Neuropeptide Y (NPY) is a potent feeding stimulant. The orexigenic
effect of NPY might be caused in part by the action of Y1 receptors.
However, the existence of multiple NPY receptors including a possible
novel feeding receptor has made it difficult to determine the relative
importance of the Y1 receptor in feeding regulation. Herein we
certified that the Y1 receptor is a major feeding receptor of NPY by
using the potent and selective Y1 antagonist (
)-2-[1-(3-chloro-5-isopropyloxycarbonylaminophenyl)ethylamino]-6-[2-(5-ethyl-4-methyl-1,3-thiazol-2-yl)ethyl]-4-morpholinopyridine (J-115814) and Y1 receptor-deficient (Y1
/
) mice. J-115814 displaced 125I-peptide YY binding to cell membranes expressing cloned
human, rat, and murine Y1 receptors with
Ki values of 1.4, 1.8, and 1.9 nM,
respectively, and inhibited NPY (10 nM)-induced increases in
intracellular calcium levels via human Y1 receptors
(IC50 = 6.8 nM). In contrast, J-115814 showed low
affinities for human Y2 (Ki > 10 µM), Y4 (Ki = 640 nM) and Y5
receptors (Ki = 6000 nM).
Intracerebroventricular (ICV) (10-100 µg) and intravenous (IV)
(0.3-30 mg/kg) administration of J-115814 significantly and dose-dependently suppressed feeding induced by ICV NPY (5 µg) in
satiated Sprague-Dawley rats. Intraperitoneal (IP) administration of
J-115814 (3-30 mg/kg) significantly attenuated spontaneous feeding in
db/db and C57BL6 mice. Feeding induced by ICV NPY (5 µg) was
unaffected by IP-injected J-115814 (30 mg/kg) in Y1
/
mice and was
suppressed in wild-type and Y5
/
mice. These findings clearly
suggest that J-115814 inhibits feeding behaviors through the inhibition
of the typical Y1 receptor. We conclude that the Y1 receptor plays a
key role in regulating food intake.
