The 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 کاملPeptides 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 کاملRegulating food intake.
EVERY ORGANISM INGESTS FOOD (energy). If it takes in too little, it will starve; if it takes in too much, it will become obese. Too little is readily defined as caloric intake less than expenditure, and too much is simply the opposite. Multiple regulatory pathways are known that promote and inhibit feeding and thus regulate energy balance. However, these pathways and their interactions remain i...

متن کاملAfferent signals regulating food intake.
Food intake is a regulated system. Afferent signals provide information to the central nervous system, which is the centre for the control of satiety or food seeking. Such signals can begin even before food is ingested through visual, auditory and olfactory stimuli. One of the recent interesting findings is the demonstration that there are selective fatty acid taste receptors on the tongue of r...
