HYPOTHALAMUS: ARCUATE NUCLEUS

• ANTERIOR PITUITARY RELEASING HORMONES

• ENERGY RESERVES AND METABOLISM– OREXIGENIC/ANOREXIGENIC NEURONS– INCREASE/DECREASE METABOLISM– RECEPTORS FOR PERIPHERAL SIGNALS

ARCUATE NUCLEUS

• TWO TYPES OF NEURONS• MELANOCORTIN

– POMC– αMSH– INHIBITS FEEDING BEHAVIOR– INCREASES METABOLISM

• NEUROPEPTIDE-Y (NPY)– NPY– AGOUTI-RELATED PEPTIDE (AgRP)

• COMPETITIVE INHIBITOR OF MELANOCORTIN RECEPTORS

– STIMULATES FEEDING BEHAVIOR– DECREASES METABOLISM– INHIBITS MELANOCORTIN NEURONS

ENERGY BALANCE INDICATORS

• LONG-TERM ENERGY STORES (ADIPOSE)– LEPTIN– INSULIN

• SHORT-TERM ENERGY STORES (SATIETY)– GHRELIN– PEPTIDE YY– CHOLECYSTOKININ (CCK)– GLP-1

Leptin

• Produced by fat cells– Level of leptin produced is directly

related to how much fat is in the fat cell.

• Peptide

• Anorexogenic

• Increases metabolism
