Gut Peptides in Food Intake and Energy: The 2006 Definitive Review

This comprehensive 2006 review covers all major gut peptides (GLP-1, PYY, CCK, ghrelin, oxyntomodulin, amylin, PP) in food intake regulation, with GLP-1 and PYY agonists identified as the most promising obesity drug targets.

What This Study Found

Complete 2006 mapping of gut peptide appetite regulation: GLP-1 and PYY3-36 as top obesity targets, with CCK, oxyntomodulin, amylin, and PP providing complementary satiety signals — ghrelin as the sole orexigenic gut peptide.
