Lateral hypothalamus controls behavioral thermoregulation POA controls physiological thermoregulation Homeostatic redundancy
Receptors are in the skin, body core, and hypothalamus Spinal or body centers control temperature in a broad range (2 -3 degrees C); hypothalamus controls temperature in a narrow range, and appears to affect the activity of the other systems.
Reactions to thirst
These cells stretch and contract in response to osmolality, thus opening and closing ion channels: mechanically gated channels. Receptor activity neurally activates the experience of thirst, and cause the posterior pituitary to release ADH Drinking behavior is also triggered, and stops when enough water has entered the gi tract.
Hypovolemic thirst baroreceptors trigger ADH (vasopressin) release from posterior pituitary
Absence
Blood flow receptors affect kidney action directly We experience thirst and salt hunger SNS activity constricts blood vessels
Sense level of angiotensis II through leaky BBB Subfornical organ increases activity in response to angiotensis II
Kidney to brain
ADH => Renin => Angiotensin II => constriction of peripheral blood vessels and release of aldosterone => sodium retention Angiotensin II also acts on the subfornical organ (SFO), which is outside the BBB, to trigger drinking. Angiotensin II is also manufactured in the brain, and can trigger thirst without SFO activity.
Bad tasting water decreases drinking, sweet taste increases drinking Eating increases drinking: Dry and protein-rich foods induce hypovolemic thirst, but drinking increases with any food. Insulin may be a trigger. Anticipation or learned drinking
Lipids,
Brain has first dibs on glucose, but will use ketones if fasting is prolonged.
Pancreatic hormones
Insulin
Helps
us use glucose energy first (cephalic) Helps store energy by conversion of unused glucose to glycogen and fat, and amino acids to proteins (absorptive and cephalic) Helps store converted energy in appropriate places (absorptive and cephalic)
Glucagon in fasting phase helps convert stored fat energy to free fatty acids and ketones
Set-point theories
Homeostatic
mechanisms and negative feedback loops Glucostatic and lipostatic theories: Short- and long-term homeostasis But why does weight increase long-term? Set-point theories ignore other influences
Conditioning
and cultural exposure: Fufu Deficiency selection: Sodium salt preference Deficiency selection: Aversion to low-nutrient tastes; overcome in humans by food preparation and by variety of choices of foods: Confusion.
More incentives...
Satiety, learned knowledge of the effects of a familiar food; decreased with novel foods in sham-eating studies Lower nutritive density, to a point Appetizer effect: Anticipation raises hunger Social influence: Group eating suppresses satiety Cafeteria effect: Variety of good-tasting foods increases consumption and compensates for sensory-specific satiety

hypothalamus (VMH) and satiety Lateral hypothalamus (LH) and eating Paraventricular nuclei
Gastrointestinal sensations GI peptides: cholecystokinin, bombesin, glucagon, somatostatin; CSF insulin levels
Amount of available food Incentive value of available food Amount of consumed energy Level of body fat Amount of energy expended Strength of the satiety signal
Disorders
Obesity Anorexia nervosa
Social
influence Dieting trigger Increased cephalic phase insulin response, even when protesting no feelings of hunger. Binging and purging may cancel the incentive value of food, by associating food with vomit.
Bulimia nervosa
