The appetite suppressant d-fenfluramine reduces water intake, but not food intake, in activity-based anorexia.
Biochemical, genetic and imaging studies support the involvement of the serotonin (5-HT) system in anorexia nervosa. Activity-based anorexia (ABA) is considered an animal model of anorexia nervosa, and combines scheduled feeding with voluntary running wheel activity (RWA). We investigated the effect of d-fenfluramine (d-FEN) treatment on development and propagation of ABA. d-FEN is an appetite ...
متن کاملN-methyl-d-aspartate receptor coagonist d-serine suppresses intake of high-preference food.
d-Serine is abundant in the forebrain and physiologically important for modulating excitatory glutamatergic neurotransmission as a coagonist of synaptic N-methyl-d-aspartate (NMDA) receptor. NMDA signaling has been implicated in the control of food intake. However, the role of d-serine on appetite regulation is unknown. To clarify the effects of d-serine on appetite, we investigated the effect ...
متن کاملCephalopod vision involves dicarboxylic amino acids: D-aspartate, L-aspartate and L-glutamate.
In the present study, we report the finding of high concentrations of D-Asp (D-aspartate) in the retina of the cephalopods Sepia officinalis, Loligo vulgaris and Octopus vulgaris. D-Asp increases in concentration in the retina and optic lobes as the animal develops. In neonatal S. officinalis, the concentration of D-Asp in the retina is 1.8+/-0.2 micromol/g of tissue, and in the optic lobes it ...
متن کاملCentral administration of glucagon suppresses food intake in chicks.
Food intake in chickens is regulated in a manner similar to that in mammals. Corticotropin-releasing factor (CRF), which increases the plasma corticosterone concentration, plays an important role as a mediator of many appetite-suppressive peptides in the central nervous system in both species. Central administration of glucagon suppresses food intake in rats. However, the anorexigenic action of...
متن کاملRed cell aspartate aminotransferase saturation with oral pyridoxine intake.
CONTEXT AND OBJECTIVE The coenzyme of aspartate aminotransferase is pyridoxal phosphate, generated from fresh vegetables containing pyridoxine. Vitamin B6-responsive sideroblastic anemia, myelofibrosis and Peyronies syndrome respond to high pyridoxine doses. The objective was to investigate the oral pyridoxine oral dose that would lead to maximized pyridoxal phosphate saturation of red cell asp...
