| Outline of Final Research Achievements |
Some hypothalamic neuropeptides, such as orexin, cholecystokinin and kisspeptin, monoamine neurotransmitters, such as dopamine and serotonin, and gamma-aminobutyric acid have been implicated in the regulation of appetite and energy homeostasis. In this study, we found that these substances also influence psychomotor activity in fish model.
