The clinical pharmacology of appetite suppressant drugs.

摘要: One way of gaining a greater understanding the central mechanisms underlying hunger and regulation feeding behaviour in humans is to examine actions interactions on food intake drugs with known or presumed pharmacological modes action. To this end we have undertaken number studies which fall into three main categories: by amphetamine anorexia induced; possible role endogenous opioids feeding; action amino acids thought be involved feeding. In field potential for cross-fertilization between basic scientists working laboratory animals clinical human subjects exists. For example, pharmacologist has been able test out hypotheses could only developed using animals. Furthermore, it extend inquiry an exploration subjective dimensions appetite hunger.
