the GHS-R1a.35 The physiologic significance of these actions is contentious, as reviewed elsewhere.33,36 However,
experiments in GHS-R1a knockout mice have definitively
established that this receptor is required for the orexigenic
and GH stimulating effects of acylated ghrelin.32,37
When administered into the CNS, ghrelin stimulates
food intake as potently as NPY, previously the most
powerful known orexigen, and more powerfully than any
other substance examined.19 21 Ghrelin also stimulates
appetite and food intake when administered systemically
in rodents19,22 and humans.38 This property is unique to
ghrelin and not shared by any known neuropeptide or
circulating hormone. The duration of feeding stimulation in response to central or peripheral ghrelin administration is short, similar to that observed for central
NPY. Indeed, several lines of evidence suggest that ghrelin acts via arcuate NPY/AgRP neurons, almost all of
which express the GHS-R1a.39 Ghrelin stimulates feeding
most potently when injected directly into the arcuate
nucleus and also stimulates release of NPY from hypothalamic explants in vitro.22,30 Arcuate NPY/AgRP neurons are activated by ghrelin, as demonstrated by enhanced c-fos, NPY, and AgRP expression following
ghrelin administration and by electrophysiologic studies.21,40 43 Further, the orexigenic actions of ghrelin are
abolished in NPY/AgRP dual knockout mice and in mice
with postembryonic ablation of NPY/AgRP neurons.37,44
Although this neuronal population is the most wellcharacterized ghrelin target, there is also evidence for an
indirect action on these neurons via the vagus nerve.
Vagotomy abolishes the feeding and arcuate c-fos response to peripheral, but not central ghrelin administration.41,45 Other ghrelin targets include several other hypothalamic nuclei, the dorsal vagal complex of the
brainstem and components of the mesolimbic dopaminergic system. The GHS-R1a is also expressed in these
locations and microinjection of ghrelin directly into
these areas stimulates food intake.22,2527,46,47

ment required for binding to and activation of the GHSR1a.48,49 These residues are highly conserved, suggesting
an important biologic role. Infusion of antighrelin antibodies into the rat brain inhibits fasting-induced feeding,
further supporting ghrelins role as an endogenous regulator of food intake.21
Plasma ghrelin levels were first noted to increase on
fasting and fall on refeeding in rodents, as would befit a
hunger signal.19,22 Subsequently, more detailed studies
have demonstrated preprandial plasma ghrelin elevation
in humans and animals fed at scheduled times.50 54 More
importantly, plasma ghrelin also peaks preprandially in
human subjects, who have been deprived of time cues,
initiating meals voluntarily.55 These plasma ghrelin
peaks correlated well with hunger scores. Postprandially,
plasma ghrelin is suppressed in proportion to calories
ingested, when macronutrient content and volume are
kept constant.56 Interestingly, fat appears to suppress
ghrelin less potently per calorie than carbohydrate or
protein.57,58 This may, in part, explain the reduced satiety
and enhanced weight gain associated with high-fat diets.
Taken together, these data strongly suggest a role for
ghrelin as a meal initiator. Whether ghrelin is the only, or
even a physiologically vital, hunger signal is as yet undetermined. This would require demonstration that interruption of ghrelin signaling, for example using antagonists or inducible knockouts, abolishes normal meal
initiation.

Satiety Signals
After a meal, nutrients pass into the stomach and
intestine, and a number of gastrointestinal signals are
released. These peptides and other signals act to optimize
the digestive process, and some also function as shortterm satiety signals and possibly long-term regulators of
body weight.
CCK
CCK is the prototypical satiety hormone. It is now
over 30 years since CCK was first shown to inhibit food
intake, and it remains 1 of the most intensively studied of
the gut hormones.96 99 CCK is widely distributed within
the gastrointestinal tract, but the majority is synthesized
in the duodenum and jejunum. It is rapidly released into
the surrounding tissues and circulation in response to
nutrients in the gut, in particular, fat and protein-rich
meals, with levels rising approximately 5-fold postprandially. In addition to inhibiting food intake, its main
actions include delaying gastric emptying, stimulating
pancreatic enzyme secretion, and stimulating gall bladder
contraction. Together these actions promote the effective
digestion of fat and protein in the small intestine by
matching the delivery of nutrient with the capacity to
digest it.97,98
There are 2 distinct G protein-coupled CCK receptor
subtypes. In the rat, CCK-A (also called CCK-1) receptors
are found in the pancreas, on vagal afferent and enteric
neurons. CCK-A receptors are also found throughout the
brain, including the nucleus of the solitary tract, area
postrema, and dorsomedial hypothalamus. CCKB receptors are distributed throughout the brain, are present in
the afferent vagus nerve, and are found within the stomach.97,98
Administration of CCK, to humans and animals, inhibits food intake by reducing meal size and duration.96
Although at high dose nausea and taste aversion have
been detected, at low dose, feeding is inhibited without
these effects.100 The main receptor at which CCK exerts
these effects is the CCK-A receptor.101 Only the sulphated form of CCK binds with high affinity to the
CCK-A receptor, and it is only this form that inhibits
food intake.96 Recent work suggests that CCK-A receptors expressed by vagal afferent neurons are a particularly
important target for CCK in producing sensations of
satiety, as well as inhibiting gastric emptying and stimu-
2121
PYY and PP
PYY, PP, and NPY are members of the PP-fold
peptide family and are both putative circulating satiety
factors. In addition to a shared tertiary structure, the
PP-fold structural motif, there is significant homology
between peptide sequences within the family. They all
have 36 amino acids, contain several tyrosine residues,
and require C-terminal amidation for biologic activity.
The PP-fold family exert their effects via the Y family of
G protein-coupled receptors. Four receptor subtypes have
been identifiedY1, Y2, Y4, and Y5all of which are
expressed in the hypothalamus.110 Y1 and Y5 have both
been put forward as the putative receptors via which NPY
exerts its orexigenic action. The Y2 receptor is thought to
function as an autoinhibitory presynaptic receptor, expressed on NPY neurons, and to mediate the anorectic
actions of PYY, while the Y4 receptor appears to mediate
the anorectic actions of PP.
2122
PYY
PYY occurs in 2 forms: PYY136 and PYY336. PYY336,
the major circulating form (11), is a truncated 34-amino
acid form created by cleavage of the N-terminal Tyr-Pro
residues by dipeptidyl peptidase IV (DPPIV).111 Although
full-length PYY binds with similar affinity to all Y receptors,
PYY336 shows selectivity for the Y2 receptor, for which it has
high affinity, and some affinity for Y1 and Y5 receptors.110
PYY is secreted from entero-endocrine L-cells These
PYY immunoreactive cells are found throughout the entire gastrointestinal tract, but particularly in the distal
portion. PYY immunoreactivity is almost absent in the
stomach, sparse in the duodenum and jejunum, common
in the ileum and colon, and at very high levels in the
rectum (the converse pattern of that for ghrelin). The
pattern of secretion is also a mirror image of that found
for ghrelin; that is, PYY is released into the circulation
following meals and suppressed by fasting.112
PYY has long been known to exert numerous effects on
the gastrointestinal tract. Administration of PYY increases the absorption of fluids and electrolytes from the
ileum after a meal and inhibits pancreatic and gastric
secretions, gallbladder contraction, and gastric emptying.113 Peripheral administration of PYY, like ghrelin,
also exerts effects on numerous other body systems. For
example, it reduces cardiac output, causes vasoconstriction, and reduction in glomerular filtration rate, plasma
renin, and aldosterone activity. The physiologic significance of these numerous actions has not been established.

PP
PP is produced largely in the endocrine pancreas,
but also in the exocrine pancreas, colon, and rectum. Like
PYY, PP is released in response to a meal, in proportion to
the caloric load, and inhibits appetite.134 Pancreatic and
gastrointestinal hormones can also regulate circulating
PP levels. Ghrelin, motilin, and secretin rapidly stimulate
PP release, whereas somatostatin and its analogs significantly reduce plasma PP concentrations. PP binds with
greatest affinity to Y4 receptors (with greater affinity than
PYY) and Y5 receptors.110
2123
The role of PP in appetite regulation has been investigated for over 30 years. It was initially noted that ob/ob
mice lacked pancreatic PP cells, and peripheral administration of PP could reduce their food intake and body
weight.135 Peripheral administration of PP resulting in
physiologic plasma levels has been shown to reduce food
intake in normal mice, with associated reduction in gastric emptying, and gastric expression of ghrelin, and
increased vagal tone.136 PP also increased oxygen consumption and stimulated sympathetic activity, leading to
the suggestion that PP may also increase energy expenditure. In normal-weight human volunteers infusion of
PP reduces food intake without altering gastric emptying.137 Subjects with PWS are reported to have suppressed basal and postprandial PP levels, while PP administration to PWS subjects reduced food intake.138,139 It is,
therefore, possible that PP deficiency contributes to the
hyperphagia in this obesity syndrome.
Apart from its acute effects on appetite and food
intake, PP may also modulate long-term energy balance.
Transgenic mice that overexpress PP have a lean phenotype with reduced food intake.140 Repeated administration of PP to ob/ob mice decreases body weight gain and
ameliorates insulin resistance and dyslipidemia.136 However, rodents with diet-induced obesity are less sensitive
to the anorectic actions of PP. Long-term energy stores
may influence the circulating PP levels as well as shortterm food intake. Plasma PP is increased in individuals
with anorexia nervosa, and there have been reports of
suppressed plasma PP in obese subjects. However, the
effects of obesity on circulating concentrations of PP are
conflicting; others have found no difference between lean
and obese subjects or between obese subjects before and
after weight loss. The effects of PP on appetite and body
weight in obese humans are unknown. Further investigation in obese subjects may indicate whether PP has the
potential to be a novel treatment for obesity.
PP, like PYY, has opposing effects on appetite, depending on the route of administration. Injection of PP into
the third ventricle stimulates daytime food intake in
satiated rats.141 Similarly, central injection of PP has the
opposite effect to peripheral administration on gastric
motility, stimulating rather than inhibiting gastric emptying. These contrasting effects of central and peripheral
administration of PP probably reflect differing sites of
receptor activation. PP is unable to cross the blood brain
barrier. Circulating PP therefore acts on the CNS via
areas that have a deficient blood brain barrier, such as
the area postrema. The passage of PP into the area postrema has been demonstrated by autoradiographic studies and neuronal activation by expression of the immediate early gene, c-fos, in the area postrema.142 The
anorectic effect seen after peripheral administration of
PP probably occurs via the Y4, which is highly expressed
in this region. The receptor mediating the orexigenic
effect of PP after central injection is unclear. The stimu-

Oxyntomodulin
Oxyntomodulin inhibits calorie intake in rodents
when given either centrally or peripherally, and results in
decreased weight gain when administered peripherally.149 151 Oxyntomodulin is also an effective anorectic
peptide in human subjects. An infusion of oxyntomodulin to normal-weight human subjects reduced immediate
calorie intake by 19.3% and was effective at reducing food
intake up to 12 hours postinfusion.152 Part of its anorectic effect may be via suppression of plasma ghrelin levels.
Peripheral administration of oxyntomodulin, at postprandial concentrations, reduces circulating ghrelin by
around 15%20% in rodents and 44% in human subjects.151,152 It is possible that postprandial oxyntomodulin release may contribute to the normal physiologic
inhibition of plasma ghrelin after meals.
In contrast to GLP-1, oxyntomodulin is a much less
potent incretin but may have more potent effects on
weight loss. Although acute oxyntomodulin infusion in
humans reduces food intake, it only causes a small increase in plasma insulin without affecting plasma glucose.152 When administered 3 times daily in overweight
volunteers for 4 weeks, subcutaneous oxyntomodulin
resulted in 2.3 kg weight loss compared with 0.5 kg in the
control group.153 Enhanced weight loss in response to
oxyntomodulin may be due to an additional effect of
oxyntomodulin to increase energy expenditure. Acute administration of oxyntomodulin has been shown to increase voluntary activity in human subjects and to in-
