Possible cholinergic control on the release of PYY from intestine into the lumen or blood vessel was studied by radioimmunoassay in the isolated perfused rat ileum. The basal release of PYY into the lumen was 43.1 +/- 8.9 pg/min, which was comparable with that into the vasculature (35.2 +/- 2.6 pg/min). The administration of 1 microM carbachol into the vascular perfusate resulted in a more than 40-fold increase of the luminal release but only a twofold increase of the vascular release. Carbachol-induced release of PYY into both lumen and vasculature was completely blocked by atropine, but not by hexamethonium. Tetrodotoxin abolished carbachol-induced release of PYY into lumen and vasculature. These data suggest that the ileal PYY release, into either lumen or vasculature, is under the control of postganglionic cholinergic neurons via muscarinic receptors.

Appetite-related Gut Hormone Responses to Feeding Across the Life Course.

J Endocr Soc

Appetite-related hormones are secreted from the gut, signaling the presence of nutrients. Such signaling allows for cross-talk between the gut and the appetite-control regions of the brain, influencing appetite and food intake. As nutritional requirements change throughout the life course, it is perhaps unsurprising that appetite and eating behavior are not constant.

Background: Bariatric surgery is very effective in long-term weight management. The present study was undertaken to investigate the short-term effects of sleeve gastrectomy (SG) and of Roux-en-Y gastric bypass (RYGB) on (a) gastrointestinal (GI) motility, that is gastric emptying and oro-cecal transit time and (b) secretion of regulatory gut peptides and (c) their interrelationship.

Methods: Prospective single-centre study in which we assessed gastric emptying, oro-cecal transit time and gut peptide release in 28 severely obese individuals before and 2, respectively, 12 months after bariatric surgery (either SG or RYGB).

Smart control lipid-based nanocarriers for fine-tuning gut hormone secretion.

Modulating the endogenous stores of gastrointestinal hormones is considered a promising strategy to mimic gut endocrine function, improving metabolic dysfunction. Here, we exploit mouse and human knock-in and knockout intestinal organoids and show that agents used as commercial lipid excipients can activate nutrient-sensitive receptors on enteroendocrine cells (EECs) and, when formulated as lipid nanocarriers, can bestow biological effects through the release of GLP-1, GIP, and PYY from K and L cells. Studies in wild-type, dysglycemic, and gut knockout mice demonstrated that the effect exerted by lipid nanocarriers could be modulated by varying the excipients (e.

Proteins and Peptides from Food Sources with Effect on Satiety and Their Role as Anti-Obesity Agents: A Narrative Review.

Background/objective: Obesity, clinically defined as a body mass index (BMI) of 30 kg/m or higher, is a medical condition characterized by the excessive accumulation of body fat, which can lead to adverse health consequences. As a global public health issue with an escalating prevalence, controlling appetite and satiety is essential for regulating energy balance and managing body weight. Dietary proteins and peptides have gained interest in their potential to prevent and treat obesity by modulating satiety signals.

Background: Gut L-type enteroendocrine cells (EECs) are intestinal chemosensory cells that secrete satiety hormones GLP-1 and PYY in response to activation of G-protein coupled receptors (GPCRs) by luminal components of nutrient digestion and microbial fermentation. Regulator of G-protein Signaling (RGS) proteins are negative regulators of GPCR signaling. The expression profile of RGS in EECs, and their potential role in satiety hormone secretion and obesity is unknown.
