Dietary control and the stomach.

J A Deutsch

    Progress in Neurobiology
    |January 1, 1983

    Summary

    Meal termination signals originate in the stomach, not the mouth or duodenum, in rats. These signals include nutrient amount and gastric distention, with nutrient signals requiring learning for calibration.

    Area of Science:

    • Physiology
    • Neuroscience
    • Gastroenterology

    Background:

    • Meal termination is crucial for energy homeostasis.
    • Understanding satiety signals is key to addressing obesity and eating disorders.

    Purpose of the Study:

    • To identify the origin of meal termination signals in rats.
    • To characterize the types of satiety signals involved in meal termination.
    • To investigate the role of learning and flavor in satiety signaling.

    Main Methods:

    • Rats were fed familiar and novel flavored foods.
    • Gastric and duodenal signals were monitored.
    • Vagal nerve activity was assessed.
    • Cholecystokinin and bombesin levels were measured.

    Main Results:

    • Meal termination signals originate in the stomach for familiar foods.
    • Two distinct signals were identified: nutrient-specific and gastric distention.
    • Gastric distention signals ascend via the vagus nerve.
    • Nutrient signals require learning for calibration.
    • Novel flavors lead to disregard of gastric signals, prioritizing oropharyngeal cues.
    • Evidence suggests cholecystokinin and bombesin are not primary satiety mediators.

    Conclusions:

    • The stomach is the primary source of satiety signals for familiar foods.
    • Satiety involves a combination of nutrient and distention signals, modulated by learning and flavor.
    • Oropharyngeal cues play a significant role when gastric signals are unreliable.
