Mechanisms of Appetite Regulation
Original language description
Appetite regulation and adequate eating behavior are crucial for survival. To begin and to stop eating is a complex process. Appetite regulation, perception of hunger and satiety, eating behavior, and food preferences are in great part determined by genetic factors. Therefore, if tasty and energy-rich food is freely available in potentially unlimited quantities, overeating may occur due to insufficient defense mechanisms. Pleasure-seeking and edonic responses to food intake are mediated by humoral substances, for example, endorphins, dopamine, and endocannabinoids. In conclusion, a number of signals contribute to the central regulation of appetite and satiety by acting directly on the hypothalamic arcuate nucleus. Mutations of genes involved in energybalance regulation as the leptin-melanocortin pathway lead to a loss of control over appetite and early-onset severe obesity. Probably more factors that play a role in energy intake regulation exist and so far have not been identified.
