This cutting-edge, interdisciplinary volume describes established
and state of the art approaches for exploring the pathways that
influence and control appetite, including: behavioural,
electrophysiological, neuroanatomical, gene knockout and
pharmacological techniques. The book presents key peptide and
neurotransmitter systems, together with newly emerging concepts of
metabolic signalling and hypothalamic inflammation. The impact of
early life experience on neuroendocrine appetite circuits is also
looked at, including early programming of these circuits by
circulating hormones. Finally, new emerging therapeutic approaches
to appetite suppression are discussed, including those linked to
bariatric (weight loss) surgery. Neuroendocrinology of Appetite is
especially focused on established and emerging technologies and
approaches for investigating appetite control. It is written so as
to provide an overview of sufficient depth for an undergraduate or
new scientist in the field to come up to speed in the complementary
approaches used by researchers in this field. Taking an
interdisciplinary approach, the book aims to appeal to all those
with a basic, clinical or therapeutic interest in research into
obesity and eating disorders.
