Abstract
ⶠMost dorsal raphe neurons postsynaptically depolarized by ghrelin. ⶠIonic mechanisms include increase in nonselective cationic conductance and decrease in K+ conductance. ⶠMost depolarized neurons were putative serotonergic neurons. ⶠDorsal raphe neurons, especially serotonin-containing neurons, might be involved in ghrelin CNS effects.
