چکیده
Methods The body mass index (BMI), waist and hip circumference, blood pressure (systolic/diastolic), lipid profile, fasting glucose, insulin, leptin, neuropeptide Y(NPY), amylin were measured in 56 children (24 obese children and 32 non-obese controls). We calculated HOMA-IR and evaluated the relationship between each anthropometric data, metabolic bio-marker and diet regulating factor (leptin, NPY, amylin).

متن کاملAmylin and Social Stress Amylin blunts hyperphagia and reduces weight and fat gain during recovery in socially stressed rats
During recovery from social stress in a visible burrow system (VBS), during which a dominance hierarchy is formed among the males, rats display hyperphagia and gain weight preferentially as visceral adipose tissue. By proportionally increasing visceral adiposity, social stress may contribute to the establishment of metabolic disorder. Amylin was administered to rats fed ad libitum during recove...

متن کاملThe receptive function of hypothalamic and brainstem centres to hormonal and nutrient signals affecting energy balance.
The hypothalamic arcuate nucleus (ARC) and the area postrema (AP) represent targets for hormonal and metabolic signals involved in energy homoeostasis, e.g. glucose, amylin, insulin, leptin, peptide YY (PYY), glucagon-like peptide 1 (GLP-1) and ghrelin. Orexigenic neuropeptide Y expressing ARC neurons are activated by food deprivation and inhibited by feeding in a nutrient-dependent manner. PYY...
