Neural Control of Hunger, Appetite, and Satiety **
Hunger, appetite, and satiety are often regarded as problems in the physiology of digestion. In recent years, however, they have been studied more and more commonly as functions of the brain. This latter point of view, i.e., neurophysiology, is used in the paper which follows, and the regulation of food intake is here described in terms of mechanisms and reactions that characterize the nervous ...
متن کاملcompactifications and representations of transformation semigroups
this thesis deals essentially (but not from all aspects) with the extension of the notion of semigroup compactification and the construction of a general theory of semitopological nonaffine (affine) transformation semigroup compactifications. it determines those compactification which are universal with respect to some algebric or topological properties. as an application of the theory, it is i...
15 صفحه اولHunger and satiety: one brain for two?
UNDERSTANDING THE PHYSIOLOGICAL controls of eating and developing effective pharmacological tools to reduce eating has never been more important. The modern world faces an unprecedented obesity epidemic, and the current treatment strategies are rather unsuccessful. One possible solution may be a combination or cocktail therapy. Obesity control research has been more focused on “long-term” adipo...
متن کاملHunger and Satiety Gauge Reward Sensitivity
Many of the neurocircuits and hormones known to underlie the sensations of hunger and satiety also substantially alter the activity of the dopaminergic reward system. Much interest lies in the ways that hunger, satiety, and reward tie together, as the epidemic of obesity seems tied to the recent development and mass availability of highly palatable foods. In this review, we will first discuss t...
متن کاملRole of gastrointestinal factors in hunger and satiety in man.
There is, we feel, a strong case to be made for a major influence of gastrointestinal factors in the control of eating behaviour in humans. Moreover, the findings suggest that satiety and hunger are controlled by different gastrointestinal mechanisms. Gastric distension is perhaps the most important factor that stops people eating, but a true feeling of satiety also requires the presence of nut...
