چکیده

Glucagon-like peptide 1 is a compound known to cause reduced food intake in mammals, though its action on feed intake in fish is unknown. The clear differences in the effects of GLP-1 on mammalian and teleostean glucose homeostasis suggest that we cannot assume a similar action of GLP-1 on feeding in mammals and fish. In this study the effects and specificity of centrally administered GLP-1 on feed intake were examined. It was demonstrated that intracerebroventricular (ICV) injection of glucagon-like peptide 1 (GLP-1) in the channel catfish (Ictalurus punctatus) is a potent inhibitor of feed intake with a dose of 0.25 ng g(-1) body wt. reducing feed intake by 50%. The weak response to intraperitoneal (i.p.) and intravenous (i.v.) injection treatments with GLP-1 suggests the major effects on feed intake are centrally mediated. GLP-1 action on feed intake was not antagonized by ICV injection of exendin(9-39). Immunoneutralization of GLP-1 by ICV injection of antisalmon GLP-1 antisera did not affect feed intake over 48 h, while ICV injection of GLP-1 at a dose of 30 ng g(-1) body wt. reduced feed intake for over 20 h. Additionally, there is some evidence that GLP-1 caused gastric evacuation. We conclude that GLP-1 is a potent inhibitor of feeding in fish, but its involvement in feed intake regulation under physiological conditions remains to be clarified.

Arcuate Glucagon-Like Peptide 1 Receptors Regulate Glucose Homeostasis but Not Food Intake

OBJECTIVE Glucagon-like peptide-1 (GLP-1) promotes glucose homeostasis through regulation of islet hormone secretion, as well as hepatic and gastric function. Because GLP-1 is also synthesized in the brain, where it regulates food intake, we hypothesized that the central GLP-1 system regulates glucose tolerance as well. RESEARCH DESIGN AND METHODS We used glucose tolerance tests and hyperinsu...

Effects of glucagon-like peptide 1 on appetite and body weight: focus on the CNS.

The delivery of nutrients to the gastrointestinal tract after food ingestion activates the secretion of several gut-derived mediators, including the incretin hormone glucagon-like peptide 1 (GLP-1). GLP-1 receptor agonists (GLP-1RA), such as exenatide and liraglutide, are currently employed successfully in the treatment of patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus. GLP-1RA improve glycaemic contro...

The role of glucagon-like peptide 1 in the regulation of glucose homeostasis and satiety.

Glucagon-like peptide 1 (GLP-1) is an insulinotropic peptide secreted by intestinal L-cells (mucosal cells belonging to the APUD (amine precursor uptake and decarboxylation) system in response to oral food intake. GLP-1 is co-encoded in the proglucagon gene and while post-translational processing of proglucagon in the pancreas gives rise to glucagon, GLP-1 (7–36 amide) is produced in the intest...

The gut hormone glucagon-like peptide-1 produced in brain: is this physiologically relevant?

Glucagon-like peptide-1 (GLP-1) is both a peripherally expressed incretin and a centrally active neuropeptide. Brain derived GLP-1, produced in preproglucagon (PPG) neurons located in the nucleus of the solitary tract (NTS) and projecting to numerous brain regions, is ideally placed to activate central GLP-1 receptors in a range of autonomic control areas. In vivo analysis of central GLP-1 usin...
