Resumen
La replicación de los estudios sobre la hormona intestinal PYY3-36, una posible terapia para la obesidad, falló. Estos hallazgos ponen en duda la viabilidad de PYY3-36 para tratamientos contra la obesidad.
Área de la Ciencia:
- Endocrinología Endocrinología.
- Investigación de la obesidad.
- Las hormonas gastrointestinales
Sus antecedentes:
- Se informó que la hormona péptida intestinal PYY3-36 reduce la ingesta de alimentos y el peso corporal en roedores.
- Este descubrimiento sugirió PYY3-36 como una nueva terapia potencial para la obesidad.

Hormonal Regulation
Hormones regulate a significant portion of digestion through activation of the neuroendocrine system. The neuroendocrine system of digestion contains many different hormones all with multiple functions that are both, directly and indirectly, involved in digestion.
Regulation of Food Intake
Short-term regulation of food intake primarily involves neural signals from the gastrointestinal (GI) tract, blood nutrient levels, and GI tract hormones. Communication between the gut and brain via vagal nerve fibers plays a significant role in evaluating the contents of the gut. Clinical studies have shown that protein ingestion produces a more prolonged response in these nerve fibers compared to an equivalent amount of glucose. Additionally, the activation of stretch receptors caused by GI...
