The regulation of food intake is a complex mechanism, and the hypothalamus is the main
central structure implicated. In particular, the arcuate nucleus appears to be the most critical …

Some adipokines known to regulate food intake at a central level can also affect
gastrointestinal motor responses. These are recognized to be peripheral signals able to …

Food intake is regulated by vagal afferent signals from the stomach. Adiponectin, secreted
primarily from adipocytes, also has a role in regulating food intake. However, the …

Purpose To elucidate the possible role of adiponectin, an adipokine secreted by white
adipose tissue that plays an important role in the neuromodulation of food intake, in the …

Adiponectin has been shown to stimulate fatty acid oxidation and enhance insulin sensitivity
through the activation of AMP-activated protein kinase (AMPK) in the peripheral tissues. The …

Some adipokines, such as adiponectin (ADPN), other than being implicated in the central
regulation of feeding behavior, may influence gastric motor responses, which are a source of …

Adiponectin was discovered in 1995 by Phillip Scherer's research group and described as a
novel serum protein similar to C1q, being produced exclusively in adipocytes. 1 Adiponectin …

Adiponectin (ADPN), a hormone produced by adipose tissue, facilitates gastric relaxation
and can be a satiety signal in the network connecting peripheral organs and the central …

Adiponectin is a protein secreted exclusively by white adipose tissues and is abundantly
present in human plasma. Adiponectin was found decreased in obese and diabetes mellitus …

Adiponectin (ADPN) has been reported to induce inhibitory effects on gastric motor activity,
which, being a source of peripheral satiety signals, would contribute to the central …
