Research Abstract |
Lack of leptin receptor(Ob-Rb) function canceled effects of dietary beet fiber on energy intake and body fat. Ob-Rb might play predominant role in the mechanism. Dietary BF increased hypothalamic Ob-Rb gene expression and modified appetite regulating factors. Vagus nerve blocking technique revealed that brain-gut connection via vagus nerve might not be necessary to effects of dietary beet fiber on energy intake and body fat.
