Cholinergic stimulation of the lateral hypothalamic area with carbachol (1 microgram in 1 microliter) markedly inhibited gastric acid secretion in the anesthetized rat. Inhibition was blocked by prior micro-injection of atropine (4 micrograms/microliters) into the same brain area and was accompanied by an increased sodium content in the stomach. Muscarinic receptor mediated cholinergic inhibitory influence of the hypothalamus on gastric acid secretion is suggested by these results.

D007026	Hypothalamic Area, Lateral	Area in the hypothalamus bounded medially by the mammillothalamic tract and the anterior column of the FORNIX (BRAIN). The medial edge of the INTERNAL CAPSULE and the subthalamic region form its lateral boundary. It contains the lateral hypothalamic nucleus, tuberomammillary nucleus, lateral tuberal nuclei, and fibers of the MEDIAL FOREBRAIN BUNDLE.

D011950	Receptors, Cholinergic	Cell surface proteins that bind acetylcholine with high affinity and trigger intracellular changes influencing the behavior of cells. Cholinergic receptors are divided into two major classes, muscarinic and nicotinic, based originally on their affinity for nicotine and muscarine. Each group is further subdivided based on pharmacology, location, mode of action, and/or molecular biology.
