Abstract:
:The obesity epidemic is a major health and economic burden facing both developed and developing countries worldwide. Interrogation of the central and peripheral mechanisms regulating ingestive behaviors have primarily focused on food intake, and in the process uncovered a detailed neuroanatomical framework controlling this behavior. However, these studies have largely ignored the behaviors that bring animals, including humans, in contact with food. It is therefore useful to dichotomize ingestive behaviors as appetitive (motivation to find and store food) and consummatory (consumption of food once found), and utilize an animal model that naturally displays these behaviors. Recent advances in genetics have facilitated the identification of several neuronal populations critical for regulating ingestive behaviors in mice, and novel functions of these neurons and neuropeptides in regulating appetitive behaviors in Siberian hamsters, a natural model of food foraging and food hoarding, have been identified. To this end, hypothalamic agouti-related protein/neuropeptide Y expressing neurons (AgRP neurons) have emerged as a critical regulator of ingestive behaviors. Recent studies by Dr. Timothy Bartness and others have identified several discrete mechanisms through which peripheral endocrine signals regulate AgRP neurons to control food foraging, food hoarding, and food intake. We review here recent advances in our understanding of the neuroendocrine control of ingestive behaviors in Siberian hamsters and other laboratory rodents, and identify novel mechanisms through which AgRP neurons mediate appetitive and consummatory behaviors.
