In cell line and animal models, sweet and bitter tastants induce secretion of signaling
peptides (eg, glucagon-like peptide-1 and cholecystokinin) and slow gastric emptying (GE) …

The differential effects of fructose and glucose on food intake were studied by giving two
concentrations (1 and 10%) of glucose and fructose solutions (500 ml) to one group of …

It is widely accepted that gastric parameters such as gastric distention provide a direct
negative feedback signal to inhibit eating; moreover, gastric and intestinal signals have …

The rate of gastric emptying and the release of gastrointestinal (GI) hormones are major
determinants of postprandial blood-glucose concentrations and energy intake. Preclinical …

To test the hypothesis that postprandial rises of plasma glucose attenuate the motivation
derived from positive tastes, we analyzed the effects of intraperitoneal (ip) injections of …

This short review summarizes the effects of low calorie sweeteners (fructose, non-nutritive
low calorie sweeteners) on gut functions focusing on the gut sweet taste receptor system …

Background Activation of gastrointestinal (GI) sweet taste receptors by caloric sweeteners
triggers secretion of anorexigenic and inhibition of orexigenic GI hormones to regulate food …

DESIGN: In an initial study, gastric emptying rate and appetite were measured following
ingestion of lemon flavoured solutions of sucrose, maltose (2160 kJ, 575 ml) and water …

Direct infusion of specific nutrients or foods into different areas of the gastrointestinal tract,
and techniques to distend the stomach, are useful tools enabling eating behaviour to be …

Objective The gastrointestinal tract plays a key role in feelings of satiation. It is known that
there is a reciprocal interaction between the stomach and intestine, but it is not known which …
