TL;DR
The results suggest that the lateral hypothalamic region, as well as the medial hypothalamus, contain glucoreceptive cells that form part of a feeding system.
Abstract
The effect on food intake of intrahypothalamic deposition of glucose or the glucose metabolic inhibitor 2-deoxy-D-glucose was studied to determine the function of the often hypothesized hypothalamic glucoreceptors in feeding behavior. Our results suggest that the lateral hypothalamic region, as well as the medial hypothalamus, contain glucoreceptive cells that form part of a feeding system.

The injection of adrenergic and adrenolytic drugs directly into the brain through permanently implanted cannulas has yielded results showing that food consumption in the rat is regulated by a hypothalamic alpha-adrenergic "hunger" system.

Injection of 6 micrograms of aqueous norepinephrine elicits eating only when it takes place at sites within a limited region of the rat brain, which does not correspond to those parts of the lateral hypothalamus thought to control normal feeding.

2DG in vivo might have a selective inhibitory effect on tumor metabolism, since inhibition was reversed by increased glucose in the case of tumor and brain, and 2DG did not significantly inhibit the endogenous respiration in any of the tissues studied.

The results suggest that closely adjacent neuronal aggregates (VMH-LHA) may have different metabolic requirements for single compounds, and that the VMH functions in satiety mechanisms for food as well as water intake.

The response to goldthioglucose-induced obesity differs in two genetically independent inbred strains of mice (CBA and C57BL); this difference in response to a specific dose is associated with degree of hypothalamic damage, more extensive in CBA than in C 57BL mice, the former becoming more obese than the latter.

With the dosage used in this study, 2-deoxy-d-glucose did not produce any generalized changes in blood sugar or an arterior-venous glucose difference in the cat and the significance of the specific response of hypothalamic feeding centers to glucopenia is discussed.

It is suggested that norepinephrine produced a motivational depression in a rat's willingness to work for food which is similar to that seen following ventromedial lesions of the hypothalamus.
