Effects of Fasting and Refeeding on Serum Leptin, Adiponectin and Free Fatty Acid Concentrations in Young and Old Male Rats

Abstract: Background: Regulatory mechanisms of metabolic homeostasis undergo important alterations during ageing. The age-related changes become often evident only during stimulation of basic functions that occurs, e.g. during fasting and refeeding which represent natural challenge to energy metabolism. Objective: To determine the effect of short-term fasting and subsequent refeeding on serum levels of key hormones and metabolites in young adult 5- and 24-month-old male Wistar rats. Methods: Control rats were fed ad lib… Show more

“…The unchanged plasma adiponectin in R cows compared with the C cows indicates that its circulating concentration is not affected by energy balance. The finding of unchanged adiponectin concentrations during feed restriction agrees with results of energy restriction (4 d) study in humans (Imbeault et al, 2004) and total feed deprivation studies in rodents (48 h of fasting; Combs et al, 2003;Kmiec et al, 2005) and humans (48 to 72 h of fasting; Gavrila et al, 2003;Merl et al, 2005). However, another report suggests that adiponectin concentration is decreased in mice after 8 h of fasting (Gui et al, 2003).…”

“…Microinjection of NPY or the NPY Y-1 receptor agonist BIBO 3304 increases foraging/food hoarding similarly to food deprivation in ad libitum-fed Siberian hamsters (Daily ME and Bartness TJ, unpublished observation). With refeeding, however, the physiological milieu is reversed, such that sympathetic drive to white adipose tissue is decreased, and, consequently, leptin secretion is increased [e.g., (39)]. Foraging and hoarding increase, and concomitant with these initial large increases in these appetitive ingestive behaviors comes smaller increases in food intake [e.g., (21); and present study].…”

“…There was no difference in plasma leptin concentrations between lactating and non-lactating rats at the same time point. Short-term fasting decreases circulating levels of leptin in rats (Kmiec et al 2005, Palou et al 2009). Therefore, fasting just before blood sampling may lead to the low leptin levels in non-lactation.…”
