본 연구는 7주령의 백서 40마리를 이용하여 만성 분절수면과 식이제한이 식욕조절 호르몬을 포함한 심혈관 위험지표에 미치는 영향에 대해 실험하였다. 13일 동안의 만성적인 분절수면 및 식이제한의 조건에 노출된 백서의 체중 변화와 혈중 leptin, ghrelin, adiponectin, cortisol, epinephrine, norepinephrine 등의 호르몬 농도, 심혈관 위험지표인 혈중 총콜레스테롤, LDL-cholesterol, HDL-cholesterol, 중성지방, 유리지방산의 농도를 대조군 및 3군의 실험군(만성 분절수면 군, 식이제한 군, 분절수면과 식이제한 모두를 적용한 군)에서 비교하였다. 그 결과 실험기간 동안 만성 분절수면 군에서 백서의 체중이 증가하며, 혈중 leptin 및 adiponectin 농도가 감소하고 ghrelin 농도가 증가하여 결국 혈중 LDL-cholesterol 농도가 증가하였다. 분절수면과 식이제한을 동시에 적용한 백서에서는 체중이 감소하고 adiponectin 농도는 대조군과 유의적인 차이를 보이지 않았으며 ghrelin 농도는 분절수면만 했던 백서에 비해 감소한 것으로 나타나 식이제한이 식욕을 조절하는 것으로 나타났다. 하지만 이들 백서에서 혈중 leptin 농도가 현격히 감소하고 혈중 LDL-cholesterol 농도가 증가하는 양상을 나타내 만성 분절수면 환자들의 심한 식이제한이 심혈관질환의 위험을 더욱 증가시킬 수 있다는 결과를 보여주었다.

This study aims to investigate changes in plasma lipid concentrations and appetite-regulating hormone levels after a 4% body fat reduction using a 9-week intervention involving aerobic exercise, a fat-oxidizing agent, and diet limitation. After the 9-week intervention, the aerobic exercise plus hydroxycitric acid (EX+HCA), exercise (EX), and diet limitation (DIET) groups achieved the target 4% body fat reduction from the baseline value. None of the plasma lipid indicators showed significant intergroup differences, indicating that plasma lipid levels are not influenced by body weight regulation. With regard to appetite-regulating hormones, no significant intergroup differences were observed in glucose, insulin, or glucagon-like peptide-1 levels, unlike ghrelin and leptin. Ghrelin levels in particular tended to decrease in the DIET group and increase in the HCA+EX and EX groups. Leptin levels significantly decreased in the HCA+EX and EX groups, whereas no differences were observed in the DIET group. Such results indicate that exercise alone without the administration of obesity diet supplements induces elevation in ghrelin levels and reduction in leptin levels, but that diet restriction alone does not influence changes in leptin levels. Taken together, we could not confirm any synergic effects arising from the use of a fat-oxidizing agent during an exercise program to control body weight. Furthermore, diet limitation unsupported by exercise had no effect on muscle mass reduction or appetite-regulating hormone levels; thus, it is not recommended as an effective body weight control method.

Obesity rates are increasing worldwide, associated with excess acute and chronic disease risk. In most countries, obesity rates among women exceed rates in men, particularly during the post menopausal years. Many factors affect body weight and appetite, including age, metabolic rate, physical activity level, stress, cultural factors, socioeconomic status, health status and health literacy, diet composition, attitudes, and beliefs. Gender affects appetite and body weight indirectly by altering factors contributing to food choice. However, there is emerging evidence that gender affects appetite and body weight directly, altering the physiological control systems regulating appetite. The follicular menstrual cycle phase (estrogen-rich) is associated with relative suppression of appetite. Lower estrogen levels are associated with increased food intake, body weight gain, and altered body fat distribution in humans and animals. This paper reviews the linkages between estrogen and appetite regulation. While relationships among appetite, body weight, and gender-linked hormones are complex, research elucidating these interrelationships could lead to development of gender-specific treatment approaches for obesity and appetite dysregulation.

We investigated the effects of short-term food restriction and repeated fasting and refeeding on appetite regulating hormones and adiponectin activity in rats. To investigate the acute and chronic effects of food restriction in vivo, Sprague-Dawley rats were divided into a control group (CON), a 1 day fasting group, a 2 days fasting gruop, a 3 days fasting gruop, a fasting and refeeding for 1 week gruoup and a fasting and refeeding for 2 weeks group. Blood glucose, triglyceride and total cholesterol decreased in all fasting groups compared to those in the CON group. Free fatty acid of all fasting groups was higher than those in the CON, and were lowest in the three cycle fasting and refeeding group. Blood insulin following short-term food restriction was lower than that in the CON. blood ghrelin increased significantly (p < 0.01) following the short-term food restriction, However, blood ghrelin in the repeated fasting and refeeding groups decreased significantly decreased (p < 0.01) compared to that in the CON and short-term food restriction group. In contrast, blood leptin decreased significantly (p < 0.01) in the short term food restriction group and the three cycle of fasting and refeeding group but increased in the six cycle of fasting and refeeding group. No significant differences in adiponectin contents were observed in the short-term food restriction group. But, adiponectin increased significantly (p < 0.01) following the fasting and refeeding cycles. Blood adiponectin and blood leptin levels were showed positively correlated ($r^2$ = 0.469) when all samples were analysed together.

Hesperetin (3',5,7-trihydroxy 4'-methoxyflavanone) and its glycoside hesperidin (hesperetin 7-rhamnoglucoside) in oranges have been reported to possess pharmacological effects related to anti-obesity. However, hesperetin and hesperidin have not been studied on suppressive effects on appetite. This study examined that hesperetin and hesperidin can stimulate the release of cholecystokinin (CCK), one of appetite-regulating hormones, from the enteroendocrine STC-1 cells, and then examined the mechanisms involved in the CCK release. Hesperetin significantly and dose-dependently stimulated CCK secretion with an $EC_{50}$ of 0.050 mM and increased the intracellular $Ca^{2+}$ concentrations ($[Ca^{2+}]_i$) compared to the untreated control. The stimulatory effect by hesperetin was mediated via the entry of extracellular $Ca^{2+}$ and the activation of TRP channels including TRPA1. These results suggest that hesperetin can be a candidate biomolecule for the suppression of appetite and eventually for the therapeutics of obesity.

수면은 필수적인 생리적 기능일 뿐만 아니라 인간의 성장, 성숙 및 전반적인 건강을 증진시키는 데 중요한 역할을 한다. 수면과 수면 장애가 대사성 질환에 미치는 영향에 대한 관심이 높아지고 있다. 폐쇄성 수면무호흡증은 일반적인 건강 문제이며, 지난 10년 동안 비만율의 증가로 인해 더 두드러진 대사 질환과 함께 폐쇄성 수면무호흡증의 유병률이 현저하게 증가했다. 폐쇄성 수면무호흡증에 의한 대사성 질환을 유발하는 근본적인 메커니즘은 다인성일 가능성이 높으며, 완전히 밝혀지지 않고 있지만, 염증과 산화 스트레스의 활성화와 식욕 조절 호르몬의 조절 장애는 폐쇄성 수면무호흡증 환자에게 나타나는 대사 기능 장애와 비만의 중요한 병리 생리학적 성분으로 나타났다. 본 연구에서는 폐쇄성 수면무호흡증과 대사질환의 연관성에 대한 연구 현황과 폐쇄성 수면무호흡증이 이러한 질병을 유발하는 병리생리학적 메커니즘에 대해 검토하고자 한다. 이를 통해 폐쇄성 수면무호흡증과 비만, 그리고 폐쇄성 수면무호흡증과 대사 기능 장애 사이의 잠재적인 상호작용을 이해할 수 있다.
