The neuroregulation of food intake: The effect of sex on meal selection patterns and the influence of diet on central H1 receptor binding in female SD rats
Abstract:Obesity is a growing health problem because it is associated with many diseases, such as cancer, heart disease and diabetes. There is increasing evidence that obesity is under control of several factors in the brain, including orexigenic and anorexigenic neuropeptides and neurotransmitters. Histamine-containing neurons and their receptors, closely involved in regulation of food intake, are distributed throughout the brain. In the reported experiments, dietary influence on H1-receptor binding was examined using… Show more
