Abstract Irritable bowel syndrome (IBS) results from disordered brain–gut interactions. Identifying susceptibility genes could highlight the underlying pathophysiological mechanisms. We designed a digestive health questionnaire for UK Biobank and combined identified cases with IBS independent cohorts. conducted genome-wide association study 53,400 433,201 controls replicated significant associations in 23andMe panel (205,252 1,384,055 controls). Our confirmed six genetic loci IBS. Implicated...
Kisspeptin is distributed not only in brain areas for regulating reproduction but also nuclei involved feeding control. Whether kisspeptin alters food intake unknown mice. We examined how kisspeptin-10 influences after intracerebroventricular injection mice using automated monitoring. Kisspeptin-10 (0.3, 1, and 3 μg/mouse) dose-dependently inhibited the response to an overnight fast by 50, 95, 90% respectively, during 2-3 h period postinjection. The 1μg/mouse dose reduced 4-h cumulative 28%...
Bile acids may be involved in the regulation of food intake and energy metabolism. The aim study was to investigate association plasma bile with body mass index (BMI) possible involvement circulating modulation physical activity eating behavior. Blood obtained a group hospitalized patients normal weight (BMI 18.5-25 kg/m(2)), underweight (anorexia nervosa, BMI < 17.5 kg/m(2)) overweight (obesity 30-40, 40-50 >50 kg/m(2), n = 14-15/group) acid concentrations assessed. Physical were measured...

Carbohydrate malabsorption is frequent in patients with functional gastrointestinal disorders and healthy volunteers can cause symptoms mimicking irritable bowel syndrome (IBS). The aim of this study was to investigate the prevalence symptomatic lactose fructose a large population IBS-like based on Rome II criteria.Patients unclear abdominal discomfort (n = 2,390) underwent (50 g) hydrogen (H2) breath tests depending results further testing 25 g or 50 glucose, upper endoscopy duodenal...
Anorexia nervosa (AN) is accompanied by severe somatic and psychosocial complications. However, the underlying pathogenesis poorly understood, treatment challenging often hampered high relapse. Therefore, more basic research needed to better understand disease. Since hyperactivity plays a role in AN, we characterized an animal model mimic AN using restricted feeding hyperactivity. Female Sprague-Dawley rats were divided into four groups: no activity/ad libitum (ad libitum, AL, n = 9),...
Neurogastroenterological disorders (NGDs) are highly prevalent and substantially impact patients' quality of life. Effective treatment NGDs depends on the competence training medical caregivers. Students' perceived in neurogastroenterology its place school curricula assessed this study.A multi-center digital survey among students was conducted at five universities. Self-ratings regarding basic mechanisms, diagnosis, six chronic conditions were assessed. These included irritable bowel...
Clinical studies are evaluating the efficacy of synthetic ghrelin agonists in postoperative ileus management. However, control secretion under conditions gastric is largely unknown. Peripheral somatostatin inhibits animals and humans. We investigated time course changes postsurgery fasted rats whether receptor subtype 2 (sst(2)) signaling involved. Abdominal surgery (laparotomy 1-min cecal palpation) induced a rapid long-lasting decrease plasma acyl levels as shown by 64, 67, 59% reduction...
Background Activation of brain somatostatin receptors (sst1–5) with the stable pan-sst1–5 agonist, ODT8-SST blocks acute stress and central corticotropin-releasing factor (CRF)-mediated activation endocrine adrenal sympathetic responses. Brain CRF signaling is involved in delaying gastric emptying (GE) immediately post surgery. We investigated whether sst pathways modulates surgical stress-induced inhibition food intake. Methods Fasted rats were injected intracisternally (i.c.) agonists...
