520 3 _aThe aim of this book is to provide an updated, detailed and comprehensive account of the field through a cutting-edge analysis by leading experts in the area. To achieve this, the book is divided into three parts, focusing on the peptides operating both centrally and peripherally at the same time as providing an integral and integrated perspective of the multifaceted and complex regulation of energy balance homeostasis. Part I contains three chapters covering the central pathways involved in the control of food intake. The first of these is devoted to the orexigenic neuropeptides, i.e. those that increase or stimulate appetite, while the second is a description of the peptides with anorexigenic effects, i.e. those that decrease or stop food intake. Since this is a rapidly evolving field, the third chapter concentrates on emerging and newly identified factors and their interaction with the already well-known peptides. Part II encompasses six chapters that deal with the peripheral signals participating in energy homeostasis and their control in health and disease. Regulation of body weight was once considered a simple feedback control system in which the hypothalamus modulated food intake and energy expenditure to compensate for fluctuations in body weight. The existing body of evidence has fostered the transition from the classic adipostat, a sensor of body adiposity that informs the hypothalamus about the abundance of energy stores, to a more dynamic and multifactorial model including signals emerging from several different organs such as the gut, the liver, the pancreas and the vascular system. The underlying molecular mechanisms by which adipose tissue enlargement and the subsequent increase in adipokines contribute to the pathophysiological events in the gastrointestinal, hepatic, pancreatic, musculoskeletal, cardiovascular and immune systems are now beginning to be better understood and are covered in detail in this section of the book. Part III contains six chapters providing an integrative approach to current knowledge in energy balance regulation. Adipose tissue biology and the hierarchy of the neural circuitry controlling energy homeostasis deserve special attention, as does the relevance of food reward signals and the links between the homeostatic and hedonic systems. Specific chapters address the available advances in technology to analyse these complex issues, including functional neuroimaging and the whole range of the 'omics' strategies. The final chapter takes a fresh and innovative look at future potential approaches to obesity management.
