Numerous circulating peptides and steroids produced in the body influence appetite through their actions on the hypothalamus, the brain stem and the autonomic nervous system. These hormones come from three major sites—fat cells, the gastrointestinal tract and the endocrine pancreas. In this review we provide a synthesis of recent evidence concerning the actions of these hormones on food intake.

• High-fat diet-induced obesity in animal models (2010, background): “Signals from adipose tissue (leptin, adiponectin and resistin), stomach (ghrelin and obestatin), pancreas (insulin) and intestine (cholecystokinin, PYY and incretins including glucagon-like peptide-1 and gastric-inhibitory peptide) are sent to the brain to regulate energy balance (167–169) .”
