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
Use of recombinant human soluble TNF receptor in anorectic tumor-bearing rats
Giovanni F. Torelli,Michael M. Meguid,Lyle L. Moldawer,Carl K. Edwards,Hyune Ju Kim,Janna L. Carter,Alessandro Laviano,Filippo Rossi Fanelli +7 more
TL;DR: The data suggest that TNF-alpha, in addition to other cytokines, contributes to the anorexia of tumor growth, probably mediated via the hypothalamus.
Journal ArticleDOI
Clinical and metabolic effects of different parenteral nutrition regimens in patients undergoing allogeneic bone marrow transplantation.
Maurizio Muscaritoli,L. Conversano,Giovanni F. Torelli,William Arcese,Saveria Capria,Carlo Cangiano,Clorinda Falcone,Filippo Rossi Fanelli +7 more
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.
F. Rossi Fanelli,Carlo Cangiano,Maurizio Muscaritoli,L. Conversano,Giovanni F. Torelli,Antonia Cascino +5 more
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
Madhulika G. Varma,Giovanni F. Torelli,Michael M. Meguid,Jia-ke Chai,Vladimír Bláha,Alessandro Laviano,Hyune Ju Kim +6 more
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.
