Document Summary

Kin 404 section 1 regulation of energy intake lecture 2. Assumptions made e. g. other fat stores in liver and muscles. Visceral fat (adipose: energy balance, under thermal neutral conditions. Red is the focus of this course. Schematic diagram showing the major factors determining neural control of appetite and regulation of energy balance. The 2 streams of information are integrated to generate adaptive behavioural (food intake) and autonomic/endocrine responses determining nutrient partitioning, energy expenditure, and overall energy balance. Integration of satiation signals from the gut and adiposity signals from the pancreas and. Adiposity signals long term regulators: from pancreas and adipose tissue, leptin and insulin, the higher the adipose tissue mass, the higher the concentration. Hunger and satiety signals short term regulators: released from the gut in response to a meal, signalling the ?? metabolic s. These signals are integrated and elicit changes in energy intake and expenditure to maintain energy homeostasis.
