Abstract

- The availability of Cre-based mouse lines for visualizing and targeting populations of hormone-sensitive cells has helped identify the neural circuitry driving hormone effects. However, these mice have limitations and may not even be available. For instance, the development of the first ghrelin receptor (Ghsr)-IRES-Cre model paved the way for using the Cre-lox system to identify and selectively manipulate ghrelin-responsive populations. The insertion of the IRES-Cre cassette, however, interfered with Ghsr expression, resulting in defective GHSR signaling and a pronounced phenotype in the homozygotes. As an alternative strategy to target ghrelin-responsive cells, we hereby utilize TRAP2 (targeted recombination in active populations) mice in which it is possible to gain genetic access to ghrelin-activated populations. In TRAP2 mice crossed with a reporter strain, we visualized ghrelin-activated cells and found, as expected, much activation in the arcuate nucleus (Arc). We then stimulated this population using a chemogenetic approach and found that this was sufficient to induce an orexigenic response of similar magnitude to that induced by peripheral ghrelin injection. The stimulation of this population also impacted food choice. Thus, the TRAPing of hormone-activated neurons (here exemplified by ghrelin-activated pathways) provides a complimentary/alternative technique to visualize, access and control discrete pathways, linking hormone action to circuit function.
