          In the Brain’s Cerebellum, a New Target for Suppressing Hunger

          Constant hunger associated with Prader-Willi syndrome is, in part, the result of disordered signaling in the cerebellum, an area of the brain associated with motor control and learning.

          Going to the Beach? Planning a Hike? Be Prepared: Men Will Be Much Hungrier!

          In males, sun exposure activates the p53 protein which signals to the body to produce the appetite-associated ghrelin hormone. In women, estrogen blocks the interaction between p53 and ghrelin, reducing the urge to eat following sun exposure.

          Cells That Control Hunger Affect Brain Structure and Function

          AgRP neurons in the hypothalamus play a critical role in shaping the structure and function of the prefrontal cortex in mice. The findings shed light on how the prefrontal cortex is altered in disorders such as schizophrenia.

          Front-Loading Calories Early in the Day Reduces Hunger but Does Not Affect Weight Loss

          Eating your largest meal at breakfast time may help decrease appetite for the rest of the day but it does not affect the way in which the body metabolizes calories in a different way to any other meal.

          New Pill Regulates Appetite by Modulating Ghrelin Release

          A new pill, called FLASH, has been developed to regulate appetite without drugs or invasive procedures. Researchers designed the pill to deliver electrical impulses to the stomach lining, modulating hunger-related gut hormones. The pill has been shown to affect the release of appetite hormone ghrelin in pig trials. FLASH could potentially treat various disorders related to metabolism and eating without pharmaceuticals or surgery. The researchers are now conducting additional preclinical testing and aim to start human trials within five years.

          Exercise Heightens Brain’s Food Cue Reactivity

          Exercise appears to amplify the brain's response to food cues, a new study reports. The researchers observed that running increased the reactivity of certain brain regions linked to attention, anticipation of reward, and memory. These changes occurred independently of overall alterations in brain blood flow.
