Homeostatic control of metabolism Regulation of body temperature
About this Chapter Appetite and satiety Energy balance Metabolism Homeostatic control of metabolism Regulation of body temperature
3
Food intake is carefully controlled Two competing behavioral states
Appetite and Satiety Food intake is carefully controlled Two competing behavioral states Appetite (or hunger) = desire for food Satiety = sense of fullness (or satisfaction) Hypothalamus contains two key control centers Feeding center Satiety center
4
Four Types of Input to the Hypothalamus
Neural input from the cerebral cortex Neural input from the limbic system Peptide hormones from the GI tract Adipocytokines from adipose tissue
5
Two Theories for Regulation of Food Intake
Glucostatic theory Theory proposes that blood glucose levels ultimately control the feeding and satiety centers Lipostatic theory Theory proposes that the level of body fat regulates the feeding and satiety centers Recent discovery of several peptides (especially leptin and neuropeptide Y) seems to support this theory

Peptides Regulate the Feeding Center

Energy Balance - The Key to Weight Control
Energy input = energy output Energy output = work heat Three categories of work done by our cells Membrane transport Mechanical work Chemical work = building molecules, including synthesis of energy storage molecules Short-term energy storage (ATP) Long-term energy storage (glycogen, fat)

Methods for measuring energy use
Energy Balance Methods for measuring energy use Direct calorimetry Measures the energy content of food Fat 9 Kcal/g / protein and CHO ~ 4 Kcal/g Indirect calorimetry Estimates metabolic rate as a measure of energy use Oxygen consumption Carbon dioxide production Ratio of CO2 to O2 (RQ or RER)
10
Basal metabolic rate (BMR) is most common measure of metabolic rate
Six factors affecting metabolic rate 1 - Age and gender 2 - Amount of lean muscle mass 3 - Activity level 4 - Energy intake (diet) – fat vs protein thermogenesis 5 – Hormones – thyroid hormone thyroxin 6 - Genetics Only energy intake and level of physical activity can be voluntarily changed
11
Two Chemical Forms of Energy Storage
Glycogen (highly branched polymer of glucose) Stored glycogen binds water Liver glycogen is used to regulate blood glucose Muscle glycogen is used to power muscle contraction Fat (triglycerides) Fats have higher energy content per gram Little water is required for fat storage Energy in fats is harder and slower to access
12
Metabolism Metabolism is all of the chemical reactions in the body
1 - Extract energy from nutrients 2 - Use energy for work and synthesis 3 - Store excess energy Two types of metabolic pathways Anabolic pathways build large molecules Catabolic pathways break down large molecules Metabolism can be divided into two states Absorptive (“fed”) state is anabolic Post-absorptive (“fasted”) state is catabolic
13
Metabolic Fates and Nutrient Pools
Ingested biomolecules have three fates Immediate use in energy production Synthesis into needed macromolecules Storage for later use in energy production Nutrient pools are available for immediate use Free fatty acids Plasma glucose pool Amino acid pool Know definitions of: Glycogenesis / glycogenolysis / lipogenesis / lipolysis / ketosis
