Aversive properties of lithium chloride (LiCl) are mediated via pathways comprising neurons of the nucleus of the solitary tract (NTS) and oxytocin (OT) and vasopressin (VP) cells in the hypothalamic paraventricular (PVN) and supraoptic (SON) nuclei. Because opioids act on brain regions that mediate effects of LiCl, we evaluated whether administration of opioids shortly before LiCl in rats influences 1) development of conditioned taste aversion (CTA) and 2) activation of NTS neurons and OT/VP…

Oxytocin receptor blockade reduces acquisition but not retrieval of taste aversion and blunts responsiveness of amygdala neurons to an aversive stimulus

TLDR
The N/OFQ system promotes feeding by affecting the need to replenish lacking calories and by reducing aversive responsiveness, which may belong to mechanisms that shift a balance between the drive to ingest energy and avoidance of potentially tainted food.
Nocistatin inhibits food intake in rats
Central administration of nociceptin/orphanin FQ blocks the acquisition of conditioned place preference to morphine and cocaine, but not conditioned place aversion to naloxone in mice
TLDR
Nociceptin blocks the rewarding properties of drugs in both narcotic analgesic and psychostimulant classes in the mouse, and has only a minor effect on the negative affective state experienced following naloxone administration.
Central oxytocin receptor stimulation attenuates the orexigenic effects of butorphanol tartrate
TLDR
Doses of LV and 4V OT are determined that reduce hyperphagia produced by BT in sated and deprived rats and whether OT’s effects on BT-induced feeding can be suppressed by an OT receptor antagonist.
Oxytocin Acting in the Nucleus Accumbens Core Decreases Food Intake
TLDR
It is found that OT acting via the AcbC decreases food intake driven by hunger and reward in rats offered a meal in a nonsocial setting, and a social context abolishes the anorexigenic effects.
Blunted hyperphagic and c-Fos immunoreactivity responsiveness to an orexigen, butorphanol tartrate, in aged rats
Peptides that regulate food intake: effect of peptide histidine isoleucine on consummatory behavior in rats.
TLDR
It is found that central PHI has an inhibitory influence on food intake in rats and the PVN, with OT and VP neurons, and CeA may be involved in the mediation of anorexigenic effects of PHI.
Minireview: Characterization of influence of central nociceptin/orphanin FQ on consummatory behavior.
TLDR
Data suggest that N/OFQ may not only promote feeding initiation, but rather its role may be to inhibit signaling responsible for inhibition of consummatory behavior, including oxytocin, alpha-MSH, and CRH.

Oxytocin and vasopressin secretion in response to stimuli producing learned taste aversions in rats.
TLDR
Results suggest that peripheral levels of OT may represent a quantifiable marker of visceral illness in rats and therefore might be useful in the interpretation of behavioral studies in which learned taste aversions are produced, provided that other stimuli of neurohypophyseal secretion are absent.

Inhibitory actions of nociceptin (orphanin FQ) on rat supraoptic nucleus oxytocin and vasopressin neurones in vitro.
TLDR
The nociceptin gene is expressed in the SON7, and because previous studies have shown inhibitory actions of opioids within the SONS on both oxytocin and vasopressin neurones, it is investigated whether nocICEptin could act to oppose opioids on SON neurones.

Naloxone potentiation of effects of cholecystokinin and lithium chloride on oxytocin secretion, gastric motility and feeding.
TLDR
Evidence is provided in support of an important role of endogenous opioid peptides in regulating OT secretion in a diffuse neuronal system that mediates an integrated neuroendocrine, autonomic, and behavioral response to CCK, LiCl, and perhaps other treatments that similarly affect ingestive behavior in rats.

TLDR
The results obtained with lactating rats suggest that secretion of the hormone oxytocin is substantially reduced during opiate‐induced analgesia.
Morphine actions on supraoptic oxytocin neurones in anaesthetized rats: tolerance after i.c.v. morphine infusion.
TLDR
Morphine potently inhibits the firing of magnocellular oxytocin neurones in the female rat, inhibiting oxytocIn secretion, indicating dependence in mechanisms regulating the firing rate of these neurones.
