The role of norepinephrine in feeding behavior

Neuroscience & Biobehavioral Reviews, 1982
When dopamine-beta-hydroxylase is inhibited with FLA-63 (10 mg/kg) free feeding behavior is disrupted in satiated rats. While the average number of meals taken was not different from vehicle injected controls, meal size was decreased 58% in the first 9 hr after treatment with FLA-63.

The role of galanin in feeding behavior [PDF]

open access: possibleNeuropeptides, 1999
Galanin inhibits food consumption in satiated rats. Discovered relatively recently, galanin is a 29-amino-acid neuropeptide, not homologous with any other known peptide. Three G-protein-linked galanin receptor subtypes have been cloned. This review summarizes the mechanisms by which exogenously administered galanin may stimulate ingestion, discusses ...

Feeding Behavior

2009
Publisher Summary This chapter provides an overview of insects feeding behavior and its regulations. The most extensive studies of insect feeding behavior and its regulation have focused on two insects with completely different feeding habits: the adult black blow fly (Phormia regina), which is a fluid feeder; and the final nymphal stage of the ...

Chemical control of feeding behavior

Comparative Biochemistry and Physiology Part A: Physiology, 1971
Abstract 1. 1. Chemical control of some aspects of feeding behavior is of widespread occurrence. 2. 2. A new classification of chemical effectors of feeding behavior is proposed. 3. 3. Specific chemical effectors of feeding behavior in many species are discussed. 4. 4.

Hormonal rhythm and feeding behavior

Journal of the Autonomic Nervous System, 1984
In this review, attempts were made to clarify the role of feeding behavior in modifying the basal 24-h pattern of plasma corticosterone in freely moving rats. An ethosecretogram, consisting of locomotor activity and plasma corticosterone levels in conscious rats over a period of several hours, was constructed.

The temporal structure of feeding behavior

American Journal of Physiology-Regulatory, Integrative and Comparative Physiology, 2011
Meals have long been considered relevant units of feeding behavior. Large data sets of feeding behavior of cattle, pigs, chickens, ducks, turkeys, dolphins, and rats were analyzed with the aims of 1) describing the temporal structure of feeding behavior and 2) developing appropriate methods for estimating meal criteria.

Feeding Behavior of the Blowfly

1969
Publisher Summary Feeding supplies are essential raw materials for the combined processes of maintenance, growth, and reproduction, in the majority of animals. On either side of this norm, however, are two extremes that represent adaptations to special conditions.

Feeding Behavior of the Pigeon

1976
Publisher Summary The class Aves exhibits an enormous variety of morphological and behavioral specializations for feeding, which are reflected most strikingly in the relation between bill structure and food source. This chapter discusses on the control of food and water intake and the regulation of body weight, hunger in the pigeon: behavioral ...

Feeding behavior

2018
Insects need to ingest nutrients at appropriate levels to attain a balanced diet and maximize fitness. They do so by integrated responses that involve physiological mechanisms for sensing current nutritional needs, releasing systemic signals, and producing specific appetites for key required nutrients. Historically, the study of insect feeding behavior

Brain Estrogens and Feeding Behavior

2017
Estrogens play essential roles in suppressing food intake and preventing body weight gain. Tremendous research efforts have been focused on estrogen physiology in the context of feeding control. Estrogen receptors and the related signals have been attractive targets for development of new obesity therapies.
