Recent advances in the physiology of eating.

چکیده
Since the discovery of the protein product of the ob/ob gene, leptin, knowledge of the neurochemical pathways involved in the regulation of feeding has increased enormously. Our understanding of the mechanisms regulating food intake in man has also progressed greatly over a similar time span. Previous research into the regulation of food intake has largely proceeded through a reductionist approach, defining ever-smaller components of these mechanisms. This research strategy has been very productive and instructive, and has yielded a great deal of information on the specific putative components linking energy status and food intake. However, to fully understand the regulation of feeding it is important that these components are systematically reconstructed to investigate relevant interactions. In the present review recent data relating to interactions between systems proposed to be involved in feeding regulation will be highlighted. The review will be directed predominantly (but not exclusively) towards the regulation of human feeding.

Eating Time Modulations of Physiology and Health: Life Lessons from Human and Ruminant Models
Tissue nutrient supply may be synchronized with endogenous physiological rhythms to optimize animal and human health. Glucose tolerance and insulin sensitivity have endogenous rhythms that are not essentially dependent on food type and eating. Human glucose tolerance declines as day comes into night. Based on such evolutionary findings, large evening meals must be avoided to reduce risks of vis...
متن کاملThe roles of RFamide-related peptides (RFRPs), mammalian gonadotropin-inhibitory hormone (GnIH) orthologues in female reproduction
Objective(s): To benefit from reproduction and deal with challenges in the environmental conditions, animals must adapt internal physiology to maximize the reproduction rate. Maladaptive variations in the neurochemical systems and reproductive system can lead to manifestation of several significant mammalian reprocesses, including mammalian ovarian lifespan. RFamide-related peptide (RFRP, Rfrp)...
متن کاملRole of emotion regulation difficulties as a mediator of the relationship alexithymia and disturbance eating among students
The prevalence of disordered eating behaviors has been reported to increase in recent decades; on the other hand one situation that can impede the regulation of emotions is alexithymia. Therefore, the search for specific psychological variables that may contribute to the etiology of this disorder is of great importance. The current study examined the mediating role of the emotion regulation dif...
متن کاملSocio-Ecological Factors Related to Eating Behavior and Obesity in Students
The prevalence of obesity in adolescents has increased over the past three decades. Recent evidence has shown that in developed countries, about one in five teens is obese (Abdelghaffar et al., 2020). In Iran, the prevalence of overweight and obesity is 23% (Moghimi-Dehkordi et al., 2020). Improper eating behaviors and obesity are major concerns in adolescence that can be associated with the ri...

Several fuzzy connectives, including those proposed by Lotfi Zadeh, can be seen as linear extensions of the Boolean connectives from the scale ${0,1}$ into the scale $[0,1]$. We discuss these extensions, in particular, we focus on the dualities arising from the Boolean dualities. These dualities allow to transfer the results from some particular class of extended Boolean functions, e.g., from c...
