The Physiological Regulation of Body Fat Mass

Gastroenterology Clinics of North America, 2023
Disturbances inbody weight and adiposity in both humans and animals are met by compensatory adjustments in energy intake and energy expenditure, suggesting that body weight or fat is regulated. From a clinical viewpoint, this is likely to contribute to the difficulty that many people with obesity have in maintaining weight loss.

A Novel Mechanism of Body Mass Regulation

Journal of Experimental Biology, 2001
ABSTRACT While significant attention has been devoted to the identification of hormonal factors that control body mass, little attention has been paid to the role of mechanical loading on animal mass. Here, we provide evidence that intraperitoneal implantation of metabolically inert mass results in a compensatory reduction in tissue mass.

Regulation of Metabolism and Body Fat Mass by Leptin

Annual Review of Nutrition, 2000
The relative stability of body weight over the long term and under a variety of environmental conditions that alter short-term energy intake and expenditure provides strong evidence for the regulation of body energy content. The lipostatic theory of energy balance regulation proposed 40 years ago that circulating factors, generated in proportion to ...

The regulation of body mass and its relation to the development of obesity

Orvosi Hetilap, 2007
A testtömeg, ezen belül a zsírtömeg regulálása egy visszacsatolásos rendszerben valósul meg, melyben a zsírtömeg nagyságáról adipositasszignálok (leptin, inzulin, amylin), a pillanatnyi tápláltsági állapotról intestinalis peptidhormonok (ghrelin, PYY, PP, GLP-1, OXM, CCK) és a n. vagus informálják a központi idegrendszert mint központi szabályozót.

Regulation of body mass in rats exposed to chronic acceleration

American Journal of Physiology-Legacy Content, 1975
Female rats approximately 6 mo old were chronically centrifuged for up to 30 days at 2.76 G or 3.18 G and sacrificed at intervals for body-composition study. Both fat and the fat-free body mass (FFBM) were reduced during the 1st wk of centrifugation, with the fat showing considerably more variation both within and between groups.

Regulation of body mass and management of childhood overweight

Pediatric Blood & Cancer, 2005
AbstractObesity has become an increasingly important public health problem. Recent evidence suggests that obesity has become a close second to tobacco use as a preventable cause of death in the United States. During the past decade an increase in the prevalence of type 2 diabetes in adolescents has been observed.

Effects of weather on daily body mass regulation in wintering dunlin

Journal of Experimental Biology, 2002
SUMMARYWe investigated the influence of changes in weather associated with winter storms on mass balance, activity and food consumption in captive dunlin (Calidris alpina) held in outdoor aviaries, and compared the aviary results with weather-related body mass differences in free-living dunlin collected at Bolinas Lagoon, California.

Photoperiodic regulation of body mass and fat reserves in the meadow vole

Physiology & Behavior, 1986
Short photoperiods reduce both body mass and food intake of male meadow voles. To help determine whether the primary effect of short day lengths is on regulation of some component of body mass or on the control of food consumption, voles housed in a long photoperiod were provided rations equivalent to those consumed by animals in short day lengths ...

Social stimulation and regulation of body mass in female starlings

Animal Behaviour, 1997
The influence of consexual social stimulation on the regulation of body mass in female European starlings, Sturnus vulgarisduring reproductive development was examined. Twenty-four pairs of birds were housed in three social stimulation treatments: (1) control, where birds were housed in visual isolation from their partner; (2) visual contact, pairs of ...
