Hypothalamic levels of NPY, MCH, and prepro‐orexin mRNA during pregnancy and lactation in the rat: role of prolactin

ABSTRACT Pregnancy and lactation provide excellent models of physiological hyperphagia and hyper‐prolactinemia. To identify possible factors associated with the increased feeding in these situations, we measured hypothalamic mRNA levels of three orexigenic neuropeptides—NPY, MCH, and orexins—in nonp...
