Abstract:
A new study in Cell from Ivan de Araujo and colleagues reported that intestinal GLP-1 acts on an inter-organ sympathetic neural circuit that induces appetite suppression. This study revealed that GLP-1, secreted by ileal L cells, sensing by intestinal myenteric layer intestinofugal neurons activated a sympatho-gastro-spinal-reticular-hypothalamic pathway involved in appetite suppression, linking stomach distention to craniofacial programs for food rejection. These molecularly indentified, delimited enteric circuits may be targeted to ameliorate the abdominal bloating and loss of appetite typical of gastric motility disorders.
