Leptin (ob protein) and glucagon-like peptide-1-(7-36) amide (GLP-1) are peptides recently proposed to be involved in the regulation of food intake. Although the ability of exogenous leptin and GLP-1 to modulate consummatory behavior is consistent with the suggestion that these peptides are endogenous regulatory agents, central administration of these peptides may have aversive side effects, which could explain the anorexia. In the present experiment, exposure to a saccharine taste was immediately followed by central administration of leptin or GLP-1 to determine if these drugs could produce a conditioned taste aversion (CTA) in rats. At doses equated for producing comparable reductions in short-term food intake, GLP-1, but not leptin, generated a robust CTA. Although leptin caused no aversion, this peptide was the only drug to cause relatively long-term reductions in food consumption (16 h) and body weight (24 h). Hence, the results indicate that central GLP-1 produces aversive side effects, and it is argued that these nonspecific effects may explain the anorectic actions of GLP-1.

Background: Impaired coronary microcirculation is associated with a poor prognosis in patients with type 2 diabetes. In the absence of stenosis of major coronary arteries, coronary flow reserve (CFR) reflects coronary microcirculation. Studies have shown beneficial effects of glucagon-like peptide-1 (GLP-1) on the cardiovascular system. The aim of the study was to explore the short-term effect of GLP-1 treatment on coronary microcirculation estimated by CFR in patients with type 2 diabetes. Methods: Twenty patients with type 2 diabetes and no history of coronary artery disease were treated with the GLP-1 analogue Liraglutide for 10 weeks, in a randomized single-blinded crossover setup. The effect of GLP-1 on coronary microcirculation was evaluated using non-invasive trans-thoracic Doppler-flow echocardiography during dipyridamole induced stress. Data were analysed as two-sample t-test after ensuring no carry over effect. Results: A total of 20 patients (15 male; mean age 57 ± 9; mean BMI 33.1 ± 4.4, mean baseline CFR 2.35 ± 0.45) completed full protocol. There was a small increase in CFR following GLP-1 treatment (change 0.18, CI95% [-0.01; 0.36], p=0.06) but with no difference in effect compared with the no treatment group (0.16, CI95% [-0.08; 0.40], p=0.18). GLP-1 significantly reduced glycated haemoglobin (-10.1 mmol/mol CI95% [-13.9; -6.4], p=<0.001) systolic blood pressure (-10 mmHg CI95% [-17; -3], p=0.01) and weight (-1.9 kg CI95% [-3.6; -0.2], p=0.03). Conclusion: Despite a significant weight-loss, reduction in HbA1c and systolic blood pressure, we did not find a significant improvement in coronary microcirculation after 10 weeks treatment with GLP-1. In our short-term treatment study, we therefore conclude that the GLP-1 analogue Liraglutide does not improve coronary microcirculation in patients with type 2 diabetes. Further long-term studies are needed to explore mechanisms to improve coronary microcirculation in patients with type 2 diabetes.

Abstract. We aimed to assess the effects of omega fatty acids on time depending on responses of satiety hormones. Sixty adult rats were randomly divided into 4 groups; linoleic acid (LA), α-linolenic acid (ALA), eicosapentaenoic acid (EPA) and docosahexaenoic acid (DHA) groups. For each fatty acid, the dose of 400 mg/kg was applied by oral gavage. Blood samples were taken after the 15, 30, 60 and 120 minutes. Ghrelin, cholecystokinin (CCK), glucagon-like peptide-1 (GLP-1), peptide YY (PYY), leptin and insulin hormones were analyzed by ELISA. We observed the significant increases (p<0.05) of the levels of CCK between n-3 (ALA, at 60th min; EPA, at 30th and 60th min and DHA, at 60 min) and n-6 (LA) supplemented rats. The highest GLP-1 levels were in ALA (0.70 ng/mL) and DHA (0.67 ng/mL) supplemented groups at 60th and 120th min indicating n-3 fatty acids efficiency on satiety compared to LA. It seems that ALA at 60th min and EPA at 120th min could provide the highest satiety effect with the highest insulin response, while the efficiency of LA supplementation on insulin-induced satiety diminished. The only significant change in AUC values among all hormones was in the CCK of the ALA group (p=0.004). The level of leptin increased in DHA and EPA supplemented rats (p=0.140). Our results showed that dietary omega fatty acids influenced the releasing of hormones in different ways possibly depending on chain length or saturation degree. Comprehensive studies need to be addressed for each fatty acid on satiety-related peptide hormones.

The CB1 cannabinoid receptor antagonist, N-piperidino-5-(4-chlorophenyl)-1-(2,4-dichlorophenyl)-4-methylpyrazole-3-carboxamide (rimonabant; SR141716A), and oleoylethanolamide (OEA) are known to reduce food consumption, by, at least partially, a peripheral regulation of feeding. The effects of systemic SR141716A or OEA (5 mg/kg) administrations on food consumption in 24 h food-deprived and fed rats were investigated. In fasted rats, SR141716A and OEA produced an inhibition in food intake measurable the first 20 min following injection. The increase in ghrelin levels observed in the vehicle-injected rats was abolished in animals receiving OEA and significantly reduced with SR141716A. Neither OEA nor SR141716A modified glucagon-like peptide-1 (7–36) amide portal levels 20 min after the administration. In fed rats, plasma ghrelin levels of SR141716A- and OEA-treated rats were 35% lower as compared with those of the vehicle-injected rats. These results show an influence of cannabinoid agents on circulating ghrelin levels and suggest that their short-term action on appetite seems to be in accordance with the control of secretion of gastrointestinal orexigenic peptides, mainly expressed in the upper part of the gastrointestinal tract.
