreflex and overactive orexin system are linked with high ABP in both young (postnatal day 30-58) and adult SHRs (4-6 months). Our main findings are as follows. (i) An augmented CO2 chemoreflex and higher ABP in SHRs are measureable at a young age and increase in adulthood. In wakefulness, the ventilatory response to normoxic hypercapnia is higher in young SHRs (mean ± SEM: 179 ± 11% increase) than in age-matched normotensive Wistar-Kyoto rats (114 ± 9% increase), but lower than in adult SHRs (226 ± 10% increase; P < 0.05). The resting ABP is higher in young SHRs (122 ± 5 mmHg) than in age-matched Wistar-Kyoto rats (99 ± 5 mmHg), but lower than in adult SHRs (152 ± 4 mmHg; P < 0.05). (ii) Spontaneously hypertensive rats have more orexin neurons and more CO2 -activated orexin neurons in the hypothalamus. (iii) Antagonism of orexin receptors with a dual orexin receptor antagonist, almorexant, normalizes the augmented CO2 chemoreflex in young and adult SHRs and the high ABP in young SHRs and significantly lowers ABP in adult SHRs. (iv) Attenuation of peripheral chemoreflexes by hyperoxia does not abolish the augmented CO2 chemoreflex (breathing and ABP) in SHRs, which indicates an important role for the central chemoreflex. We suggest that an overactive orexin system may play an important role in the augmented central CO2 chemoreflex and in the development of hypertension in SHRs.

Abstract
BPH/2J mice are a genetic model of hypertension associated with an overactive sympathetic nervous system. Orexin is a neuropeptide which influences sympathetic activity and blood pressure. Orexin precursor mRNA expression is greater in hypothalamic tissue of BPH/2J compared with normotensive BPN/3J mice. To determine whether enhanced orexinergic signaling contributes to the hypertension, BPH/2J and BPN/3J mice were preimplanted with radiotelemetry probes to compare blood pressure 1 hour before and 5 hours after administration of almorexant, an orexin receptor antagonist. Mid frequency mean arterial pressure power and the depressor response to ganglion blockade were also used as indicators of sympathetic nervous system activity. Administration of almorexant at 100 (IP) and 300 mg/kg (oral) in BPH/2J mice during the dark-active period (2 hours after lights off) markedly reduced blood pressure (-16.1 ± 1.6 and -11.0 ± 1.1 mm Hg, respectively;P<0.001 compared with vehicle). However, when almorexant (100 mg/kg, IP) was administered during the light-inactive period (5 hours before lights off) no reduction from baseline was observed (P=0.64). The same dose of almorexant in BPN/3J mice had no effect on blood pressure during the dark (P=0.79) or light periods (P=0.24). Almorexant attenuated the depressor response to ganglion blockade (P=0.018) and reduced the mid frequency mean arterial pressure power in BPH/2J mice (P<0.001), but not BPN/3J mice (P=0.70). Immunohistochemical labeling revealed that BPH/2J mice have 29% more orexin neurons than BPN/3J mice which are preferentially located in the lateral hypothalamus. The results suggest that enhanced orexinergic signaling contributes to sympathetic overactivity and hypertension during the dark period in BPH/2J mice.

Abstract
Activation of central cholinergic receptors causes a pressor response in rats, and the hypothalamus is important for this response. Projections from hypothalamic orexin neurons to the rostral ventrolateral medulla (RVLM) are involved in sympatho-excitation of the cardiovascular system. A small population of orexin neurons is regulated by cholinergic inputs through M3 muscarinic acetylcholine receptor (M3 R). To elucidate whether the M3 R on orexin neurons is involved in cardiosympathetic regulation through the RVLM, we examined the presence of the M3 R on retrograde-labeled RVLM-projecting orexin neurons. The retrograde tracer was unilaterally injected into the RVLM. Within the hypothalamus, retrograde-labeled neurons were located predominantly ipsilateral to the injection side. In the anterior hypothalamus (-1.5 to -2.3 mm to the bregma), retrograde-labeled neurons were densely distributed in the paraventricular nuclei and scattered in the retrochiasmatic area. At -2.3 to -3.5 mm from the bregma, labeled neurons were located in the regions where orexin neurons were situated, that is, the tuberal lateral hypothalamic area, perifornical area, and dorsomedial nuclei. Very few retrograde-labeled neurons were observed in the hypothalamus at -3.5 to -4.5 mm from the bregma. About 19.5% ± 1.6% of RVLM-projecting neurons in the tuberal hypothalamus were orexinergic. The M3 R was present on 18.7% ± 3.0% of RVLM-projecting orexin neurons. Injection of a muscarinic agonist, oxotremorine, in the perifornical area resulted in a pressor response, which was attenuated by a pretreatment of atropine. We conclude that cholinergic inputs to orexin neurons may be involved in cardiosympathetic regulation through the M3 R on the orexin neurons that directly project to the RVLM.

Abstract
Biologically active peptides are widely expressed throughout in human bodies. For example, endothelin-1 and adrenomedullin are expressed in almost all types of cells, including neurons, glial cells, fibroblasts, macrophages, cardiomyocytes, vascular endothelial cells, epithelial cells and cancer cells of various origins. Expression of both these peptides is induced by stimuli, such as hypoxia and inflammatory cytokines. They have a variety of biological functions, such as effects on brain function, hormone secretion, the cardiovascular system and cell proliferation. By contrast, orexins (hypocretins) and melanin-concentrating hormone (MCH) are specifically expressed in the hypothalamus, particularly in the lateral hypothalamus, although very low concentrations of these peptides are found in the peripheral tissues. Orexins and MCH play coordinated, but distinct physiological roles in the regulation of sleep-wake cycle, appetite, emotion and other brain functions. The cardiovascular system is regulated by cardiovascular peptides, such as natriuretic peptides, endothelins and angiotensin II. The renin-angiotensin system (RAS) is one of the most classical regulatory systems on blood pressure, electrolytes and kidney. (Pro)renin receptor is a novel member of the RAS and may be related to the pathophysiology of microvascular complications of hypertension and diabetes mellitus. Moreover, (pro)renin receptor forms a functional complex with vacuolar-type H(+)-ATPase, which plays an important physiological role in maintaining the acidic environment of intracellular compartments including secretory vesicles. Perhaps, the complex of (pro)renin receptor and vacuolar-type H(+)-ATPase may be important for the post-translational processing and secretion of many biologically active peptides.

Chronic heart failure alters orexin and melanin concentrating hormone but not corticotrophin releasing hormone-related gene expression in the brain of male Lewis rats. Neuropeptides 2015; 52:67-72. [PMID: 26111703 DOI: 10.1016/j.npep.2015.06.001] [Citation(s) in RCA: 13] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.4] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 12/01/2014] [Revised: 06/02/2015] [Accepted: 06/03/2015] [Indexed: 11/27/2022]
Abstract
OBJECTIVE The aim of this study was to investigate the effect of chronic heart failure (HF; 16 weeks post left coronary artery ligation) on the brain's orexin (ORX) and related neuropeptide systems. METHODS Indicators of cardiac function, including the percent fractional shortening (%FS) left ventricular posterior wall shortening velocity (LVPWSV) were assessed via echocardiography at 16 weeks post myocardial infarction or sham treatment in male Lewis rats (n=5/group). Changes in gene expression in HF versus control (CON) groups were quantified by real-time PCR in the hypothalamus, amygdala and dorsal pons. RESULTS HF significantly reduced both the %FS and LVPWSV when compared to CON animals (P<0.02). In the hypothalamus ORX gene expression was significantly reduced in HF and correlated with changes in cardiac function when compared to CON (P<0.02). No significant changes in hypothalamic ORX receptor (type 1 or type 2) gene expression were identified. Alternatively hypothalamic melanin concentrating hormone (MCH) gene expression was significantly upregulated in HF animals and negatively correlated with LVPWSV (P<0.006). In both the amygdala and dorsal pons ORX type 2 receptor expression was significantly down-regulated in HF compared to CON. ORX receptor type 1, CRH and CRH type 1 and type 2 receptor expressions were unchanged by HF in all brain regions analyzed. CONCLUSION These observations support previous work demonstrating that cardiovascular disease modulates the ORX system and identify that in the case of chronic HF the ORX system is altered in parallel with changes in MCH expression but independent of any significant changes in the central CRH system. This raises the new possibility that ORX and MCH systems may play an important role in the pathophysiology of HF.

Abstract
In the past, studies on stress responses and sleep/wake regulation were performed separately. The discovery of orexin (hypocretin) in 1998, however, dramatically changed the course of research and new findings regarding its role in these complex processes provided a better insight into their interactions and intricacies. Orexin-containing neuronal activity has been found to be minimal during sleep. It increases during the waking period and further increases during the active waking period, which includes stress responses and exploratory behaviors. Autonomic regulation of the body, which includes body temperature, blood flow, and ventilation, is also activated along with the change in vigilance states. Our recent findings suggest that orexin neurons act as a conductor of orchestration for vigilance states, behaviors, and autonomic functions. Body temperature regulation by orexin neurons seems to be mediated by one of its cotransmitters while cardiovascular and respiratory regulation are mediated by orexin itself.

Abstract
Ischemic stroke results in diverse pathophysiologies, including cerebral inflammation, neuronal loss, cognitive dysfunction, and depression. Studies aimed at identifying therapeutic solutions to alleviate these outcomes are important due to the increase in the number of stroke patients annually. Recently, many studies have reported that orexin, commonly known as a neuropeptide regulator of sleep/wakefulness and appetite, is associated with neuronal cell apoptosis, memory function, and depressive symptoms. Here, we briefly summarize recent studies regarding the role and future perspectives of orexin in post-ischemic stroke. This review advances our understanding of the role of orexin in post-stroke pathologies, focusing on its possible function as a therapeutic regulator in the post-ischemic brain. Ultimately, we suggest the clinical potential of orexin to regulate post-stroke pathologies.
