These two neuronal populations are sensitive to circulating molecules and re...

15 صفحه اولRole of Hypothalamic Melanocortin System in Adaptation of Food Intake to Food Protein Increase in Mice
The hypothalamic melanocortin system--the melanocortin receptor of type 4 (MC4R) and its ligands: α-melanin-stimulating hormone (α-MSH, agonist, inducing hypophagia), and agouti-related protein (AgRP, antagonist, inducing hyperphagia)--is considered to play a central role in the control of food intake. We tested its implication in the mediation of the hunger-curbing effects of protein-enriched ...

15 صفحه اولThe melanocortin system as a central integrator of direct and indirect controls of food intake.
THE NEURAL CONTROL OF FOOD INTAKE and body weight is a complex function in which cognitive and emotional variables, as well as long-term signals of metabolic status and fuel storage, are integrated with short-term signals related to individual meals. Several years ago, Smith (20) proposed a useful classification of the myriad signals that influence the amount of food eaten during individual mea...
