Abstract
The six major research advances in metabolic and hormonal controls of food intake that have altered the direction or have broadened the scope of the field in the last 25 years are discussed. The advances selected are: (1) GI processes and meal termination—the CCK pathway; (2) Brain insulin hypothesis; (3) Glucose-dependent processes in periphery, plasma, and brain including the transient declines in blood glucose signaling meal initiation; (4) Fatty acid oxidation in the liver; (5) Behavioral and metabolic patterns; and (6) New pathways from molecular genetics and molecular biology—the OB protein pathway.
