Effects of palatable diets on appetite regulation, appetite peptides and neurogenesis.
Obesity is increasing throughout the world at an epidemic rate, partly due to increased consumption of diets rich in fat and/or sugar. Ghrelin and leptin are hormones, originating from the periphery, involved in the regulation of food intake and of maintaining energy homeostasis. Circulating …

Effect of Low vs High Eating Frequency on Perceived Appetite, Plasma Appetite Hormones, and Appetite Relationships: A Component of the Frequency of Eating and Satiety Hormones (FRESH) Study
Purpose Human appetite hormones are affected by various factors and there is a lack of detailed evidence on the impact of eating frequency on self-reported and serum markers of appetite. If self-reported measures of appetite and serum biomarkers are dysregulated, imbalanced caloric intake could …

Eating Frequency, Disease-Related Biomarkers and Appetite
… reducing the risk for disease and lowering appetite. Participants in this randomized crossover study completed two intervention phases lasting three weeks each: one of low eating frequency ("low-EF"; 3 eating occasions/day) and one of high eating frequency ("high-EF"; 8 eating …

MOLECULAR MECHANISMS OF APPETITE AND ENERGY BALANCE
Hypothalamic synaptic transmission has been largely understated in the regulation of appetitive behaviours. Environmental or epigenetic changes on synapse-specific activity may predispose individuals to obesogenic behaviours. We sought to address this by deleting active zone protein, ELKS1 and …

The role of the free fatty acid, lauric acid, in appetite regulation and its potential as an appetite-suppressant.
… may have the potential to be utilised as an oral appetite-suppressant. The study in Chapter 9 investigated the effects of increasing doses of orally ingested C12 between 2 – 6 g on appetite and energy intake. While oral ingestion of C12 had no effect on appetite perceptions, subsequent energy …

Novel nutrient based approaches for appetite regulation and obesity
… the daily diet has been shown to contribute to appetite management and thus has the potential to help prevent obesity. These benefits have contributed to the increasing protein consumption observed globally over the past few decades. Plant-based proteins may serve as a more environmentally …

Regulation and Pharmaceutical Intervention of Appetite in South American Camelids
… environmental stress. While some pharmacological appetite stimulants have been used clinically in camelids, none have been critically evaluated. Mirtazapine is a noradrenergic and specific serotonergic antidepressant used in dogs and cats for appetite stimulation and weight gain. The …

Problematising Big Food’s appetite for policymaking the case of childhood obesity
Big Food companies, such as Coca-Cola, claim they ‘are helping to develop workable solutions to address obesity – by partnering with government, academia, health societies and other responsible members of civil society’ (Coca-Cola, 2011: 1). Big Food’s reinvention as public health promoter means …

Hypothalamic mechanisms of appetite regulation involve stress response and epigenetic modification
Appetite regulation is primarily mediated by the hypothalamus, within which many neurotransmitters that regulate feeding are shared by the stress response circuitry. Stressors, especially those occur during critical periods of life, influence epigenetic programming and gene expression in the …

Role of appetite-regulating peptides in adipose physiology in broiler chicks
… chicken adipocyte differentiation. Another appetite-regulatory peptide, alpha-melanocyte stimulating hormone (α-MSH), is anorexigenic and mediates lipolysis in adipose tissue, but effects on fat in avians are unreported. The second objective was thus to determine the effects of exogenous …

Appetite Regulatory Neural Circuitry in the Prenatal Testosterone Treated and Obese Ewe
… The first aim of this thesis was to characterize appetite regulatory neurons in the sheep brain which express both agouti-related protein (AgRP) and neuropeptide Y (NPY), or proopiomelanocortin (POMC) and cocaine- and amphetamine- regulated transcript (CART). We then asked whether this circuitry …

An exploration of lipids with the potential to influence appetite and food intake
… which have the potential to beneficially affect appetite, followed by a systematic review and meta-analysis on medium-chain triglycerides (MCT) was conducted. A series of three experiments followed: 1) a comparison of the satiety response to MCT and conjugated linoleic acid in individuals with …
