The magnitude of preabsorptive insulin release varies as a function of palatability. This
suggests that the palatability-dependent rise in plasma insulin could accentuate the …

The purpose of these experiments was to determine whether the level of orally-triggered and
vagally-mediated preabsorptive insulin release was related to the degree of food palatability …

The effects of bilateral subdiaphragmatic vagotomy and of lateral hypothalamic lesions on
the acute plasma glucose and insulin responses to liquid and solid meals were studied in …

Previous work has established that the increased food intake of rats in response to insulin-
induced hypoglycemia can be inhibited by the intravenous infusion of fructose, a sugar that …

Physiological factors that affect food intake have been shown to influence taste-evoked
activity in the rat's central nervous system. Insulin appears to have a bimodal effect on …

Two experiments were performed to investigate whether insulin-induced hyperphagia (IIH)
serves an adaptive function in counteracting hypoglycemia in hamsters. In Experiment 1 …

Most of the methods used to evaluate the role of taste factors on food intake are confounded
by the postingestional consequences of the ingested diet which interfere with measurements …

Normal rats and rats with bilateral subdiaphragmatic vagotomy, each equipped with a
pyloric noose, ate liquid food after 3-hr food deprivation. When the noose was open …

In separate, parallel experiments, rats were allowed to sham or real feed a flavored
sweetened condensed-milk solution after a 17.5-h fast. Coinciding with administration of the …

Some years ago, we reported that the increased food intake of hypoglycemic rats was
inhibited by the intravenous infusion of fructose, a sugar that cannot cross the blood-brain …
