Abstract
The increasing prevalence of alimentary obesity necessitates the search for its causes. In addition to eating disorders, other factors were found to affect lipid metabolism, including genetic predisposition, adipose tissue hormones, neurohormones, and digestive tract hormones regulating hunger and satiety, such as peptide YY (PYY) and ghrelin. This literature review focuses on these biologically active substances and their physiological and pathophysiological role. Key words: obesity, peptide, ghrelin
