Nutritional Sensing And Its Utility In Treating Obesity
EXPERT REVIEW OF ENDOCRINOLOGY & METABOLISM(2012)
摘要
Obesity remains a major worldwide health problem, with current medical treatments being poorly effective. Nutrient sensing allows organs such as the GI tract and the brain to recognize and respond to fuel substrates such as carbohydrates, protein and fats. Specialized neural and hormonal pathways exist to facilitate and regulate these chemosensory mechanisms. Manipulation of factors involved in either central or peripheral chemosensory pathways may provide possible targets for the manipulation of appetite. However, further research is required to assess the utility of this approach to developing novel anti-obesity agents.
