Journal ArticleDOI

Nicotine's effect on hypothalamic neurotransmitters and appetite regulation.

TL;DR: Nicotine's hypophagic effect was associated with increased 5HT and DA in LHA, whereas hyperphagia after nicotine cessation was accompanied by decreased concentrations of the neurotransmitters, suggesting that nicotine affects appetite regulation, in part by modulation of LHA-DA and 5HT.
Journal ArticleDOI

Clinical and metabolic effects of different parenteral nutrition regimens in patients undergoing allogeneic bone marrow transplantation.

TL;DR: The results obtained suggest that the use of lipid-based TPN after allogeneic BMT is associated with lower incidence of lethal A-GVHD and hyperglycemia, without negatively affecting the EGT of infused cells.
Journal Article

Tumor-induced changes in host metabolism: a possible marker of neoplastic disease.

TL;DR: Among other amino acids, free tryptophan seems to be the best candidate as a new useful marker for monitoring neoplastic disease and, based on the understanding of the differences in plasma amino acid profiles, more specific and rational antineoplastic strategies may arise.
Journal ArticleDOI

Potential Strategies for Ameliorating Early Cancer Anorexia

TL;DR: Serotoninergic and dopaminergic systems are involved in the etiology of cancer anorexia through changes in food intake mediated via the VMN by a decrease in meal number.
