Journal ArticleDOI

Ghrelin enhances appetite and increases food intake in humans.

TL;DR: Ghrelin is the first circulating hormone demonstrated to stimulate food intake in man and is a potentially important new regulator of the complex systems controlling food intake and body weight.
Journal ArticleDOI

Inhibition of food intake in obese subjects by peptide YY3-36.

TL;DR: It is found that obese subjects were not resistant to the anorectic effects of PYY, and endogenous PYY levels were low in obese subjects, suggesting that PYY deficiency may contribute to the pathogenesis of obesity.
Journal ArticleDOI

The short-chain fatty acid acetate reduces appetite via a central homeostatic mechanism

TL;DR: It is demonstrated through 13C high-resolution magic-angle-spinning that 13C acetate from fermentation of 13C-labelled carbohydrate in the colon increases hypothalamic 13Cacetate above baseline levels, suggesting that acetate has a direct role in central appetite regulation.
Journal ArticleDOI

Oxyntomodulin Suppresses Appetite and Reduces Food Intake in Humans

TL;DR: Elevated levels of endogenous OXM associated with disorders of the gastrointestinal tract may contribute to anorexia, and central injection of OXM reduces food intake and weight gain in rodents.
