17
Q

Functions of meals

A
  • Modulate nutrient intake
  • Social interaction
  • Set circadian rhythms
18
Q

Key hypothalamic player in feeding

A

Arcuate nucleus

19
Q

Inhibits feeding via aMSH acting on MC4R –> suppress food intake

A

POMC

20
Q

Common mutation in obesity

A

MC4R

21
Q

Promotes feeding via blocking MC4 receptor, blocking aMSH action

A

AgRP (agouti-related peptide)

22
Q

Release GABA to inhibit POMC neuron activity –> promote appetite

A

NPY

23
Q

Produced in stomach, pancreas, excitatory to NPY

A

Ghrelin

24
Q

Produced by adipose, excitatory to POMC, inhibitory to NPY

A

leptin

25
Q

Produced by duodenum, excitatory to POMC

A

Cholecystokinin

26
Q

Produced by pancreatic beta-cells, excitatory to POMC

A

Insulin

27
Q

Modafinil can treat

A

Narcolepsy, Shift work disorder

28
Q

Lisdexamfetamine can treat

A

Binge eating disorder
