Peptides and Food Intake
The mechanisms for controlling food intake involve mainly an interplay between gut, brain, and adipose tissue (AT), among the major organs. Parasympathetic, sympathetic, and other systems are required for communication between the brain satiety center, gut, and AT. These neuronal circuits include a variety of peptides and hormones, being ghrelin the only orexigenic molecule known, whereas the p...
متن کاملPeptides that regulate food intake.
IN THIS ISSUE OF THE JOURNAL are published the first group of papers submitted to the Special Call for Papers on the subject “Peptides that Regulate Food Intake.” These nine papers (7a, 32a, 37a, 37b, 41a, 42a, 43a, 46a, 49a) illustrate both the breadth and depth of the subject. They continue the contribution made by papers published in the American Journal of Physiology-Regulatory, Integrative...
متن کاملThe effects of morphine and nicotine co-administration on body weight, food intake and appetite-regulating peptides in rats
Previous studies in humans and animals have reported that nicotine administration decreases body weightand caloric intake. Opiate and cigarette have been used concomitantly as drug abuse. The aim of the present study was, therefore, to analyze the effect of chronic co-administration of nicotine and morphine on food intake, body weight and on some feeding-associated peptides. All experiments wer...
متن کاملRole of peptides from gastrointestinal cells in food intake regulation.
Many peptides are contained in specific cells distributed throughout the gastrointestinal tract. Some are known to be released by the presence of specific components of food and to affect specific gastrointestinal functions related to digestion and absorption of nutrients. For many of the more recently identified peptides, however, stimuli for release and physiological functions are unknown. Im...
متن کاملPeptides that regulate food intake: separable mechanisms for dorsal hindbrain CART peptide to inhibit gastric emptying and food intake.
We investigated whether dorsal hindbrain and/or peripheral cocaine- and amphetamine-regulated transcript peptide (CARTp) acts to suppress gastric emptying of a caloric stimulus. Furthermore, effects of dorsal hindbrain CARTp on sucrose consumption and licking microstructure was studied, as well as the possible contribution of corticotropin-releasing factor (CRF) receptors to mediate effects of ...
