Set points, settling points, and the control of body weight.
Recently a number of investigators have suggested that body weight may be controlled by a neural system which contains a reference or set point. The finding that the body weight level which animals will defend can be altered by lesions of the lateral and ventromedial hypothalamus has been taken to provide support for this claim. In this paper we describe a simple feedback control model which co...
متن کاملDefense of differfing body weight set points in diet-induced obese and resistant rats.
Among outbred Sprague-Dawley rats, approximately one-half develop diet-induced obesity (DIO) and one-half are diet resistant (DR) on a diet relatively high in fat and energy content (HE diet). Here we examined the defense of body weight in these two phenotypes. After HE diet for 13 wk, followed by chow for 6 wk, DR rats gained weight comparably but their plasma leptin levels fell to 54% of chow...
متن کاملBody, weight, energetics, and the determination of body temperature.
An analysis of the influence of body weight on the energetics of endotherms has been proposed by McNab (1970). It was based on the observations that (1) when body temperature is constant heat production equals heat loss, and (2) heat loss may be described as the product of thermal conductance and the temperature differential between the body and the environment: M = C(Tb—Ta). This expression wi...

متن کاملOperational Determination of Tie Points and Bundle Adjustment of Hrsc Images of the Mars Express Mission
The pushbroom scanner HRSC (High Resolution Stereo Camera) onboard the European Mars Express mission is orbiting the planet Mars since January 2004 and delivers stereoscopic imagery with five panchromatic and four colour channels. This paper describes the process of improving the exterior orientation of the HRSC which is needed in order to derive high quality products such as high resolution Di...
