Abstract
Sleep-disordered breathing (SDB) is characterized by recurrent reductions or interruptions in airflow during sleep, termed hypopneas and apneas, respectively. SDB impairs sleep quality and is linked to substantive health issues including cardiovascular and metabolic disorders, as well as cognitive decline. Recent evidence suggests a link between gut microbiota (GM) composition and sleep apnea. Indeed, GM, a community of microorganisms residing in the gut, has emerged as a potential player in various diseases, and several studies have identified associations between sleep apnea and GM diversity along with shifts in bacterial populations. Additionally, the concept of "leaky gut," a compromised intestinal barrier with potentially increased inflammation, has emerged as another key player in the potential bidirectional relationship between GM and sleep apnea. One of the potential effectors could be extracellular vesicles (EVs) underlying gut-brain communication pathways that are relevant to sleep regulation and function. Thus, therapeutic implications afforded by targeting the GM or exosomes for sleep apnea management have surfaced as promising areas of research. This review explores current understanding of the relationship between GM, exosomes and sleep apnea, highlighting key research dynamics and potential mechanisms. A comprehensive review of the literature was conducted, focusing on studies investigating GM composition, intestinal barrier function and gut-brain communication in relation to sleep apnea.

[PMID: 40431402 PMCID: PMC12114007 DOI: 10.3390/nu17101662] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 04/02/2025] [Revised: 05/07/2025] [Accepted: 05/12/2025] [Indexed: 05/29/2025] Open
Abstract
Introduction: Obesity is a global health problem requiring effective interventions to achieve weight loss and maintain it in the long term. A major challenge for clinicians is weight regain (WR), defined as progressive weight gain following successful weight loss. WR is affected by multiple factors, including psychological traits linked to specific brain alterations. Understanding these mechanisms is crucial in developing strategies to prevent WR and to ensure effective weight control. Objectives: This narrative review aims to gather current findings on the psychological and neurobiological determinants of WR and to discuss the interplay between these factors. Methods: A literature search was conducted on PubMed, Medline, and Web of Science for English-language studies published between December 1990 and November 2024. Results: WR is driven by interconnected psychological and neurobiological factors that influence eating behavior and the regulation of body weight. Certain personality traits and emotional patterns are associated with specific changes in brain activity, which together affect vulnerability to WR. Although distinct mechanisms can be identified, the complexity of homeostatic and nonhomeostatic appetite control suggests that no single factor predominates. Conclusions: This review highlights the dynamic interplay between psychological and neurobiological predictors of WR. However, due to the narrative nature of this review, the focus on selected determinants, and the limited quality and size of the available studies, further research is needed to comprehensively understand causality and to improve relapse prevention strategies.

Abstract
Oat beta-glucan has been reported to be beneficial to glucose and lipid metabolism in human and animal studies. However, weight-loss was shown only in animal studies, whereas human studies reported an improvement in hyperlipidemia. This study investigated the effects of oat beta-glucan on obesity and related metabolic disturbances at the doses based on the Chinese recommended daily intake of 100 g of whole grains which contain approximately 10 % β-glucan. Our data showed that 200 mg/kg efficiently blocked the process of obesity as determined by significantly decreased body weight (7.57 g) and adipose tissue mass (5.24 g) after the 4-week intervention. Lower serum low-density lipoprotein cholesterol (0.32 mmol/L) and reduced atherosclerosis were also observed. Oat beta-glucan improved hepatic lipid metabolism at the low dose (100 mg/kg) and restored it to normal levels in lean mice at the high dose. To our knowledge, our study is the first to analyze the effects of oat beta-glucan on adipose stem cells and reveal the anti-obesity mechanism of oat β-glucan is modulating the adipose stem cell microenvironment. This study determined an efficient supplementary dose for blocking high-fat diet-induced obesity, which not only improved lipid metabolism but also altered stem cell composition in adipose tissue.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Sarcopenia is a known risk factor for poor prognosis in chronic pancreatitis, however the impact of sarcopenia in acute pancreatitis (AP) is unknown. This systematic review examines the prognostic impact of sarcopenia on clinical outcomes in patients with acute pancreatitis. METHODS A systematic literature of Medline, EMBASE, Cochrane, and the World Health Organisation International Clinical Trials Registry Platform was undertaken to identify articles relating to sarcopenia, AP, and computed tomography imaging. Data collected was related to studies' demographic population, presence of sarcopenia, sarcopenia assessment methodology, obesity, pancreatitis severity, and short- and long-term complications of AP. RESULTS A total of four out of 114 unique peer-review articles were included in this review, encompassing 947 patients in total. Of the analysable data, 200 patients had sarcopenia and 640 did not. There was marked heterogeneity in the determination of the presence of sarcopenia between studies. No significant association was found between sarcopenia and pancreatic necrosis, organ failure, venous thromboembolism, recurrent acute pancreatitis, or mortality. CONCLUSION Sarcopenia remains highly prevalent in patients suffering from acute pancreatitis. There is insufficient evidence to suggest sarcopenia is associated with poorer outcomes in patients with acute pancreatitis. More high-powered studies are required to further characterise the impact of sarcopenia on patients with acute pancreatitis.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE This study aimed to compare the effects of enteral nutrition (EN) administered via multiroute or via monoroute on metabolic regulation in intestinal ischemia-reperfusion (II/R) injury rat model. METHODS The rats were divided into sham operation and II/R injury groups. The rats in each group were further treated with either multiroute or monoroute EN. Rats subjected to multiroute EN were administered a continuous infusion of 30 kcal/kg × day of nutrition via a gastric tube and additionally provided with 0.5 g of standard rat forage for oral intake q8h (for a total of approximately 20 kcal/kg × day) each day. Conversely, rats on the monoroute regimen underwent a continuous infusion of 50 kcal/kg × day of EN through a gastric tube. Hypercatabolism was evaluated by assessing skeletal muscle protein synthesis and atrophy, and insulin resistance. Moreover, serum gastrointestinal hormone levels, hypothalamic ghrelin, and neuropeptide pro-opiomelanocortin (POMC) were detected. RESULTS In rats subjected to II/R injury, multiroute EN more effectively restored serum and hypothalamic ghrelin levels, decreased the expression of the POMC neuropeptide, decreased skeletal muscle atrophy, and enhanced skeletal muscle synthesis. These effects collectively contributed to a reduction in muscle wasting, an improvement in hypercatabolic status, and a mitigation of body weight loss. CONCLUSION Compared with monoroute nutrition, multiroute EN may further improve hypercatabolic metabolism, reduce muscle wasting, and prevent weight loss in II/R injury rat. This research suggested that an optimized multiroute EN regimen is superior to the monoroute EN approach.

Abstract
The rising prevalence of treatment-resistant neuropsychiatric disorders underscores the need for innovative and effective treatment strategies. The gut microbiota (GM) plays a pivotal role in the progression of these diseases, influencing the brain and mental health through the gut-brain axis (GBA). The vagus nerve plays a significant role in the GBA, making it a key area of focus for potential novel therapeutic interventions. Vagus nerve stimulation (VNS) was introduced and approved as a treatment for refractory forms of some neuropsychological disorders, such as depression and epilepsy. Considering its impact on several brain regions that play a vital part in mood, motivation, affection, and cognitive function, the VNS has shown significant therapeutic potential for treating a variety of neuropsychiatric disorders. Using VNS to target the bidirectional communication pathways linking the GM and the VN could present an exciting and novel approach to treating neuropsychological disorders. Imbalances in the GM, such as dysbiosis, can impair the communication pathways between the gut and the brain, contributing to the development of neuropsychological disorders. VNS shows potential for modulating these interconnected systems, helping to restore balance. Interestingly, the composition of the GM may also influence the effectiveness of VNS, as it has the potential to modify the brain's response to this therapeutic approach. This study provides a comprehensive analysis of a relatively unexplored but noteworthy interaction between VNS and GM in the treatment of neuropsychiatric disorders. In addition, we discussed the mechanisms, therapeutic potential, and clinical implications of VNS on the GBA across neuropsychiatric disorders.

Clin Nutr 2025; 45:250-261. [PMID: 39842253 DOI: 10.1016/j.clnu.2025.01.005] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 11/11/2024] [Revised: 12/17/2024] [Accepted: 01/05/2025] [Indexed: 01/24/2025]
Abstract
BACKGROUND AND AIMS This systematic review and meta-analysis aimed to examine the effect of Ramadan intermittent fasting on appetite-regulating hormones including leptin, ghrelin, insulin, gastrin, glucagon-like peptide-1, peptide YY, and cholecystokinin. METHODS We searched the MEDLINE, Embase, Cochrane Library, CINAHL, Google Scholar, and Web of Science databases to identify relevant research on appetite-regulating hormones during Ramadan intermittent fasting, published until the end of March 2024. RESULTS Data from 16 eligible studies comprising 664 participants (341, 51.4 % male) with a mean ± standard deviation age of 33.9 ± 10.8 years were included. The meta-analysis included 12 studies with complete leptin data, showing no significant effect of Ramadan intermittent fasting on leptin concentrations (standardised mean difference - SMD = -0.11 μg/mL, 95 % CI: -0.36 to 0.14). Analysis of three studies with complete ghrelin data demonstrated a significant increase in ghrelin concentrations following Ramadan intermittent fasting (SMD = 0.31 pg/mL, 95 % CI: 0.03 to 0.60). Six studies examining insulin concentrations pre- and post-fasting revealed no significant effect on insulin concentrations (SMD = -0.24 μU/mL, 95 % CI: -0.54 to 0.02). Similarly, analysis of three studies with complete gastrin data showed no significant effect of intermittent fasting on gastrin concentrations (SMD = 0.23 pg/mL, 95 % CI: -0.71 to 0.99). CONCLUSION Ramadan intermittent fasting significantly increases ghrelin concentrations while showing no significant effects on leptin, insulin, and gastrin. While ghrelin findings were consistent across studies, the high heterogeneity in leptin studies suggests further research to better understand the effects of Ramadan intermittent fasting on appetite-regulating hormones.

Abstract
Deoxynivalenol (DON) is one of the most prevalent mycotoxins and can induce weight loss and vomiting in animals. This study aimed to elucidate the molecular mechanisms underlying DON-induced anorexia in rabbits through the microbial-gut-brain axis. A total of forty rabbits were randomly divided into a DON group and a control group, receiving 1.5 mg/kg.BW of DON and an equivalent volume of saline daily via intragastric administration, respectively. The pre-treatment period lasted for 7 days, followed by a formal experimental period of 24 days. The findings revealed that DON exposure significantly reduced daily food intake and weight gain, leading to intestinal apoptosis and barrier injuries. 16S rRNA sequencing data indicated that DON exposure decreased the diversity and richness of cecal microflora, suppressed probiotic populations, and disrupted host lipid metabolism. RNA-Seq and iTRAQ data were used to cross-analyze the shared differentially expressed genes (DEGs) and differentially expressed proteins (DEPs) in the hypothalamus and jejunum, along with their shared enrichment pathways, indicating that TNF-α, NF-κB, and NPY may play pivotal roles in DON-induced anorexia. qRT-PCR and Western blotting results confirmed significant increases in mRNA and protein expression levels of TNF-α, NF-κB and 5-HT2A in both the hypothalamus and jejunum. In conclusion, DON ingestion in rabbits can disrupt the intestinal barrier, up-regulate the expression of IFN-γ, TNF-α, NF-κB, and 5-HT2A in the intestine, and trigger an immuno-inflammatory response in the hypothalamus via the microbial-gut-brain axis, ultimately resulting in appetite suppression and weight loss.

Abstract
Yangtze sturgeon is an endangered fish species. After weaning, some Yangtze sturgeon fry refuse to consume any food, which causes a low survival rate during the artificial breeding period. This study showed that the body length and body weight of failed weaning Yangtze sturgeons were significantly lower than those of successful weaning sturgeons. Since the brain is the center of appetite regulation, RNA-seq of the brain was employed to analyze the differentially expressed genes and their biological functions in successfully and unsuccessfully weaned fry. After that, 82,151 unigenes and 3222 DEGs were obtained. Based on the results of RNA-seq, appetite factors, including POMC, CART, NPY and AgRP, were cloned, and then a weaning experiment was designed to explore the changes in appetite after feeding a microcapsule diet (weaning group). The results showed that, during the weaning period, the expression of CART was increased on the 1st and 3rd days but decreased on the 5th, 6th, 8th and 10th days. The expression of AgRP was downregulated on the 1st and 3rd days but upregulated on the 5th, 6th, 8th and 10th days. These findings indicate that appetite was suppressed in the early and middle periods but enhanced in the latter period of weaning and that CART may play an important role in the appetite-suppressing effect.

Abstract
Diet is one of the most important external factor shaping the composition and metabolic activities of the gut microbiome. The gut microbiome plays a crucial role in host health, including immune system development, nutrients metabolism, and the synthesis of bioactive molecules. In addition, the gut microbiome has been described as critical for the development of several mental disorders. Nutritional psychiatry is an emerging field of research that may provide a link between diet, microbial function, and brain health. In this study, we have reviewed the influence of different diet types, such as Western, Mediterranean, vegetarian, and ketogenic, on the gut microbiota composition and function, and their implication in various neuropsychiatric and psychological disorders.

Abstract
Obesity is a worldwide health issue. Effective and safe methods for obesity management are highly desirable. In the current study, hyperbaric oxygen (HBO) treatment was investigated as a potential treatment against obesity-associated hyperphagia and hyperenergy intake. Diet induced obesity (DIO) mice model was established with high fat diet (HFD) feeding, HBO was then co-administered. Food and energy intake were assessed with nocturnal food intake assay. Immunohistochemistry for c-Fos was performed for neuronal activation in arcuate nucleus (ARC), paraventricular nucleus of hypothalamus (PVN) and lateral parabrachial nucleus (LPBN) of brain. Additionally, enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA) in serum and immunofluorescence in LPBN were performed. Results indicated that HBO co-treatment effectively decreased food and energy intake in DIO mice, reverted the abnormal neuronal activation in the ARC and PVN, and enhanced both peripheral and central nesfatin-1 peptide levels without affecting serum leptin levels. While SHU9119 microinjection in LPBN effectively abolished the beneficial effects of HBO on body weight, visceral fat, nocturnal feeding and energy intake in DIO mice. In conclusion, HBO treatment could effectively protect against HFD-induced increase of food and energy intake, which is associated with its central effects against abnormal neuronal activation in ARC and PVN and enhanced peptide levels of nesfatin-1 both centrally and peripherally. The melanocortin system downstream of nesfatin-1 may exert a potential effect in this process.

Abstract
Obesity, a significant health crisis, arises from an imbalance between energy intake and expenditure. Enhancing appetite regulation has garnered substantial attention from researchers as a novel and effective strategy for weight management. The melanocortin system, situated in the hypothalamus, is recognized as a critical node in the regulation of appetite. It integrates long-term and short-term hormone signals from the periphery as well as nutrients, forming a complex network of interacting feedback mechanisms with the gut-brain axis, significantly contributing to the regulation of energy homeostasis. Appetite regulation by bioactive compounds has been a focus of intensive research due to their favorable safety profiles and easy accessibility. These bioactive compounds, derived from a variety of plant and animal sources, modulate the melanocortin system and influence appetite and energy homeostasis through multiple pathways: central nervous system, peripheral hormones, and intestinal microbiota. Here, we review the anatomy, function, and receptors of the melanocortin system, outline the long-term and short-term regulatory hormones that act on the melanocortin system, and discuss the bioactive compounds and their mechanisms of action that exert a regulatory effect on appetite by targeting the melanocortin system. This review contributes to a better understanding of how bioactive compounds regulate appetite via the melanocortin system, thereby providing nutritional references for citizens' dietary preferences.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE Combining different pharmaceuticals may be beneficial when treating disorders with complex neurobiology, including alcohol use disorder (AUD). The gut-brain peptides amylin and GLP-1 may be of potential interest as they individually reduce alcohol intake in rodents. While the combination of amylin receptor (AMYR) and glucagon-like peptide-1 receptor (GLP-1R) agonists have been found to decrease feeding and body weight in obese male rats synergistically, their combined impact on alcohol intake is unknown. METHODS Therefore, the effect of the combination of an AMYR (salmon calcitonin (sCT)) and a GLP-1R (dulaglutide) agonist on alcohol intake in rats of both sexes was explored in two separate alcohol-drinking experiments. The first alcohol-drinking experiment evaluated the potential of adding sCT to an ongoing dulaglutide treatment, whereas the second alcohol-drinking experiment examined the effect when adding sCT and dulaglutide simultaneously. RESULTS When adding sCT to an ongoing dulaglutide treatment, a reduction in alcohol intake was observed in both male and female rats. However, when combining sCT and dulaglutide simultaneously, an initial reduction in alcohol intake was observed in rats of both sexes, whereas tolerance towards treatment was observed. In both alcohol-drinking experiments, this treatment combination consistently decreased food consumption and body weight in males and females. While the treatment combination did not affect inflammatory mediators, the gene expression of AMYR or GLP-1R, it changed fat tissue morphology. CONCLUSIONS Further investigation needs to be done on the combination of AMYR and GLP-1R agonists to assess their combined effects on alcohol intake.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Obesity is a major risk factor for noncommunicable diseases and is associated with a reduced life expectancy of up to 20 years, as well as with other consequences such as unemployment and increased economic burden for society. It is a multifactorial disease, and physiopathology of obesity involves dysregulated calorie utilization and energy balance, disrupted homeostasis of appetite and satiety, lifestyle factors including sedentary lifestyle, lower socioeconomic status, genetic predisposition, epigenetics, and environmental factors. Some endocrine-disrupting chemicals (EDCs) have been proposed as "obesogens" that stimulate adipogenesis leading to obesity. In this review, definition of obesogens, their adverse effects, underlying mechanisms, and metabolic implications will be updated and discussed. SUMMARY Disruption of lipid homeostasis by EDCs involves multiple mechanisms including increase in the number and size of adipocytes, disruption of endocrine-regulated adiposity and metabolism, alteration of hypothalamic regulation of appetite, satiety, food preference and energy balance, and modification of insulin sensitivity in the liver, skeletal muscle, pancreas, gastrointestinal system, and the brain. At a cellular level, obesogens can exert their endocrine disruptive effects by interfering with peroxisome proliferator-activated receptors and steroid receptors. Human exposure to chemical obesogens mainly occurs by ingestion and, to some extent, by inhalation and dermal uptake, usually in an unconscious manner. Persistent pollutants are lipophilic features; thus, they bioaccumulate in adipose tissue. KEY MESSAGES Although there are an increasing number of reports studying the effects of obesogens, their mechanisms of action remain to be elucidated. In addition, epidemiological studies are needed in order to evaluate human exposure to obesogens.

The effects of acute exercise on food intake and appetite in adolescents with and without obesity: A systematic review and meta-analysis. Obes Rev 2024; 25:e13832. [PMID: 39267346 DOI: 10.1111/obr.13832] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 10/05/2023] [Revised: 08/27/2024] [Accepted: 08/28/2024] [Indexed: 09/17/2024]
Abstract
This systematic review and meta-analysis synthesized evidence pertaining to consummatory and appetitive responses to acute exercise in children and adolescents with and without obesity (5-18 years). Articles reporting on supervised, controlled trials of any modality, duration, or intensity with laboratory-measured food intake were found using MEDLINE, EMBASE, and Cochrane up to July 2023. Differences between conditions in laboratory energy and macronutrient intake, appetite sensations, and food reward were quantitatively synthesized using random-effects meta-analyses. Thirty-five studies were eligible for the systematic review of energy intake, consisting of 60 distinct intervention arms with lean (n = 374) and overweight/obesity participants (n = 325; k = 51 eligible for meta-analysis). Study quality as indicated by the Effective Public Healthy Practice Project tool was rated as low and moderate risk of bias for 80% and 20% of studies, respectively. Acute exercise had no significant effect on energy intake during an ad libitum test meal (mean difference [MD] = -4.52 [-30.58, 21.54] kcal, p = .729). Whilst absolute carbohydrate intake was lower after exercise (23 arms; MD = -6.08 [-11.26, -0.91] g, p = .023), the proportion of carbohydrate was not (30 arms; MD = -0.62 [-3.36, 2.12] %, p = .647). A small elevation in hunger (27 arms; MD = 4.56 [0.75, 8.37] mm, p = .021) and prospective food consumption (27 arms; PFC; MD = 5.71 [1.62, 9.80] mm, p = .008) was observed post-exercise, but not immediately prior to the test meal (Interval: Mdn = 30 min, Range = 0-180). Conversely, a modest decrease in explicit wanting for high-fat foods was evident after exercise (10 arms; MD = -2.22 [-3.96, -0.47] mm, p = .019). Exercise intensity (p = .033) and duration (p = .013) moderated food intake only in youth with overweight/obesity, indicating lower intake at high intensity and short duration. Overall, acute exercise does not lead to compensation of energy intake or a meaningful elevation of appetite or food reward and might have a modest benefit in youth with overweight/obesity if sufficiently intense. However, conclusions are limited by substantial methodological heterogeneity and the small number of trials employing high-intensity exercise, especially in youth with overweight/obesity.

Abstract
Lactobacillus plantarum (L. plantarum) has been globally regarded as antibiotic alternative in animal farming in the past few years. However, the potential function of L. plantarum in broilers has not been systemically explored. In this study, a total of 560 one-day-old yellow-feathered broilers were randomly divided into 3 groups, fed with basal diet and drank with L. plantarum HJZW08 (LP) at the concentration of 0 (CON), 1000 × 10^5 (LP1000), and 2000 × 10^5 CFU/L (LP2000) for 70 d. Results showed that the body weight (BW), average daily gain (ADG), average daily feed intake (ADFI), immunoglobulin A (IgA), IgY, and anti-inflammatory interleukin 10 (IL-10) were markedly improved (P < 0.05), while the levels of pro-inflammatory IL-2, IL-1β, IL-6, and tumor necrosis factor-α (TNF-α) in serum were decreased (P < 0.05) in the LP2000 group comparing with the CON group. Besides, LP treatment groups prominently increased the levels and activities of antioxidant enzymes and decreased the content of malondialdehyde (MDA). Additionally, the levels of isobutyric acid in the LP1000 and LP2000 groups and isovaleric acid in the LP2000 group were significantly improved. More importantly, the α-diversity and microbial structure of intestinal microbiota were pronounced altered by LP supplementation. The results showed that only the relative abundance of Actinobacteriota was significantly increased in the LP2000 group, while 6 kinds of bacteria on genus level were significantly changed. For further validation, linear discriminant analysis with effect size (LEfSe) plots revealed that 8 amplicon sequence variants (ASVs) were predominant in the CON group, while Bacteroides and other beneficial species such as Lactimicrobium massiliense (ASV4 and ASV36), Intestinimonas butyriciproducens (ASV71), and Barnesiella viscericola (ASV152 and ASV571) were enriched in the LP groups. Taken together, dietary supplementation with LP obviously enhanced the immune status, antioxidant capacity, and stabilized the cecal microbiota and SCFAs, contributing to the improvement of growth performance of broilers. Our study laid good foundation for the application of probiotic Lactobacillus in animal industry in the future.

Abstract
Capsicum oleoresin has potential health benefits, particularly against obesity markers. Due to its high pungency, few studies have been done to explore the intake of this ingredient. The objective of this study was to use the Capsicum oleoresin (CO) microencapsulated into a high-fat diet to evaluate its metabolic effect on mice. Two formulation containing 15 % solids were prepared: the first (F1) with 5% CO and 95% emulsifier, and the second (F2) with 2.5% corn oil, 2.5% CO, and 95% emulsifier. These formulation were atomized in a spray dryer. Ultra-Performance Liquid Chromatography determined the capsaicin content for both formulations. Mice were divided into two groups: lean control (normocaloric AIN diet, n = 10) and high fat (HF diet: hypercaloric, n = 30), which were subdivided into three subgroups: HF control diet (n = 10); diet F1: HF + 20 % CO oleoresin microparticles (n = 10); and diet F2: HF + 20 % CO microparticles containing corn oil (n = 10). The animals treated with the microparticles showed lower glucose levels than the HF control. Mice fed with HF-containing CO microparticles had cholesterol blood levels similar to that of the lean group and lower (<100 mg/dL) than that of the HF control group (150 mg/dL). Capsicum oleoresin microparticles added to high-fat diets promoted lower weight gain and protected the liver against hepatic steatosis. Leptin levels for mice fed with HF diet plus CO microparticles averaged between 2 and 5 ng/ml, whereas the fat control group developed leptin resistance. Capsicum microparticles evidenced a protective effect against dyslipidemia compared to the fat control group, which suggests their use as a potential ingredient for the control of obesity.

Acute exercise might not affect subsequent appetite responses to a fixed meal in adolescents with obesity: The SMASH exploratory study. Appetite 2024; 202:107644.

Abstract
While an intensity-dependent post-exercise decrease in energy intake (EI) has been described in adolescents with obesity, studies invariably used ad libitum meals, limiting then any conclusions regarding the effect of exercise on post-meal appetitive responses that can be also impacted by the ad libitum nature of the meal. This study analyses appetite and food-reward related responses to a fixed meal after an acute exercise, also exploring the associations between substrate use during exercise and overall daily EI in adolescents with obesity. Thirteen adolescents with obesity (12-16 years, 5 males) randomly complete 2 experimental sessions: (i) a control condition (CON); (ii) a 30-min moderate intensity (65% VO2peak) cycling condition (EX). Energy expenditure and substrate oxidation were measured during both 30 min of rest (CON) or exercise (EX). Ad libitum EI, macronutrient intake and relative EI were assessed at dinner, subjective appetite sensations taken at regular intervals and food reward measured before and after lunch as well as before dinner. Energy and macronutrient intake did not differ between conditions, as well as appetite feelings. A time effect (p = 0.012) was observed between pre and post meal for choice fat bias in both conditions but was only significant within the CON condition (p = 0.004). CHO oxidation during exercise was found correlated with both EI (r = 0.586, p = 0.045), pre-lunch hunger (r = 0.624, p = 0.030), daily AUC for hunger and DTE (r = 0.788, p = 0.002 and r = 0.695; p = 0.012 respectively). This exploratory study highlights that acute exercise might not affect subsequent appetite responses when using a fixed test meal in adolescents with obesity.

Abstract
Cognitive deficits and overweight are prominent challenges in the treatment of psychosis, which have a direct impact on patients' quality of life. We aim to determine whether there is an association of overweight with cognitive performance and whether there are sex differences in this association. We included 170 individuals with first-episode psychosis (FEP) (mean age 23.08 years, 32.9% females) attending an early intervention service who underwent clinical, biometric, and cognitive assessments by the MATRICS Consensus Cognitive Battery. A set of two-way analyses of covariance (ANCOVAs) were conducted for each cognitive test. Sex, overweight, and their interaction were included as factors. Nearly 34% of the participants were overweight without differences between males and females. The excess of weight did not exert any main effect on cognition; however, overweight females performed significantly worse than non-overweight females in processing speed, verbal learning and memory, reasoning and problem-solving, and global cognitive function, whereas in males, there were no differences. Our findings highlight that sex matters in the study of metabolic and cognitive factors in FEP to develop targeted interventions based on sex perspectives.

Abstract
The gut-brain axis plays a pivotal role in the finely tuned orchestration of food intake, where both homeostatic and hedonic processes collaboratively control our dietary decisions. This interplay involves the transmission of mechanical and chemical signals from the gastrointestinal tract to the appetite centers in the brain, conveying information on meal arrival, quantity, and chemical composition. These signals are processed in the brain eventually leading to the sensation of satiety and the termination of a meal. However, the regulation of food intake and appetite extends beyond the realms of pure physiological need. Hedonic mechanisms, including sensory perception (i.e., through sight, smell, and taste), habitual behaviors, and psychological factors, exert profound influences on food intake. Drawing from studies in animal models and human research, this comprehensive review summarizes the physiological mechanisms that underlie the gut-brain axis and its interplay with the reward network in the regulation of appetite and satiety. The recent advancements in neuroimaging techniques, with a focus on human studies that enable investigation of the neural mechanisms underpinning appetite regulation are discussed. Furthermore, this review explores therapeutic/pharmacological strategies that hold the potential for controlling food intake.

Abstract
The axons containing arginine vasopressin (AVP) from the hypothalamus innervate a variety of structures including the cerebral cortex, thalamus, hippocampus and amygdala. A plethora amount of evidence indicates that activation of the V1a subtype of the vasopressin receptors facilitates anxiety-like and fear responses. As an essential structure involved in fear and anxiety responses, the amygdala, especially the lateral nucleus of amygdala (LA), receives glutamatergic innervations from the auditory cortex and auditory thalamus where high density of V1a receptors have been detected. However, the roles and mechanisms of AVP in these two important areas have not been determined, which prevents the understanding of the mechanisms whereby V1a activation augments anxiety and fear responses. Here, we used coronal brain slices and studied the effects of AVP on neuronal activities of the auditory cortical and thalamic neurons. Our results indicate that activation of V1a receptors excited both auditory cortical and thalamic neurons. In the auditory cortical neurons, AVP increased neuronal excitability by depressing multiple subtypes of inwardly rectifying K+ (Kir) channels including the Kir2 subfamily, the ATP-sensitive K+ channels and the G protein-gated inwardly rectifying K+ (GIRK) channels, whereas activation of V1a receptors excited the auditory thalamic neurons by depressing the Kir2 subfamily of the Kir channels as well as activating the hyperpolarization-activated cyclic nucleotide-gated (HCN) channels and a persistent Na+ channel. Our results may help explain the roles of V1a receptors in facilitating fear and anxiety responses. Categories: Cell Physiology.

Effects of remimazolam tosilate on gastrointestinal hormones and gastrointestinal motility in patients undergoing gastrointestinal endoscopy with sedation: a randomized control trial. Postgrad Med J 2024; 100:635-641.

Abstract
PURPOSE To investigate the impacts of remimazolam tosilate on gastrointestinal hormones and motility in patients undergoing gastrointestinal endoscopy with sedation. METHODS A total of 262 American Society of Anesthesiologists Physical Status I or II patients, aged 18-65 years, scheduled for gastrointestinal endoscopy with sedation, were randomly allocated into two groups (n = 131 each): the remimazolam tosilate group (Group R) and the propofol group (Group P). Patients in Group R received 0.2-0.25 mg/Kg remimazolam tosilate intravenously, while those in Group P received 1.5-2.0 mg/kg propofol intravenously. The gastrointestinal endoscopy was performed when the Modified Observer's Assessment of Alertness/Sedation scores were ≤3. The primary endpoints included the endoscopic intestinal peristalsis rating by the endoscopist; serum motilin and gastrin levels at fasting without gastrointestinal preparation (T0), before gastrointestinal endoscopy (T1), and before leaving the Post Anesthesia Care Unit (T2); and the incidences of abdominal distension during Post Anesthesia Care Unit. RESULTS Compared with Group P, intestinal peristalsis rating was higher in Group R (P < .001); Group R showed increased motilin and gastrin levels at T2 compared with Group P (P < .01). There was a rise in motilin and gastrin levels at T1 and T2 compared with T0 and at T2 compared with T1 in both groups (P < .01). The incidence of abdominal distension was lower in Group R (P < .05). CONCLUSION Compared with propofol used during gastrointestinal endoscopy with sedation, remimazolam tosilate mildly inhibits the serum motilin and gastrin levels, potentially facilitating the recovery of gastrointestinal motility.

Abstract
Alcohol-related harm, a major cause of disease burden globally, affects people along a spectrum of use. When a harmful pattern of drinking is present in the absence of significant behavioral pathology, low-intensity brief interventions that provide information about health consequences of continued use provide large health benefits. At the other end of the spectrum, profound behavioral pathology, including continued use despite knowledge of potentially fatal consequences, warrants a medical diagnosis, and treatment is strongly indicated. Available behavioral and pharmacological treatments are supported by scientific evidence but are vastly underutilized. Discovery of additional medications, with a favorable balance of efficacy versus safety and tolerability can improve clinical uptake of treatment, allow personalized treatment, and improve outcomes. Here, we delineate the clinical conditions when pharmacotherapy should be considered in relation to the main diagnostic systems in use and discuss clinical endpoints that represent meaningful clinical benefits. We then review specific developments in three categories of targets that show promise for expanding the treatment toolkit. GPCRs remain the largest category of successful drug targets across contemporary medicine, and several GPCR targets are currently pursued for alcohol-related indications. Endocrine systems are another established category, and several promising targets have emerged for alcohol indications. Finally, immune modulators have revolutionized treatment of multiple medical conditions, and they may also hold potential to produce benefits in patients with alcohol problems.

Abstract
Cancer cachexia (CC) is a debilitating syndrome that affects 50-80% of cancer patients, varying in incidence by cancer type and significantly diminishing their quality of life. This multifactorial syndrome is characterized by muscle and fat loss, systemic inflammation, and metabolic imbalance. Extracellular vesicles (EVs), including exosomes and microvesicles, play a crucial role in the progression of CC. These vesicles, produced by cancer cells and others within the tumor environment, facilitate intercellular communication by transferring proteins, lipids, and nucleic acids. A comprehensive review of the literature from databases such as PubMed, Scopus, and Web of Science reveals insights into the formation, release, and uptake of EVs in CC, underscoring their potential as diagnostic and prognostic biomarkers. The review also explores therapeutic strategies targeting EVs, which include modifying their release and content, utilizing them for drug delivery, genetically altering their contents, and inhibiting key cachexia pathways. Understanding the role of EVs in CC opens new avenues for diagnostic and therapeutic approaches, potentially mitigating the syndrome's impact on patient survival and quality of life.

Abstract
A systematic search was conducted in Medline Ovid, Embase, Scopus, and Cochrane Central Register of Controlled Trials up until March 2021 following PRISMA guidelines. Studies included evaluated ghrelin, GLP-1, PYY or appetite sensation via visual analogue scales (VASs) before and after Roux-en-Y gastric bypass (RYGB) in adults. A multilevel model with random effects for study and follow-up time points nested in study was fit to the data. The model included kcal consumption as a covariate and time points as moderators. Among the 2559 articles identified, k = 47 were included, among which k = 19 evaluated ghrelin, k = 40 GLP-1, k = 22 PYY, and k = 8 appetite sensation. Our results indicate that fasting ghrelin levels are decreased 2 weeks post-RYGB (p = 0.005) but do not differ from baseline from 6 weeks to 1-year post-RYGB. Postprandial ghrelin and fasting GLP-1 levels were not different from pre-surgical values. Postprandial levels of GLP-1 increased significantly from 1 week (p < 0.001) to 2 years post-RYGB (p < 0.01) compared with pre-RYGB. Fasting PYY increased at 6 months (p = 0.034) and 1 year (p = 0.029) post-surgery; also, postprandial levels increased up to 1 year (p < 0.01). Insufficient data on appetite sensation were available to be meta-analyzed.

Abstract
Cognitive dysfunction, a significant complication of type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM), can potentially manifest even from the early stages of the disease. Despite evidence of global brain atrophy and related cognitive dysfunction in early-stage T2DM patients, specific regions vulnerable to these changes have not yet been identified. The study enrolled patients with T2DM of less than five years' duration and without chronic complications (T2DM group, n=100) and demographically similar healthy controls (control group, n=50). High-resolution T1-weighted magnetic resonance imaging data were subjected to independent component analysis to identify structurally significant components indicative of morphometric networks. Within these networks, the groups' gray matter volumes were compared, and distinctions in memory performance were assessed. In the T2DM group, the relationship between changes in gray matter volume within these networks and declines in memory performance was examined. Among the identified morphometric networks, the T2DM group exhibited reduced gray matter volumes in both the precuneus (Bonferroni-corrected p=0.003) and insular-opercular (Bonferroni-corrected p=0.024) networks relative to the control group. Patients with T2DM demonstrated significantly lower memory performance than the control group (p=0.001). In the T2DM group, reductions in gray matter volume in both the precuneus (r=0.316, p=0.001) and insular-opercular (r=0.199, p=0.047) networks were correlated with diminished memory performance. Our findings indicate that structural alterations in the precuneus and insular-opercular networks, along with memory dysfunction, can manifest within the first 5 years following a diagnosis of T2DM.

Abstract
Further research is required to understand hormonal regulation of food intake during pregnancy and its association with energy intake. The objectives are to (i) compare postprandial responses of plasma glucagon-like peptide-1 (GLP-1) between trimesters, (ii) compare postprandial appetite sensations between trimesters, and (iii) examine trimester-specific associations between GLP-1 levels, appetite sensations, and usual energy intake. At each trimester, participants (n = 26) consumed a standard test meal following a 12 h fast. Plasma GLP-1 levels were measured by enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay method at fasting and at 30, 60, 120, and 180 min postprandial. A visual analogue scale assessing appetite sensations was completed at fasting and at 15, 30, 45, 60, 90, 120, 150, and 180 min postprandial. Mean energy intake was assessed using three web-based 24 h dietary recalls at each trimester. Lower postprandial GLP-1 responses were observed in the 2nd (p = 0.004) and 3rd trimesters (p < 0.001) compared to the 1st trimester. Greater postprandial sensations of desire to eat, hunger, and prospective food consumption were noted in the 3rd trimester compared to the 1st trimester (p < 0.04, for all). Fasting GLP-1 was negatively associated with fasting appetite sensations (except fullness) at the 2nd trimester (p < 0.02, for all). Postprandially, significant associations were observed for incremental areas under the curve from 0 to 30 min between GLP-1 and fullness at the 2nd (p = 0.01) and 3rd trimesters (p = 0.03). No associations between fasting or postprandial GLP-1 and usual energy intake were observed. Overall, GLP-1 and appetite sensation responses significantly differ between trimesters, but few associations were observed between GLP-1, appetite sensations, and usual energy intake.

Abstract
In recent years, although life expectancy has increased significantly, non-communicable diseases (NCDs) continue to pose a significant threat to the health of the global population. Therefore, eating habits have been recognized as key modifiable factors that influence people's health and well-being. For this reason, it is interesting to study dietary patterns, since the human diet is a complex mixture of macronutrients, micronutrients, and bioactive compounds, and can modulate multiple physiological processes, including immune function, the metabolism, and inflammation. To ensure that the data we acquired were current and relevant, we searched primary and secondary sources, including scientific journals, bibliographic indexes, and databases in the last 15 years with the most relevant articles. After this search, we observed that all the recent research on NCDs suggests that diet is a critical factor in shaping an individual's health outcomes. Thus, cardiovascular, metabolic, mental, dental, and visual health depends largely on the intake, habits and patterns, and nutritional behaviors. A diet high in processed and refined foods, added sugars, and saturated fats can increase the risk of developing chronic diseases. On the other hand, a diet rich in whole, nutrient-dense foods, such as vegetables, fruits, nuts, legumes, and a high adherence to Mediterranean diet can improve health's people.

Abstract
Over the past two decades, whole food supplementation strategies have been leveraged to target mental health. In addition, there has been increasing attention on the ability of gut microbes, so called psychobiotics, to positively impact behaviour though the microbiota-gut-brain axis. Fermented foods offer themselves as a combined whole food microbiota modulating intervention. Indeed, they contain potentially beneficial microbes, microbial metabolites and other bioactives, which are being harnessed to target the microbiota-gut-brain axis for positive benefits. This review highlights the diverse nature of fermented foods in terms of the raw materials used and type of fermentation employed, and summarises their potential to shape composition of the gut microbiota, the gut to brain communication pathways including the immune system and, ultimately, modulate the microbiota-gut-brain axis. Throughout, we identify knowledge gaps and challenges faced in designing human studies for investigating the mental health-promoting potential of individual fermented foods or components thereof. Importantly, we also suggest solutions that can advance understanding of the therapeutic merit of fermented foods to modulate the microbiota-gut-brain axis.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Obesity has reached epidemic proportions, with >40% of the US population affected. Although traditionally managed by lifestyle modification, and less frequently by bariatric therapies, there are significant pharmacological advancements. AIMS To conduct a narrative review of the neurohormonal and physiological understanding of weight gain and obesity, and the development, clinical testing, indications, expected clinical outcomes, and associated risks of current FDA-approved and upcoming anti-obesity medications (AOMs). METHODS We conducted a comprehensive review in PubMed for articles on pathophysiology and complications of obesity, including terms 'neurohormonal', 'obesity', 'incretin', and 'weight loss'. Next, we searched for clinical trial data of all FDA-approved AOMs, including both the generic and trade names of orlistat, phentermine/topiramate, bupropion/naltrexone, liraglutide, and semaglutide. Additional searches were conducted for tirzepatide and retatrutide - medications expecting regulatory approval. Searches included combinations of terms related to mechanism of action, indications, side effects, risks, and future directions. RESULTS We reviewed the pathophysiology of obesity, including specific role of incretins and glucagon. Clinical data supporting the use of various FDA-approved medications for weight loss are presented, including placebo-controlled or, when available, head-to-head trials. Beneficial metabolic effects, including impact on liver disease, adverse effects and risks of medications are discussed, including altered gastrointestinal motility and risk for periprocedural aspiration. CONCLUSION AOMs have established efficacy and effectiveness for weight loss even beyond 52 weeks. Further pharmacological options, such as dual and triple incretins, are probable forthcoming additions to clinical practice for combating obesity and its metabolic consequences such as metabolic dysfunction-associated steatotic liver disease.

Abstract
Leptin is an adipocyte-derived hormone that modulates food intake, energy balance, neuroendocrine status, thermogenesis, and cognition. Whereas a high density of leptin receptors has been detected in the basolateral amygdala (BLA) neurons, the physiological functions of leptin in the BLA have not been determined yet. We found that application of leptin excited BLA principal neurons by activation of the long form leptin receptor, LepRb. The LepRb-elicited excitation of BLA neurons was mediated by depression of the G protein-activated inwardly rectifying potassium (GIRK) channels. Janus Kinase 2 (JAK2) and phosphoinositide 3-kinase (PI3K) were required for leptin-induced excitation of BLA neurons and depression of GIRK channels. Microinjection of leptin into the BLA reduced food intake via activation of LepRb, JAK2, and PI3K. Our results may provide a cellular and molecular mechanism to explain the physiological roles of leptin in vivo.

Abstract
CONTEXT Overweight and obesity have become a major health burden with a higher prevalence of obesity in women than in men. Mental stress has been discussed to play a role in this context. OBJECTIVE We investigated endocrine mechanisms underlying eating after acute psychosocial stress and potential sex differences therein. METHODS A total of 32 male and 31 female healthy participants underwent the Trier Social Stress Test before they tasted ice cream in a bogus taste test 15 minutes after stress. We repeatedly assessed the stress hormone cortisol and the satiety hormone cholecystokinin (CCK) in saliva as well as perceived hunger before and up to 1 hour after stress. RESULTS Lower immediate total cortisol stress reactivity predicted higher hunger (Ps ≤ .004), but was not associated with food intake (Ps ≥ .90) or total CCK release (Ps ≥ .84). As compared to men, women ate less after stress (Ps < .001) and had consistently lower levels of hunger (Ps ≤ .024) and cortisol (Ps ≤ .008) as well as a lower immediate total cortisol stress reactivity (Ps = .002). Further, they differed in the kinetics of CCK over the total experimental procedure (Ps ≤ .011), in immediate reaction to stress (Ps ≤ .038), and after eating (Ps ≤ .072), with women's CCK levels continuously decreasing while men's CCK levels were reactive. CONCLUSION We found evidence for lower immediate total cortisol stress reactivity relating to higher perceived hunger, with lower cortisol levels in women. Unlike in men, CCK levels in women were not reactive to acute stress and eating and decreased continuously. Our results may suggest a higher risk for stress-induced eating in women.

Abstract
Changes in eating behaviour including reductions in appetite and food intake, and healthier food cue reactivity, reward, hedonics and potentially also preference, contribute to weight loss and its health benefits after obesity surgery. Functional magnetic resonance imaging (fMRI) has been increasingly used to interrogate the neural correlates of eating behaviour in obesity, including brain reward-cognitive systems, changes after obesity surgery, and links with alterations in the gut-hormone-brain axis. Neural responses to food cues can be measured by changes in blood oxygen level dependent (BOLD) signal in brain regions involved in reward processing, including caudate, putamen, nucleus accumbens, insula, amygdala, orbitofrontal cortex, and top-down inhibitory control, including dorsolateral prefrontal cortex (dlPFC). This systematic review aimed to examine: (i) results of human fMRI studies involving obesity surgery, (ii) important methodological differences in study design across studies, and (iii) correlations and associations of fMRI findings with clinical outcomes, other eating behaviour measures and mechanistic measures. Of 741 articles identified, 23 were eligible for inclusion: 16 (69.6%) longitudinal, two (8.7%) predictive, and five (21.7%) cross-sectional studies. Seventeen studies (77.3%) included patients having Roux-en-Y gastric bypass (RYGB) surgery, six (26.1%) vertical sleeve gastrectomy (VSG), and five (21.7%) laparoscopic adjustable gastric banding (LAGB). The majority of studies (86.0%) were identified as having a very low risk of bias, though only six (27.3%) were controlled interventional studies, with none including randomisation to surgical and control interventions. The remaining studies (14.0%) had a low risk of bias driven by their control groups not having an active treatment. After RYGB surgery, food cue reactivity often decreased or was unchanged in brain reward systems, and there were inconsistent findings as to whether reductions in food cue reactivity was greater for high-energy than low-energy foods. There was minimal evidence from studies of VSG and LAGB surgeries for changes in food cue reactivity in brain reward systems, though effects of VSG surgery on food cue reactivity in the dlPFC were more consistently found. There was consistent evidence for post-operative increases in satiety gut hormones glucagon-like-peptide 1 (GLP-1) and peptide YY (PYY) mediating reduced food cue reactivity after RYGB surgery, including two interventional studies. Methodological heterogeneity across studies, including nutritional state, nature of food cues, post-operative timing, lack of control groups for order effects and weight loss or dietary/psychological advice, and often small sample sizes, limited the conclusions that could be drawn, especially for correlational analyses with clinical outcomes, other eating behaviour measures and potential mediators. This systematic review provides a detailed data resource for those performing or analysing fMRI studies of obesity surgery and makes suggestions to help improve reporting and design of such studies, as well as future directions.

JOURNAL OF ETHNOPHARMACOLOGY 2024; 318:116938. [PMID: 37495029 DOI: 10.1016/j.jep.2023.116938] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 05/14/2023] [Revised: 07/18/2023] [Accepted: 07/19/2023] [Indexed: 07/28/2023]
Abstract
ETHNOPHARMACOLOGICAL RELEVANCE Depression and anorexia often co-occur and share symptoms such as low mood, lack of energy, and weight loss. Xiaoyaosan is a classic formula comprising of a combination of eight herbs, possessing definitive therapeutic effects, minimal side effects, and economical benefits. It has been extensively employed in clinical treatment of ailments and symptoms such as depression, anxiety, and appetite problems. Nonetheless, its exact pharmacological mechanism with necroptosis remains incompletely explicit. AIM OF THE STUDY The aim of this study is to explore the potential mechanisms of anti-depressive and appetite-regulating effects of the active ingredients in Xiaoyaosan, and to investigate whether there is a correlation with necroptosis. MATERIALS AND METHODS The network pharmacology method was conducted to identify active ingredients, which were used to predict the possible targets of Xiaoyaosan and explore the potential targets in treating depression and anorexia by overlapping with differentially expressed genes (DEGs) screened from GEO datasets (GSE125441, GSE198597, and GSE69151). Afterwards, the protein-protein interaction (PPI) network, enrichment analyses, hub gene identification, co-expression study and molecular docking were used to study the potential mechanism of Xiaoyaosan. Then, a mice model of depression was established by chronic unpredictable mild stress (CUMS) and the incidence of necroptosis in the hypothalamus of CUMS mice was investigated, while verifying the key therapeutic target of Xiaoyaosan. RESULTS Through network pharmacology research, it had been discovered that the 145 active ingredients of the 8 herbs in the Xiaoyaosan could regulate 198 disease targets. Through PPI network analysis and functional enrichment analysis, it had been found that the pharmacological mechanism of Xiaoyaosan mainly involved biological processes such as oxidative stress, kinase activity, and DNA metabolism. It is related to various pathways such as cellular senescence, immune inflammation, and the cell cycle, and 9 hub targets had been identified. Further analysis of the 9 hub targets and the key PPI network clusters clarified the key mechanisms by which Xiaoyaosan exerts anti-depressant and appetite regulating effects, possibly related to necroptosis-mediated cellular senescence. Molecular docking of the key indicators of cellular senescence screened by bioinformatics, SIRT1, ABL1, and MYC, revealed that the key component regulating SIRT1 is 2-[3,4-dihydroxyphenyl]-5,7-dihydroxy-6-[3-methylbut-2-enyl]chromone in licorice root, Glabridin in licorice root regulates ABL1, and β-sitosterol found in Chinese angelica, debark peony root, and fresh ginger regulates MYC. Finally, through in vivo experiments, the expression of necroptosis in the hypothalamus of CUMS mice was verified. The regulatory effects of Xiaoyaosan on key substances RIPK1, RIPK3, MLKL, and p-MLKL were determined, while regulating effects on SIRT1, ABL1, and MYC were also observed. CONCLUSION The present study have revealed the common mechanism of Xiaoyaosan in treating depression and anorexia, indicating that the active ingredients of Xiaoyaosan may alleviate the symptoms of depression and anorexia by intervening in the pathways related to necroptosis and cellular senescence. The hub genes and common pathways identified by the study also provide new insights into the therapeutic targets of depression and anorexia, as well as the exploration of pharmacological mechanism of Xiaoyaosan.

Abstract
Food go/no-go training has been traditionally categorized as a type of inhibitory training that decreases the desire for high-calorie food consumption. This training requires participants to either respond or withhold their responses to presented items with go cues or food items with no-go cues, respectively. Recent findings have suggested that this training may devalue food items associated with no-go cues instead of facilitating inhibitory control, leading to reduced food consumption. We thus hypothesized that food go/no-go training would alter the brain response to food items with no-go cues in food evaluation regions. To examine this hypothesis, we conducted a repeated measures functional magnetic resonance imaging using food images in healthy participants, who underwent 3 weeks of food go/no-go training (n = 26) using high- and low-calorie food items paired with no-go cues (no-go food) and go cues (go food), respectively, and control training (n = 24). The food go/no-go training reduced the ratings for the desire to eat no-go foods and increased the ratings for go foods. The reduction in no-go food rating was positively associated with a decrease in daily snack intake. The neural responses in the food evaluation regions increased for go foods. Moreover, the functional connectivity of those regions was altered. The food go/no-go training did not decrease impulsivity traits or increase restrained eating, which are associated with inhibitory control. Overall, food go/no-go training influenced the brain regions associated with food evaluation, thus devaluating no-go foods and reducing the daily snack intake. Accordingly, food go/no-go training could promote healthier food choices.

Neurohormonal response patterns to hunger, satiation, and postprandial fullness in normal weight, anorexia nervosa, and obesity. Neurogastroenterol Motil 2024; 36:e14695. [PMID: 37926943 PMCID: PMC11925049 DOI: 10.1111/nmo.14695] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 06/12/2023] [Revised: 09/18/2023] [Accepted: 10/11/2023] [Indexed: 11/07/2023]
Abstract
BACKGROUND Food intake is regulated by homeostatic and hedonic systems that interact in a complex neuro-hormonal network. Dysregulation in energy intake can lead to obesity (OB) or anorexia nervosa (AN). However, little is known about the neurohormonal response patterns to food intake in normal weight (NW), OB, and AN. MATERIAL & METHODS During an ad libitum nutrient drink (Ensure®) test (NDT), participants underwent three pseudo-continuous arterial spin labeling (pCASL) MRI scans. The first scan was performed before starting the NDT after a > 12 h overnight fast (Hunger), the second after reaching maximal fullness (Satiation), and the third 30-min after satiation (postprandial fullness). We measured blood levels of ghrelin, cholecystokinin (CCK), glucagon-like peptide (GLP-1), and peptide YY (PYY) with every pCASL-MRI scan. Semiquantitative cerebral blood flow (CBF) maps in mL/100 gr brain/min were calculated and normalized (nCBF) with the CBF in the frontoparietal white matter. The hypothalamus (HT), nucleus accumbens [NAc] and dorsal striatum [DS] were selected as regions of interest (ROIs). RESULTS A total of 53 participants, 7 with AN, 17 with NW (body-mass index [BMI] 18.5-24.9 kg/m2 ), and 29 with OB (BMI ≥30 kg/m2 ) completed the study. The NW group had a progressive decrease in all five ROIs during the three stages of food intake (hunger, satiation, and post-prandial fullness). In contrast, participants with OB showed a minimal change from hunger to postprandial fullness in all five ROIs. The AN group had a sustained nCBF in the HT and DS, from hunger to satiation, with a subsequent decrease in nCBF from satiation to postprandial fullness. All three groups had similar hormonal response patterns with a decrease in ghrelin, an increase in GLP-1 and PYY, and no change in CCK. CONCLUSION Conditions of regulated (NW) and dysregulated (OB and AN) energy intake are associated with distinctive neurohormonal activity patterns in response to hunger, satiation, and postprandial fullness.

The energy content of meals with a similar macronutrient distribution may have a greater impact on appetite sensations than food preferences in adolescents with obesity: A secondary analysis. Appetite 2023; 191:107063. [PMID: 37774844 DOI: 10.1016/j.appet.2023.107063] [Citation(s) in RCA: 1] [Impact Index Per Article: 0.5] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 06/29/2023] [Revised: 09/19/2023] [Accepted: 09/26/2023] [Indexed: 10/01/2023]
Abstract
PURPOSE The energy and macronutrient composition of a meal has been shown to influence postprandial appetitive responses, but it is not clear how energy content independent of macronutrient distribution affects postprandial appetite in adolescents with obesity. Extracting data from a primary study testing the effect of energy turnover on appetite, this secondary analysis assessed how fixed meals varying in energy content with similar macronutrient distributions influences postprandial appetite sensations and food reward. METHODS Using a randomised, counterbalanced crossover design, N = 14 adolescents with obesity (Mage = 12.71, SDage = 0.99; 10 female) consumed fixed lunch meals with similar macronutrient content starting at 750 kcal in energy and progressively increasing by 250 kcal on three different test days. Liking and wanting for food images varying in fat and taste were assessed at baseline and immediately after meal consumption. Appetite sensations were assessed in half-hour intervals from baseline to 1-h post-meal. RESULTS The area under the curve for subjective hunger (p < .001, ω = 0.36), desire to eat (p < .001, ω = 0.54), and prospective food consumption (p = .004, ω = 0.32) were significantly lower after consumption of the higher calorie meals relative to the lowest. Explicit wanting for sweet foods increased after intake of the intermediate calorie meal yet decreased after the highest calorie meal (p = .014, ω = 0.09). Conversely, implicit wanting sweet bias increased after consumption of the test meal independent of energy content (p < .001, ω = 0.15). CONCLUSION The consumption of additional calories without a meaningful change in macronutrient distribution may affect appetite sensations more reliably than hedonic responses to energy-dense foods in adolescents with obesity.

Abstract
Several studies demonstrated non-invasive brain stimulation (NIBS) techniques such as transcranial direct current stimulation (tDCS) and transcranial magnetic stimulation (TMS) are safe and simple techniques that can reduce body weight, food cravings, and food consumption in patients with obesity. However, a systematic to evaluate the efficacy of active NIBS versus sham stimulation in reducing body weight and food cravings in patients with obesity is not available. We conducted a systematic review and meta-analysis of randomized controlled trials (RCTs) using PubMed, Embase, MEDLINE, and Cochrane Central Register of Control Trial between January 1990 and February 2022. Mean differences (MDs) for continuous outcome variables with 95% confidence intervals (95% CIs) were used to examine the effects of NIBS on body weight and body mass index (BMI), whereas the hedges's g test was used to measure the effects on food craving. Nineteen RCTs involving 571 participants were included in this study. Active neurostimulation (TMS and tDCS) was significantly more likely than sham stimulation to reduce body weight (TMS: -3.29 kg, 95% CI [-5.32, -1.26]; I2 = 48%; p < .001; tDCS: -0.82 kg, 95% CI [-1.01, -0.62]; I2 = 0.0%; p = .00) and BMI (TMS: -0.74, 95% CI [-1.17, -0.31]; I2 = 0% p = .00; tDCS: MD = -0.55, 95% CI [-2.32, 1.21]; I2 = 0% p = .54) as well as food cravings (TMS: g = -0.91, 95% CI [-1.68, -0.14]; I2 = 88 p = .00; tDCS: g = -0.32, 95% CI [-0.62, -0.02]; p = .04). Compared with sham stimulation, our findings indicate that active NIBS can significantly help to reduce body weight and food cravings. Hence, these novel techniques may be used as primary or adjunct tools in treating patients with obesity.

Abstract
This article reviews the previous studies on the distinction between food cravings and appetite, and how they are regulated by hormones and reflected in brain activity. Based on existing research, food cravings are defined as individual preferences influenced by hormones and psychological factors, which differ from appetite, as they are not necessarily related to hunger or nutritional needs. The article also evaluates the neuroimaging findings about food cravings, and interventions to reduce food cravings, such as mindfulness training, alternative sweeteners, non-invasive brain stimulation techniques, cognitive-behavioral therapy, and imaginal retraining, and points out their advantages, disadvantages, and limitations. Furthermore, the article delves into the potential future directions in the field, emphasizing the need for a neuroendocrine perspective, considerations for associated psychiatric disorders, innovative clinical interventions, and emerging therapeutic frontiers in obesity management. The article outlines the neuro-endocrine basis of food cravings, including ghrelin, leptin, melanocortin, oxytocin, glucagon-like peptide-1, baclofen, and other hormones and their brain regions of action. The article argues that food cravings are an important target for obesity, and more research is needed to explore their complex characteristics and mechanisms, and how to effectively interact with their neuro-endocrine pathways. The article provides a new perspective and approach to the prevention and treatment of obesity.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE This study assessed the associations of binge eating, compensatory behaviors, and dietary restraint with the composition and diversity of the intestinal microbiota among participants with binge-eating disorder or bulimia nervosa. METHODS We analyzed data from 265 participants aged 18 to 45 years with current binge-eating disorder or bulimia nervosa enrolled in the Binge Eating Genetics Initiative study. We evaluated the associations of binge-eating frequency; presence/absence and frequency of vomiting, laxative use, and compulsive exercise; and dietary restraint with abundances of gut microbial genera, species, and diversity (Shannon diversity, Faith phylogenetic diversity, and Peilou's evenness) from 16S rRNA gene sequencing. General linear regression models adjusted for potential confounders, including age and current body mass index, were used to test associations; p values were corrected for the false discovery rate. RESULTS The normalized abundance of four genus- and species-level gut microbes and three diversity indices were lower among Binge Eating Genetics Initiative participants who reported any laxative use compared with those who reported no laxative use. Vomiting frequency was positively associated with the normalized abundance of the genus Escherichia-Shigella , a potential pathobiont, although the association was attenuated to nonsignificance after adjustment for age, body mass index, and binge-eating episodes. CONCLUSIONS Laxative use was highly and uniformly predictive of a reduced gut microbial diversity including potential commensals and pathobionts, and should be assessed and accounted for in all future studies of eating disorders and the gut microbiota. Future studies should collect data on specific medications-particularly laxatives-and dietary intake to obtain unbiased estimates of the effect of eating disorders on the gut microbiota and identify potential downstream clinical implications.Trial Registration:ClinicalTrials.gov identifier: NCT04162574 .

Abstract
Non-alcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD) is a highly prevalent metabolic disease, although prevalence could change according to region, nowadays is considered a public health problem whose real impact on the health system is unknown. NAFLD has a multifactorial and complex pathophysiology, due to this, developing a unique and effective pharmacological treatment has not been successful in reverting or avoiding the progression of this liver disease. Even though NAFLD pathophysiology is known, all actual treatments are focused on modifying or regulating the metabolic pathways, some of which interplay with obesity. It has been known that impairments in hunger and satiety signals are associated with obesity, however, abnormalities in these signals in patients with NAFLD and obesity are not fully elucidated. To describe these mechanisms opens an additional option as a therapeutic target sharing metabolic pathways with NAFLD, therefore, this review aims to describe the hormones and peptides implicated in both hunger-satiety in NAFLD. It has been established that NAFLD pharmacological treatment cannot be focused on a single purpose; hence, identifying interplays that lead to adding or modifying current treatment options could also have an impact on another related outcome such as hunger or satiety signals.

Abstract
This systematic review examined whether neural responses to visual food-cues measured by functional magnetic resonance imaging (fMRI) are influenced by physical activity. Seven databases were searched up to February 2023 for human studies evaluating visual food-cue reactivity using fMRI alongside an assessment of habitual physical activity or structured exercise exposure. Eight studies (1 exercise training, 4 acute crossover, 3 cross-sectional) were included in a qualitative synthesis. Structured acute and chronic exercise appear to lower food-cue reactivity in several brain regions, including the insula, hippocampus, orbitofrontal cortex (OFC), postcentral gyrus and putamen, particularly when viewing high-energy-density food cues. Exercise, at least acutely, may enhance appeal of low-energy-density food-cues. Cross-sectional studies show higher self-reported physical activity is associated with lower reactivity to food-cues particularly of high-energy-density in the insula, OFC, postcentral gyrus and precuneus. This review shows that physical activity may influence brain food-cue reactivity in motivational, emotional, and reward-related processing regions, possibly indicative of a hedonic appetite-suppressing effect. Conclusions should be drawn cautiously given considerable methodological variability exists across limited evidence.

Abstract
BACKGROUND A substantial increase in the prevalence of eating disorders has been noticed over the past decades. Priority in the treatment of eating disorders is justifiably given to psychosocial interventions. However, it is also well known that centrally acting drugs can significantly affect appetite and food consumption. AIM To narratively review the available neurobiological data on the mechanisms of central regulation of eating behavior as a rationale to summarize pharmacological strategies for appetite modulation in eating disorders. METHODS The authors have carried out a narrative review of scientific papers published from January 2013 to March 2023 in the PubMed and Web of Science electronic databases. Studies were considered eligible if they included data on the neurobiological mechanisms of appetite regulation or the results of clinical trials of centrally acting drugs in eating disorders. Relevant studies were included regardless of their design. Descriptive analysis was used to summarize the obtained data. RESULTS The review included 51 studies. The available neurobiological and clinical data allowed us to identify the following pharmacological strategies for appetite modulation in eating disorders: serotonergic, catecholaminergic, amino acidergic and peptidergic. However, implementation of these data into clinical practice difficult due to an insufficient number of good-quality studies, which is particularly relevant for adolescents as there is a research gap in this population. CONCLUSION The progress in neurobiological understanding of the mechanisms of central regulation of appetite opens opportunities for new pharmacotherapeutic approaches aimed at changing the patterns of eating behavior. Obviously, treatment of eating disorders is a much broader problem and cannot be reduced to the correction of eating patterns. Nevertheless, at certain stages of treatment, drug-induced modulation of appetite can play an important role among multi-targeted biological and psychosocial interventions. Translation of neurobiological data into clinical practice requires a large number of clinical studies to confirm the long-term efficacy and safety of pharmacotherapeutic approaches and to develop personalized algorithms for the treatment of various forms of eating disorders in different age groups.

Abstract
Obesity is becoming one of the major global health concerns. This chronic disease affects around 650 million people worldwide and is an underlying cause of a number of significant comorbidities. According to the World Health Organization (WHO) report on obesity from 2022, this disorder became the fourth leading cause of deaths in Europe. Thus, understanding the mechanisms underlying obesity is of essential importance to successfully prevent and treat this disease. The aim of this study was to review the current insights into the potential role of fMRI in discovering the mechanisms underlying obesity on the basis of recent scientific literature published up to December 2022 and searches of the PubMed, Google Scholar and Web of Science databases. The literature assessed indicated that a growing body of evidence suggests that obesity leads to changes in both structure and connectivity within the central nervous system. Emerging data from recent functional magnetic resonance imaging (fMRI) studies prove that obese individuals present an increased motivational drive to eat as well as impaired processing in reward- and control-related brain regions. Apart from this, it is clear that fMRI might be a useful tool in detection of obesity-induced changes within the central nervous system.

Milkshake Acutely Stimulates Dopamine Release in Ventral and Dorsal Striatum in Healthy-Weight Individuals and Patients with Severe Obesity Undergoing Bariatric Surgery: A Pilot Study. Nutrients 2023; 15:2671. [PMID: 37375579 PMCID: PMC10302648 DOI: 10.3390/nu15122671] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 04/27/2023] [Revised: 05/31/2023] [Accepted: 06/06/2023] [Indexed: 06/29/2023] Open
Abstract
The overconsumption of palatable energy-dense foods drives obesity, but few human studies have investigated dopamine (DA) release in response to the consumption of a palatable meal, a putative mediator of excess intake in obesity. We imaged [11C]raclopride in the brain with positron emission tomography (PET) to assess striatal dopamine (DA) receptor binding pre- and post-consumption of a highly palatable milkshake (250 mL, 420 kcal) in 11 females, 6 of whom had severe obesity, and 5 of whom had healthy-weight. Those with severe obesity underwent assessments pre- and 3 months post-vertical sleeve gastrectomy (VSG). Our results demonstrated decreased post- vs. pre-meal DA receptor binding in the ventral striatum (p = 0.032), posterior putamen (p = 0.012), and anterior caudate (p = 0.018), consistent with meal-stimulated DA release. Analysis of each group separately suggested that results in the caudate and putamen were disproportionately driven by meal-associated changes in the healthy-weight group. Baseline (pre-meal) DA receptor binding was lower in severe obesity than in the healthy-weight group. Baseline DA receptor binding and DA release did not change from pre- to post-surgery. The results of this small pilot study suggest that milkshake acutely stimulates DA release in the ventral and dorsal striatum. This phenomenon likely contributes to the overconsumption of highly palatable foods in the modern environment.

Abstract
Neuromedin B (NMB) and gastrin-releasing peptide (GRP) are the two mammalian analogs in the bombesin peptide family that exert a variety of actions including emotional processing, appetitive behaviors, cognition, and tumor growth. The bombesin-like peptides interact with three receptors: the NMB-preferring bombesin 1 (BB1) receptors, the GRP-preferring bombesin 2 (BB2) receptors and the orphan bombesin 3 (BB3) receptors. Whereas, injection of bombesin into the central amygdala reduces satiety and modulates blood pressure, the underlying cellular and molecular mechanisms have not been determined. As administration of bombesin induces the expression of Fos in the lateral nucleus of the central amygdala (CeL) which expresses BB1 receptors, we probed the effects of NMB on CeL neurons using in vitro and in vivo approaches. We showed that activation of the BB1 receptors increased action potential firing frequency recorded from CeL neurons via inhibition of the inwardly rectifying K+ (Kir) channels. Activities of phospholipase Cβ and protein kinase C were required, whereas intracellular Ca2+ release was unnecessary for BB1 receptor-elicited potentiation of neuronal excitability. Application of NMB directly into the CeA reduced blood pressure and heart rate and significantly reduced fear-potentiated startle. We may provide a cellular and molecular mechanism whereby bombesin-like peptides modulate anxiety and fear responses in the amygdala.

Abstract
Pain and obesity, as well as their associated impairments, are major health concerns. Understanding the relationship between the two is the focus of a growing body of research. However, early researches attribute increased mechanical stress from excessive weight as the main factor of obesity-related pain, which not only over-simplify the association, but also fail to explain some controversial outcomes arising from clinical investigations. This review focuses on neuroendocrine and neuroimmune modulators importantly involved in both pain and obesity, analyzing nociceptive and anti-nociceptive mechanisms based on neuroendocrine pathways including galanin, ghrelin, leptin and their interactions with other neuropeptides and hormone systems which have been reported to play roles in pain and obesity. Mechanisms of immune activities and metabolic alterations are also discussed, due to their intense interactions with neuroendocrine system and crucial roles in the development and maintenance of inflammatory and neuropathic pain. These findings have implications for health given rising rates of obesity and pain-related diagnoses, by providing novel weight-control and analgesic therapies targeted on specific pathways.

Abstract
Fetal programming occurs during the gestational age when exposure to environmental stimuli can cause long-term changes in the fetus, predisposing it to develop chronic non-communicable diseases (CNCD) in adulthood. Herein, we summarized the role of low-calorie or high-fat diets during pregnancy as fetal programming agents that induce intrauterine growth restriction (IUGR), amplified de novo lipogenesis, and increased amino acid transport to the placenta, which favor the CNCD onset in the offspring. We also outlined how maternal obesity and gestational diabetes act as fetal programming stimuli by reducing iron absorption and oxygen transport to the fetus, stimulating inflammatory pathways that boost neurological disorders and CNCD in the progeny. Moreover, we reviewed the mechanisms through which fetal hypoxia elevates the offspring's risk of developing hypertension and chronic kidney disease in adult life by unbalancing the renin-angiotensin system and promoting kidney cell apoptosis. Finally, we examined how inadequate vitamin B12 and folic acid consumption during pregnancy programs the fetus to greater adiposity, insulin resistance, and glucose intolerance in adulthood. A better understanding of the fetal programming mechanisms may help us reduce the onset of insulin resistance, glucose intolerance, dyslipidemia, obesity, hypertension, diabetes mellitus, and other CNCD in the offspring during adulthood.

PHYTOMEDICINE : INTERNATIONAL JOURNAL OF PHYTOTHERAPY AND PHYTOPHARMACOLOGY 2023; 113:154735.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Food intake behavior is influenced by both physiological and psychological complex processes, such as appetite, satiety, and hunger. The neuroendocrine regulation of food intake integrates short- and long-term acting signals that modulate the moment of intake and energy storage/expenditure, respectively. These signals are classified as orexigenic, those that activate anabolic pathways and the desire of eating, and anorexigenic, those that activate the catabolic pathways and a sensation of satiety. Appetite control by natural vegetal compounds is an intense area of research and new pharmacological interventions have been emerging based on an understanding of appetite regulation pathways. Several validated psychometric tools are used to assess the efficacy of these plant ingredients. However, these data are not conclusive if they are not complemented with physiological parameters, such as anthropometric evaluations (body weight and composition) and the analysis of hormones related to adipose tissue and appetite in blood. PURPOSE The purpose of this manuscript is the critical analysis of the plant compounds studied to date in the literature with potential for the neuroendocrine regulation of hunger in order to determine if the use of phytochemicals for the treatment of obesity constitutes an effective and/or promising therapeutic tool. METHODS Relevant information on neuroendocrine regulation of hunger and satiety for the treatment of obesity by plant compounds up to 2022 in English and/or Spanish were derived from online databases using the PubMed search engine and Google Scholar with relevant keywords and operators. RESULTS Accordingly, the comparison performed in this review between previous studies showed a high degree of experimental heterogeneity. Among the studies reviewed here, only a few of them establish comprehensively a potential correlation between the effect of the ingredient on hunger or satiety, body changes and a physiological response. CONCLUSIONS More systematic clinical studies are required in future research. The first approach should be to decode the pattern of circulating hormones regulating hunger, satiety, and appetite in overweight/obese subjects. Thereafter, studies should correlate brain connectivity at the level of the hypothalamus, gut and adipose tissue with the hormone patterns modulating appetite and satiety. Extracts whose mode of action have been well characterized and that are safe, can be used clinically to perform a moderate, but continuous, caloric restriction in overweight patients to lose weight excess into a controlled protocol.

The Effects of Exercise on Appetite-Regulating Hormone Concentrations over a 36-h Fast in Healthy Young Adults: A Randomized Crossover Study. Nutrients 2023; 15:nu15081911. [PMID: 37111130 PMCID: PMC10142171 DOI: 10.3390/nu15081911] [Citation(s) in RCA: 8] [Impact Index Per Article: 4.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 03/14/2023] [Revised: 04/06/2023] [Accepted: 04/12/2023] [Indexed: 04/29/2023] Open
Abstract
Hunger and satiety are controlled by several physiological mechanisms, including pancreatic and gastrointestinal hormones. While the influence of exercise and fasting have been described individually, in relation to these hormones, there is a paucity of work showing the effects of the two modalities (fasting and exercise) combined. Twenty healthy adults (11 males, 9 females) completed both conditions of this study, each consisting of a 36-h water-only fast. One of the fasts began with treadmill exercise, and the differences between the conditions on various appetite hormones were measured every 12 h. The difference in the area under the curve between conditions for ghrelin was 211.8 ± 73.1 pg/mL (F = 8.40, p < 0.0105), and, for GLP-1, it was -1867.9 ± 850.4 pg/mL (F = 4.82, p < 0.0422). No significant differences were noted for areas under the curve between conditions for leptin, PP, PYY, insulin, or GIP. Initiating a fast with exercise lowers ghrelin concentrations and elevates GLP-1 concentrations. Given that ghrelin elicits feelings of hunger and GLP-1 signals feelings of satiety, adding exercise to the beginning of a fast may reduce some of the biological drive of hunger, which could make fasting more tolerable, leading to better adherence and more significant health outcomes.
