Opioid regulation of ingestive behavior in the domestic fowl
… endogenous opioid peptides in the regulation of ingestive behavior in the domestic fowl. In the first study, the dose-response relationships of two opioid antagonists, naloxone and naltrexone, were evaluated in Rock-Comish (RC) and Single-Comb White Leghorn (SCWL) cockerels. Naloxone and …

Molecular-Genetic and Behavioral Analysis of the Functionality of Patterning in the Trigeminal Neuraxis
… system is required for several classes of behavior, including feeding and active vibrissal sensing, but the functional role of the patterning in these behaviors is unknown. We used two mutant animals lacking patterning in two areas of the vibrissal neuraxis to examine the functional role of …

DIETARY AND EXERCISE EFFECTS ON NEURAL RESPONSES TO VISUAL FOOD STIMULI IN OVERWEIGHT AND OBESE ADULTS
… caused some investigators to question whether behavioral interventions such as dietary manipulations or physical activity might modulate processing of food cues in reward-related brain regions. The use of functional magnetic resonance imaging (fMRI) to measure neural responses to visual food …

The effects of distraction on amount of food consumed, food preference, and satiety
Distracted eating is the intentional consumption of a meal while engaged in a secondary activity to the extent that the significance or memory of the meal is diminished. Limited published studies suggest distracted eating leads to increased intake; however, results of the present study do not …

A pilot study on the effects of bariatric surgery on flavor perception and eating bevahior 2-5 years post-surgery
… experience reductions in problematic eating behaviors, such as emotional eating and frequency of food cravings. Unfortunately, little is known as to if these beneficial reductions last long term post-surgery. Therefore, we tested two hypotheses in this thesis based on the aforementioned gaps …

Effects of alcohol and ∆9-tetrahydrocannabinol on energy balance and cognitive behaviors
… and 2 receptors (CB1R and CB2R) to modulate many behavioral and metabolic processes, including feeding and glucose homeostasis. For several reasons, reports on the long-term effects of alcohol and THC use on energy balance, glucose homeostasis, and cognitive behaviors in both human and rodent …

Identification of central circuitry components mediating anorexigenic properties of oxytocin
… OT’s anorexigenic effects on both aspects of ingestive behavior are mediated by the OT receptor (OTr) expressed broadly in the brain, however, our understanding of which specific sites relay anorexigenic actions of OT is limited. Thus far, only the nucleus accumbens and ventral tegmental area …

Smooth Muscle-Specific Removal of Brain-Derived Neurotrophic Factor Results in Increased Vagal Afferent Innervation to the Intestine and Increased Satiation in Mice
… afferent innervation and analysis of feeding behavior were compared to wild type (wt) mice. IGLEs and axons in the GI tract were labeled by injection of the nerve tracer horseradish peroxidase conjugated to wheatgerm agglutinin (WGA-HRP) into the nodose ganglion. Nodose ganglion neurons were …
