Research Abstract |
The purpose of the study is to explore antidepressant effects of electroconvulsive seizures (ECS) in the hypothalamic nuclei. (1) ECS down-regulates gene expression of cholecystokinin, which is suggested as a modulator of the stress responses, in the paraventricular hypothalamus. (2) ECS up-regulates gene expression of anorexigenic factors in the ventromedial hypothalamus, and decreases food intake via ventromedial hypothalamus function. This study suggests a role in the regulation energy homeostasis by ECS.
