Synopsis of recent research by authors named "Kellie M Hyde"
- Kellie M Hyde's research primarily investigates the effects of Roux-en-Y gastric bypass (RYGB) and dietary factors on taste perception and food intake behavior in rodent models, revealing significant alterations in sugar and salt taste detection thresholds as a result of surgical and dietary interventions.
- Her studies demonstrate that RYGB not only reduces the intake and preference for sugary solutions but also affects the motivational aspects of food intake, showing that prolonged exposure to these stimuli can modulate response patterns in brief-access tests.
- Additionally, Hyde's work explores mechanisms underlying taste aversion and palatable food intake, highlighting the roles of neurochemical pathways such as GLP-1 receptor activation and orexin signaling in modulating feeding behavior and preferences in response to different dietary conditions.
