PubMed PubMed Product Detail The CART gene encodes for a protein which has an important role in the regulation of appetite and body weight. The CART (cocaine- and amphetamine-regulated transcript) neuropeptide is an mRNA that changes in response to psychostimulant drug administration. Injection of CART peptides into the ventral tegmental area produces psychostimulant-like effects. CART localizes to areas of the central and peripheral nervous systems and is involved in feeding behavior when injected centrally. Expression of CART in the rat hypothalamus is modulated by nutritional status, and injection of synthetic CART peptide into the forebrain ventricular system suppresses food intake, indicating a possible role in hypothalamic control of energy homeostasis. Its identification in cell bodies and central terminals of vagal afferent neurons additionally suggests a role in brainstem mechanisms of meal termination and satiety.
Function:
CART (Cocaine and amphetamine regulated transcript protein) is implicated in reward, feeding, and stress, and it has the functional properties of an endogenous psychostimulant. It is closely associated with the actions of leptin and neuropeptide Y. It promotes neuronal development and survival in vitro.
Subcellular Location:
Secreted
Tissue Specificity:
Hypothalamus. Found in neurons of the ventrolateral part of the arcuate nucleus, in the external zone of the median eminence, and also found in terminals in the periventricular part of the paraventricular nucleus.
Similarity:
Belongs to the CART family.
