Intravenous Infusion of Peptide YY(3–36) Potently Inhibits Food Intake in Rats

Peptide YY (3–36) [PYY (3–36)] is postulated to act as a hormonal signal from the gut to the brain to inhibit food intake and gastric emptying. A mixed-nutrient meal produces a prolonged 2–3 h increase in plasma levels of both PYY (3–36) and PYY (1–36). We determined the dose-dependent effects of 3-...
