Abstract
In a lower invertebrate hydra, growth factors appear to be released after food intake. We found that the growth factors depressed the feeding response. We also found a phasic increase of acidic FGF activity after food intake in cerebrospinal fluid from canulated rats. These observations suggest a close relationship between food intake and growth factors from hydra to mammals.
