Gut-brain axis: Central impact of gut peptides and metabolic drug on monoamine neurotransmission
Gastrointestinal peptides like insulin and glucagon-like peptide are not only essential metabolic hormones but can also modulate important brain function, unrelated to feeding behaviour and glucose homeostasis. Different evidence suggests that these peptides, as well as synthetic insulin …

Experimental studies on the control and regulation of feeding in the common carp, Cyprinus carpio (L. )
… of food intake, and to investigate the role of gut peptides in the control of food intake. A range of techniques were employed in pursuit of these objectives. Behavioural studies were used to investigate feeding patterns, and to assess the effects of small electrolytic lesions placed in the …

Characterisation of L-cell secretory mechanisms and colonic enteroendocrine cell subpopulations
Enteroendocrine cells (EECs) are chemosensitive cells of the gastrointestinal epithelium that exert a wide range of physiological effects via production and secretion of hormones in response to ingested nutrients, bacterial metabolites and systemic signals. Glucagon-like peptide-1 (GLP-1) is one …
