A 41 year old accountant recently registered with your practice. His registration health check indicates: BMI 31, BP 150/95, urine 1 + of glucose, no protein, smoker of 15 cigarettes daily. He has had diabetes for seven years and is taking Metformin 500 mg four times daily. It has been over a year since he last saw a doctor and he has now come to see you to obtain a prescription for medication.

We have recently shown that injection of the hypothalamic peptide cocaine and amphetamine regulated transcript (CART) into discrete hypothalamic nuclei stimulates food intake. This stimulation was particularly marked in the arcuate nucleus. Here we show that twice daily intra-arcuate injection of 0.2 nmole CART peptide for 7 days was associated with a 60% higher daytime food intake, an 85% higher thermogenic response to the beta3 agonist BRL 35135, and a 60% increase in brown adipose tissue UCP-1 mRNA. In a separate study, using stereotactically targeted gene transfer, a CART transgene was delivered by using polyethylenimine to the arcuate nucleus of adult rats. Food intake was increased significantly during ad libitum feeding and following periods of food withdrawal and food restriction in CART over-expressing animals. CART over-expressing animals lost 12% more weight than controls following a 24-h fast. Brown adipose tissue uncoupling protein-1 (UCP-1) mRNA levels (collected Day 25) were 80% higher in CART over-expressing animals. Finally, by using quantitative in situ hybridization, we found that chronic cold exposure (20 days at 4oC) increased arcuate nucleus CART mRNA by 124%. Together with the orexigenic and thermogenic effects of CART, this finding suggests a role for arcuate nucleus CART in cold adaptation.
