Avoid creating questions that (i) can't be answered correctly without actually understanding the passage and (ii) uses the same words or phrases given in the passage.

Context: Mice with functional ablation of the neurokinin-1 receptor gene (NK1R(-/-)) display behavioural abnormalities which resemble the hyperactivity, inattention and impulsivity seen in Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder (ADHD). Here, we investigated whether the established ADHD treatment, atomoxetine, alleviates these abnormalities when tested in the light/dark exploration box (LDEB) and 5-Choice Serial Reaction-Time Task (5-CSRTT).', 'Separate cohorts of mice were tested in the 5-CSRTT and LDEB after treatment with no injection, vehicle or atomoxetine (5-CSRTT: 0.3, 3 or 10mg/kg; LDEB: 1, 3 or 10mg/kg).', 'Atomoxetine reduced the hyperactivity displayed by NK1R(-/-) mice in the LDEB at a dose (3mg/kg) which did not affect the locomotor activity of wildtypes. Atomoxetine (10mg/kg) also reduced impulsivity in NK1R(-/-) mice, but not wildtypes, in the 5-CSRTT. No dose of drug affected attention in either genotype.
Answer: This evidence that atomoxetine reduces hyperactive/impulsive behaviours in NK1R(-/-) mice consolidates the validity of using NK1R(-/-) mice in research of the aetiology and treatment of ADHD.
Does atomoxetine reduce hyperactive/impulsive behaviours in neurokinin-1 receptor 'knockout ' mice?

Context: The orphan G protein-coupled receptor (GPR) 39 was originally identified as the receptor of obestatin. In this study, the effects and mechanisms of GPR39 on cell proliferation and differentiation were investigated in cultured porcine intramuscular preadipocytes.', 'Morphology of preadipocytes and accumulated lipid droplets within cells were identified by an inverted microscope. After transfected with constructed pCMV-GPR39 plasmid, cell proliferation was measured by using methyl thiazolyl tetrazolium method, mRNA expression of GPR39, CCAAT/enhancer binding protein-α (C/EBPα), peroxisome proliferator-activated receptor-γ (PPARγ), Caspase-9 and adipocyte determination and differentiation factor-1 (ADD1) was determined by RNA preparation and reverse transcription polymerase chain reaction, protein expression of phosphoinositide-3 kinase (PI3K), 3-phosphoinositide-dependent protein kinase 1, phosphorylated glycogen synthase kinase 3 (pGSK3), total Akt and phosphorylated Akt (pAkt) was analyzed by Western blot.', 'It found that GPR39 mRNA and protein were expressed in porcine intramuscular preadipocytes and its expression was significantly up-regulated after treatment with Zn(2+) whose function is found to be mediated by GPR39. Furthermore, over-expression of GPR39 further promoted the optical density value of cells, enhanced mRNA expression of PPARγ, C/EBPα and ADD1, and inhibited mRNA expression of Caspase-9. Protein expression of pGSK3 and pAkt was also increased by GPR39 stimulation. In addition, GPR39-induced proliferation and differentiation of porcine intramuscular preadipocytes was partially blocked by the Akt inhibitor (PDTC) and the PI3K inhibitor (LY294002).
Answer: It indicated that GPR39 was a transducer of Zn(2+), and enhanced proliferation and differentiation of porcine intramuscular preadipocytes through activation of the PI3K/Akt signaling pathway.
Does gPR39 activate proliferation and differentiation of porcine intramuscular preadipocytes through targeting the PI3K/AKT cell signaling pathway?

Context: A profound reduction of spontaneous as well as stimulated GH secretion has been consistently observed in obesity. Dopamine promotes GH release through activation of dopamine D2 receptors (D2Rs). Dopamine D2R availability in the brain is reduced in obese humans in proportion to body adiposity. We hypothesized that impaired dopamine D2R signaling is mechanistically involved in the deficient GH secretion associated with obesity.', 'To test this hypothesis, we studied the effect of short-term bromocriptine (B) (a D2R agonist) treatment on spontaneous 24-h GH secretion in obese women, while body weight and caloric intake remained constant.', 'This was a prospective, fixed order, cross-over study.', 'The study was performed in the Clinical Research Center at Leiden University Medical Center.', 'There were 18 healthy obese women (body mass index 33.2 +/- 0.6 kg/m2) studied twice in the early follicular phase of their menstrual cycle.', 'Eight days of treatment with B and placebo (Pl) was performed.', 'Blood was collected during 24 h at 10-min intervals for determination of GH concentrations. GH secretion parameters were calculated using deconvolution analysis.', 'Short-term treatment with B significantly enhanced diurnal GH secretion (Pl 121.4 +/- 16.4 vs. B 155.4 +/- 15.2 microg/liter(volume of distribution).24 h; P = 0.01), whereas IGF-I concentrations remained constant (Pl 22.4 +/- 2.4 vs. B 21.8 +/- 1.6 nmol/liter; P = 0.928).
Answer: Activation of dopamine D2Rs by B favorably affects impaired nyctohemeral GH secretion in obese women. Reduced dopaminergic neuronal signaling might be involved in the pathogenesis of obesity associated hyposomatotropism.
