Abstract
CONTEXT The gut-derived peptide hormones glucagon-like peptide-1 (GLP-1), oxyntomodulin (OXM), and peptide YY (PYY) are regulators of energy intake and glucose homeostasis and are thought to contribute to the glucose-lowering effects of bariatric surgery. OBJECTIVE To establish the metabolomic effects of a combined infusion of GLP-1, OXM, and PYY (tripeptide GOP) in comparison to a placebo infusion, Roux-en-Y gastric bypass (RYGB) surgery, and a very low-calorie diet (VLCD). DESIGN AND SETTING Subanalysis of a single-blind, randomized, placebo-controlled study of GOP infusion (ClinicalTrials.gov NCT01945840), including VLCD and RYGB comparator groups. PATIENTS AND INTERVENTIONS Twenty-five obese patients with type 2 diabetes or prediabetes were randomly allocated to receive a 4-week subcutaneous infusion of GOP (n = 14) or 0.9% saline control (n = 11). An additional 22 patients followed a VLCD, and 21 underwent RYGB surgery. MAIN OUTCOME MEASURES Plasma and urine samples collected at baseline and 4 weeks into each intervention were subjected to cross-platform metabolomic analysis, followed by unsupervised and supervised modeling approaches to identify similarities and differences between the effects of each intervention. RESULTS Aside from glucose, very few metabolites were affected by GOP, contrasting with major metabolomic changes seen with VLCD and RYGB. CONCLUSIONS Treatment with GOP provides a powerful glucose-lowering effect but does not replicate the broader metabolomic changes seen with VLCD and RYGB. The contribution of these metabolomic changes to the clinical benefits of RYGB remains to be elucidated.

Abstract
PURPOSE The daily circadian cycle is known to modulate both feeding behavior and metabolism. As such, the timing of food consumption can play a role in regulating overall health. The purpose of this study is to determine whether fasting at different times of the day alters subsequent food consumption and levels of PYY3-36, a hormone secreted after a meal which inhibits appetite. METHODS Separate groups of mice were fasted at different times of the day: (1) start of the day, (2) middle of the day, (3) start of the night, and (4) middle of the night, and either injected with vehicle or PYY3-36 to assess their subsequent food consumption patterns, PYY3-36 levels, and glucose and insulin levels. We also investigated whether light exposure during the night would alter food consumption and PYY3-36 levels after fasting. RESULTS Mice fasted during the start of the daytime exhibited increased food consumption post-fast compared to mice fasted during the night. Injections of PYY3-36 during the night were more effective in reducing food consumption compared to PYY3-36 administration during the day. Constant light exposure suppressed food consumption after fasting and increased fasting PYY3-36 levels. CONCLUSIONS These results indicate that mice exhibit distinct food consumption patterns after being presented with a fast at different times of the day. Light exposure also modulates both food consumption after a fast and levels of PYY3-36.

Abstract
The gut hormone PYY3-36 reduces food intake in humans and exhibits at least additive efficacy in combination with GLP-1. However, the utility of PYY analogs as anti-obesity agents has been severely limited by emesis and rapid proteolysis, a profile similarly observed with native PYY3-36 in obese rhesus macaques. Here, we found that antibody conjugation of a cyclized PYY3-36 analog achieved high NPY2R selectivity, unprecedented in vivo stability, and gradual infusion-like exposure. These properties permitted profound reduction of food intake when administered to macaques for 23 days without a single emetic event in any animal. Co-administration with the GLP-1 receptor agonist liraglutide for an additional 5 days further reduced food intake with only one animal experiencing a single bout of emesis. This antibody-conjugated PYY analog therefore may enable the long-sought potential of GLP-1/PYY-based combination treatment to achieve robust, well-tolerated weight reduction in obese patients.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Roux-en-Y gastric bypass (RYGB) surgery is currently the most effective treatment of obesity, although limited by availability and operative risk. The gut hormones Glucagon-like peptide-1 (GLP-1), Peptide YY (PYY), and Oxyntomodulin (OXM) are elevated postprandially after RYGB, which has been postulated to contribute to its metabolic benefits. OBJECTIVE We hypothesized that infusion of the three gut hormones to achieve levels similar to those encountered postprandially in RYGB patients might be effective in suppressing appetite. The aim of this study was to investigate the effect of a continuous infusion of GLP-1, OXM, and PYY (GOP) on energy intake and expenditure in obese volunteers. METHODS Obese volunteers were randomized to receive an infusion of GOP or placebo in a single-blinded, randomized, placebo-controlled crossover study for 10.5 hours a day. This was delivered subcutaneously using a pump device, allowing volunteers to remain ambulatory. Ad libitum food intake studies were performed during the infusion, and energy expenditure was measured using a ventilated hood calorimeter. RESULTS Postprandial levels of GLP-1, OXM, and PYY seen post RYGB were successfully matched using 4 pmol/kg/min, 4 pmol/kg/min, and 0.4 pmol/kg/min, respectively. This dose led to a mean reduction of 32% in food intake. No significant effects on resting energy expenditure were observed. CONCLUSION This is, to our knowledge, the first time that an acute continuous subcutaneous infusion of GOP, replicating the postprandial levels observed after RYGB, is shown to be safe and effective in reducing food intake. This data suggests that triple hormone therapy might be a useful tool against obesity.

Abstract
Peptide YY 3-36-amide (PYY3-36) is a peptide hormone, which is known to decrease appetite and food-intake by activation of the Y2 receptor. The current studies were designed to identify the metabolites of PYY3-36 in mini-pig and rhesus monkey. Plasma samples were analyzed by high resolution LC-MS (and MS/MS) in order to unambiguously identify the metabolites of PYY3-36. In summary, the metabolism of PYY3-36 was similar in mini-pig and rhesus monkey. Several metabolites were identified and PYY3-34 was identified at the highest levels in plasma. In addition, mini-pigs were also dosed with PYY1-36-amide, PYY3-35, PYY3-34 and [N-methyl 34Q]-PYY3-36-amide in order to investigate the mechanisms by which PYY was metabolized. PYY3-35 was rapidly converted to PYY3-34 whereas dosing of PYY3-34 to mini-pigs only showed circulating degradation products at low levels, i.e., PYY3-34 was metabolically more stable than PYY3-36 and PYY3-35. [N-methyl 34Q]-PYY3-36-amide was hypothesized to be stable toward cleavage between 34Q and 35R and after i.v. administration to mini-pigs, one major cleavage product was identified as [N-methyl 34Q]-PYY3-35. Overall, this showed that cleavage between 35R and 36Y was possible as well as between 34Q and 35R (as shown for PYY3-35), which indicated that metabolism of PYY3-36 to PYY3-34 may be a two-step process. PYY1-36 was also dosed to mini-pigs, which showed that PYY1-36 was metabolized in the C-terminal as PYY3-36. The overall degradation pattern of PYY1-36 was more complex due to the simultaneous enzymatic degradation in the N-terminal to form PYY2-34/36 and PYY3-34/36. In vitro incubations with heparin stabilized plasma showed that PYY3-36 was degraded with a half-life of 175 min, whereas incubations with PYY3-35 (half-life of 6 min) showed a rapid formation of PYY3-34. In conclusion, the present studies showed that PYY3-36 underwent enzymatic degradation in the C-terminal part and that the major circulating metabolite was PYY3-34. Furthermore, it may be a sequential two-step process leading to the formation of PYY3-35 and subsequently the metabolically more stable PYY3-34.

Abstract
Challenges to peptide-based therapies include rapid clearance, ready degradation by hydrolysis/proteolysis, and poor intestinal uptake and/or a need for blood brain barrier transport. This work evaluates the efficacy of conjugation of vitamin B12 (B12) on sc administered peptide tyrosine tyrosine (PYY)(3-36) function. In the current experiments, a B12-PYY(3-36) conjugate was tested against native PYY(3-36), and an inactive conjugate B12-PYYC36 (null control) in vitro and in vivo. In vitro experiments demonstrated similar agonism for the neuropeptide Y2 receptor by the B12-PYY(3-36) conjugate (EC50 26.5 nM) compared with native PYY(3-36) (EC50 16.0 nM), with the null control having an EC50 of 1.8 μM. In vivo experiments were performed in young adult male Sprague Dawley rats (9 wk). Daily treatments were delivered sc in five 1-hour pulses, each pulse delivering 5-10 nmol/kg, by implanted microinfusion pumps. Increases in hindbrain Fos expression were comparable 90 minutes after B12-PYY(3-36) or PYY3-36 injection relative to saline or B12-PYYC36. Food intake was reduced during a 5-day treatment for both B12-PYY(3-36)- (24%, P = .001) and PYY(3-36)-(13%, P = .008) treated groups relative to baseline. In addition, reduction of food intake after the three dark cycle treatment pulses was more consistent with B12-PYY(3-36) treatment (-26%, -29%, -27%) compared with the PYY(3-36) treatment (-3%, -21%, -16%), and B12-PYY(3-36) generated a significantly longer inhibition of food intake vs. PYY(3-36) treatment after the first two pulses (P = .041 and P = .036, respectively). These findings demonstrate a stronger, more consistent, and longer inhibition of food intake after the pulses of B12-PYY(3-36) conjugate compared with the native PYY(3-36).

Abstract
Cholecystokinin (CCK)-induced suppression of feeding is mediated by vagal sensory neurons that are destroyed by the neurotoxin capsaicin (CAP). Here we determined whether CAP-sensitive neurons mediate anorexic responses to intravenous infusions of gut hormones peptide YY-(3-36) [PYY-(3-36)] and glucagon-like peptide-1 (GLP-1). Rats received three intraperitoneal injections of CAP or vehicle (VEH) in 24 h. After recovery, non-food-deprived rats received at dark onset a 3-h intravenous infusion of CCK-8 (5, 17 pmol·kg⁻¹·min⁻¹), PYY-(3-36) (5, 17, 50 pmol·kg⁻¹·min⁻¹), or GLP-1 (17, 50 pmol·kg⁻¹·min⁻¹). CCK-8 was much less effective in reducing food intake in CAP vs. VEH rats. CCK-8 at 5 and 17 pmol·kg⁻¹·min⁻¹ reduced food intake during the 3-h infusion period by 39 and 71% in VEH rats and 7 and 18% in CAP rats. In contrast, PYY-(3-36) and GLP-1 were similarly effective in reducing food intake in VEH and CAP rats. PYY-(3-36) at 5, 17, and 50 pmol·kg⁻¹·min⁻¹ reduced food intake during the 3-h infusion period by 15, 33, and 70% in VEH rats and 13, 30, and 33% in CAP rats. GLP-1 at 17 and 50 pmol·kg⁻¹·min⁻¹ reduced food intake during the 3-h infusion period by 48 and 60% in VEH rats and 30 and 52% in CAP rats. These results suggest that anorexic responses to PYY-(3-36) and GLP-1 are not primarily mediated by the CAP-sensitive peripheral sensory neurons (presumably vagal) that mediate CCK-8-induced anorexia.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE Peptide YY (PYY3-36) and pancreatic polypeptide (PP) potently inhibit food intake in rodents and humans, however, it is unclear whether they have any synergistic/additive interaction in decreasing food intake. DESIGN AND METHODS Fasted WT, Y2(-) (/) (-) , Y4(-) (/) (-) , or Y2Y4(-) (/) (-) mice were i.p. administrated with saline, PYY3-36, and/or PP. RESULTS Combined injection of PYY3-36 and PP reduces food intake in an additive manner was demonstrated in this study. This effect is mediated via Y2 and Y4 receptors, respectively. It was demonstrated that PYY3-36 and PP activate distinct neuronal pathways in the hypothalamus, as demonstrated by immunostaining for c-fos, which shows distinct patterns in response to either hormone. After PYY3-36 injection, neurons in the dorsal aspect of the arcuate nucleus (Arc), paraventricular nucleus, and dorso-medial nucleus of the hypothalamus (DMH) are activated with minimal responses seen in the ventro-medial nucleus of the hypothalamus (VMH) and lateral hypothalamic area (LHA) of WT mice. These effects are absent in Y2(-) (/) (-) mice. PP activates preferably the lateral aspect of the Arc, the DMH, VMH, and LHA in a Y4 receptor-dependent manner. Importantly, the expression pattern of c-fos immunoreactive neurons induced by combined treatment appears to be the sum of the effects of single treatments rather than a result of synergistic interaction. CONCLUSIONS These findings demonstrate that PYY3-36 and PP activate distinct pathways in the hypothalamus to reduce food intake in an additive manner.

Abstract
AIMS Peptide YY (PYY) is an endogenous anorectic gut-secreted peptide that has been shown to suppress appetite in animals and humans, when given by injection. This study tested if needle-free pulmonary delivery of PYY enables food intake suppression and reduced body weight gain in rats. The PYY pharmacokinetics and effects on brain neuropeptide levels were also examined. METHODS Rats received single or once-daily 7-day pulmonary administration of saline or PYYs. Food intake and body weight gain were monitored to study the effects of different doses (0.08-0.90 mg/kg) of PYY3-36, PYY1-36 and PYY13-36. Plasma PYY pharmacokinetics were determined via enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay. Changes in orexigenic neuropeptide Y (NPY) and c-Fos protein levels in the hypothalamus arcuate nucleus (ARC) were measured by immunofluorescence microscopy. RESULTS PYY3-36 caused dose-dependent and 4- to 6-h food intake suppression following pulmonary delivery. At 0.80 mg/kg, the effect was significant with 35.1 ± 5.7 and 19.7 ± 4.2% suppression at 4 and 6 h, respectively. Repeated administration for 7 days reduced cumulative body weight gain by 39.4 ± 11.0%. PYY1-36, but not PYY13-36, was equipotent to PYY3-36 in food intake suppression. The plasma PYY concentration reached its peak at 10 min following pulmonary delivery with 12-14% of bioavailability. Increased c-Fos and reduced NPY expressions were observed in the hypothalamus ARC, consistent with the magnitude of food intake suppression by each of the PYYs. CONCLUSIONS Pulmonary delivery of PYY enabled significant 4- to 6-h food intake suppression via 12-14% of lung absorption and hypothalamic ARC interaction, leading to reduced body weight gain in rats.

Abstract
Significant weight loss following Roux-en-Y gastric bypass surgery (RYGB) in obese humans correlates with enhanced secretion of anorexigenic gut hormones glucagon-like peptide-1 (GLP-1) and peptide YY(3-36) (PYY(3-36)). Our aim here was to identify a dosing strategy for intraperitoneal (IP) infusion of GLP-1 homologue exendin-4 alone and with PYY(3-36) that produces a sustained reduction in daily food intake and body weight in diet-induced obese (DIO) rats. We tested 12 exendin-4 strategies over 10 weeks. Exendin-4 infused during the first and last 3 h of the dark period at 15-20 pmol/h (0.15 nmol/kg/day) produced a sustained 24 ± 1% reduction in daily food intake for 17 days, and decreased body weight by 7%. In a separate group of DIO rats, none of seven dosing strategies combining exendin-4 and PYY(3-36) produced a similar reduction in daily food intake for >10 days. The subsequent decline in efficacies of exendin-4 alone and with PYY(3-36) on food intake and body weight in each experiment suggested possible receptor downregulation and tolerance to treatments. However, when treatments were discontinued for 1 day following losses in efficacies, daily food intake significantly increased. Together, these results demonstrate that (i) intermittent IP infusion of a low dose of exendin-4 can produce a relatively prolonged reduction in daily food intake and body weight in DIO rats, (ii) co-infusion of exendin-4 and PYY(3-36) does not further prolong this response, and (iii) activation of an orexigenic mechanism gradually occurs to counteract the inhibitory effects of exendin-4 alone and with PYY(3-36) on food intake and body weight.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE Peptide YY(3-36) (PYY(3-36)), a Y2 receptor agonist, and oxyntomodulin, a glucagon-like peptide 1 (GLP-1) receptor agonist, are cosecreted by intestinal L-cells after each meal. Separately each hormone acts as an endogenous satiety signal and reduces appetite in humans when infused intravenously. The aim of the current study was to investigate whether the anorectic effects of PYY(3-36) and oxyntomodulin can be additive. RESEARCH DESIGN AND METHODS Twelve overweight or obese human volunteers underwent a randomized, double-blinded, placebo-controlled study. An ad libitum test meal was used to measure energy intake during intravenous infusions of either PYY(3-36) or oxyntomodulin or combined PYY(3-36)/oxyntomodulin. RESULTS Energy intake during coadministration of PYY(3-36) and oxyntomodulin was reduced by 42.7% in comparison with the saline control and was significantly lower than that during infusions of either hormone alone. CONCLUSIONS The anorectic effects of PYY(3-36) and oxyntomodulin can be additive in overweight and obese humans. Coadministration of Y2 receptor agonists and GLP-1 receptor agonists may be a useful treatment strategy for obesity.

Abstract
Peptide YY (PYY) is a 36 amino acid multifunctional gut-brain hormone in mammals. PYY has recently raised great interest as it was shown to reduce food intake and body weight of mammals. While PYY and its receptors have been sequenced from many non-mammalian vertebrates, its functional role, especially in the regulation of food intake in lower vertebrates remain unknown. In this study, we identified the gene organization of goldfish PYY (gfPYY) and found abundant expression of PYY mRNA in the brain and digestive tract of goldfish. A 2.5-fold increase at 3h post-feeding and a 1.5-fold decrease in fasted animals was observed of PYY mRNA expression in the brain, suggesting an anorectic role for PYY in goldfish. A single intraperitoneal injection of 10 ng/g body weight gfPYY(1-36) or an intracerebroventricular injection of 5 ng/g body weight gfPYY(1-36) caused a 27% or 30% reduction in food intake in goldfish, respectively. Overall, our results, for the first time provide molecular and functional evidence for anorectic actions of PYY in goldfish.

Abstract
BACKGROUND SR141716 has been shown to significantly inhibit food intake and reduce body weight by antagonizing CB(1) receptors. The gut hormones peptide YY(3-36) (PYY(3-36)) and oxyntomodulin (OXM) inhibit food intake through Y(2) and Glucagon-Like-Peptide (GLP)-1 receptors respectively. OBJECTIVE To determine the effects of co-administration of SR141716 with either PYY(3-36) or OXM in mice on food intake. METHODS Mice (n = 14 per group) were fasted for 16 h prior to study days and given two intraperitoneal injections: study 1, vehicle-saline, SR141716-saline, vehicle-PYY3-36 or SR141716-PYY3-36; study 2: vehicle-saline, SR141716-saline, vehicle-OXM or SR141716-OXM. Food was returned and measured following injections. RESULTS Co-administration of SR141716-PYY(3-36) or SR141716-OXM showed greater inhibition in food intake when compared with administration of SR141716, PYY(3-36) or OXM alone. CONCLUSION Our data show that SR141716 in combination with PYY(3-36) or OXM reduces food intake additively in mice.

Abstract
Circulating levels of the pancreatic beta-cell peptide hormone amylin and the gut peptide PYY[3-36] increase after nutrient ingestion. Both have been implicated as short-term signals of meal termination with anorexigenic and weight-reducing effects. However, their combined effects are unknown. We report that the combination of amylin and PYY[3-36] elicited greater anorexigenic and weight-reducing effects than either peptide alone. In high-fat-fed rats, a single ip injection of amylin (10 microg/kg) plus PYY[3-36] (1000 microg/kg) reduced food intake for 24 h (P < 0.05 vs. vehicle), whereas the anorexigenic effects of either PYY[3-36] or amylin alone began to diminish 6 h after injection. These anorexigenic effects were dissociable from changes in locomotor activity. Subcutaneous infusion of amylin plus PYY[3-36] for 14 d suppressed food intake and body weight to a greater extent than either agent alone in both rat and mouse diet-induced obesity (DIO) models (P < 0.05). In DIO-prone rats, 24-h metabolic rate was maintained despite weight loss, and amylin plus PYY[3-36] (but not monotherapy) increased 24-h fat oxidation (P < 0.05 vs. vehicle). Finally, a 4 x 3 factorial design was used to formally describe the interaction between amylin and PYY[3-36]. DIO-prone rats were treated with amylin (0, 4, 20, and 100 microg/kg.d) and PYY[3-36] (0, 200, 400 microg/kg.d) alone and in combination for 14 d. Statistical analyses revealed that food intake suppression with amylin plus PYY[3-36] treatment was synergistic, whereas body weight reduction was additive. Collectively, these observations highlight the importance of studying peptide hormones in combination and suggest that integrated neurohormonal approaches may hold promise as treatments for obesity.

Abstract
Glucose-dependent insulinotropic polypeptide (GIP) and peptide YY (PYY) are secreted from the intestinal K- and L-cells, respectively, following a meal. Both peptides are believed to play a key role in glucose homeostasis and energy expenditure. This study investigated the effects of daily administration of the stable and specific GIP-R antagonist, (Pro(3))GIP (25 nmol/kg) and the endogenous truncated form of PYY, PYY(3-36) (50 nmol/kg), in mice fed with a high fat diet. Daily i.p. injection of (Pro(3))GIP, PYY(3-36) or combined peptide administration over 24 days significantly (P<0.05-0.01) decreased body weight compared with saline-treated controls without change in food intake. Plasma glucose levels and glucose tolerance were significantly (P<0.05) lowered by (Pro(3))GIP treatment alone, and in combination with PYY(3-36). These changes were accompanied by a slight improvement of insulin sensitivity in all of the treatment groups. (Pro(3))GIP treatment significantly reduced plasma corticosterone (P<0.05), while combined administration with PYY(3-36) significantly lowered serum glucagon (P<0.05). No appreciable changes were observed in either circulating or glucose-stimulated insulin secretion in all treatment groups. (Pro(3))GIP-treated mice had significantly (P<0.01) lowered fasting glucose levels and an improved (P<0.05) glycemic response to feeding. These comparative data indicate that chemical ablation of GIP receptor action using (Pro(3))GIP provides an especially effective means of countering obesity and related abnormalities induced by consumption of high fat energy rich diet.

Abstract
Intraveneous (i.v.) PYY(3-36) infusions have been reported to reduce energy intake (EI) in humans, whereas few studies exist on effects of PYY(1-36). The aim of the present study was to examine effects of subcutaneous (sc) injections of PYY(1-36) and PYY(3-36) on appetite, ad libitum EI, plasma concentrations of PYY and free fatty acids (FFA) in obese males. Twenty-four males (BMI 27-40 kg/m(2)) were randomly assigned to two groups receiving sc injections of either PYY(1-36) or PYY(3-36) in a blinded, placebo-controlled, dose-escalating, cross-over study. Subjects were studied 5 days in succession, with escalating doses of PYY(1-36) [saline, 50, 100, 150, and 200 pmol PYY(1-36)/kg lean body mass (LBM)], or PYY(3-36) (saline, 25, 50, 75, and 100 pmol PYY(3-36)/kg LBM), respectively. PYY injections resulted in dose-dependent increases in plasma PYY levels but no effect on EI in either the PYY(1-36) or the PYY(3-36) group. However, increasing doses of PYY(3-36), but not PYY(1-36), resulted in increased ratings of satiety and decreased ratings of hunger, thirst, and prospective food consumption. Although not dose dependently, significant elevation of plasma FFA was seen after injection of PYY(3-36), but not PYY(1-36). Although sc administration of PYY was well tolerated, it remains to be determined whether high-dose PYY(3-36) is sufficient in reducing EI in long-term trials, and if so, whether the reduction in EI occurs without nausea. PYY(1-36) is unlikely to be important in regulating energy intake. The PYY(3-36) administrations caused a non-dose-dependent mobilization of FFA, likely through a direct effect.

Abstract
Peptide YY (PYY) is a gastrointestinal hormone, localized in enteroendocrine L-cells. Its hydrolyzed form PYY(3-36) is a satiety factor. The aim of this study was to identify if intestinal PYY enteroendocrine cells or content correlate with the diet-induced obese (DIO) or diet-resistant (DR) phenotypes. We also examined intestinal sensitivity to PYY and PYY(3-36) in DIO and DR rats. Animals were maintained on a medium-high fat diet and split into DIO and DR groups based on weight gain. PYY immunoreactive cells were unaltered in DIO intestine and stomach compared to DR rats. PYY content and circulating levels were also unchanged in DIO rats. Intestinal PYY and PYY(3-36) responses were enhanced in fasted rats, and equipotent in both DIO and DR jejunum. We conclude that PYY cell number, tissue content and peripheral sensitivity are maintained in DIO rats. Our data suggests that neither PYY nor PYY(3-36) contribute to the maintenance of either the DIO or DR phenotype, and that peripheral resistance to PYY and PYY(3-36) does not accompany DIO.

Abstract
CONTEXT The gastrointestinal peptide hormone, peptide YY(3-36) (PYY(3-36)), is implicated to be a postprandial satiety factor. OBJECTIVE The aim of this study is to assess the safety, tolerability, and efficacy of intranasal PYY(3-36) to induce weight loss in obese patients. DESIGN The study was designed as a randomized, 2-wk, single-blind placebo run-in followed by a 12-wk double-blind, placebo-controlled treatment period. SETTING The study was set within a private and institutional practice. PATIENTS A total of 133 obese patients (body mass index, 30-43 kg/m(2); age, 18-65 yr) participated in the study. INTERVENTION Placebo or 200- or 600-microg PYY(3-36) was administered as an intranasal spray 20 min before breakfast, lunch, and dinner in conjunction with a hypocaloric diet and exercise. MAIN OUTCOME MEASURE Body weight was the main outcome measure. RESULTS The number of patients completing 12 wk on the drug was 38 of 43 (88%), 31 of 44 (70%), and 12 of 46 (26%) for placebo, 200 microg three times a day (t.i.d.) and 600 microg t.i.d., respectively. In the 600 microg t.i.d. group, 27 of 46 (59%) patients discontinued due to nausea and vomiting. Among all randomized patients who took at least one drug dose and had a postbaseline measurement, the mean body weight change from baseline was -2.8, -3.7, and -1.4 kg for placebo, 200 and 600 microg, respectively. The least squares mean difference (95% confidence interval) between placebo and 200 microg was -0.9 (-2.6, 0.7) kg (P = 0.251). A difference of 2.11 kg was sought. No meaningful inference can be drawn from the few patients who completed the study on 600 microg. CONCLUSIONS Intranasal PYY(3-36) as administered at these intervention doses and preprandial timing is not efficacious in inducing weight loss in obese patients after 12 wk of treatment.

Abstract
Peptide YY(3-36) [PYY(3-36)] is a gut-brain peptide that decreases food intake when administered by intravenous infusion to lean and obese humans and rats. However, chronic administration of PYY(3-36) by osmotic minipump to lean and obese rodents produces only a transient reduction in daily food intake and weight gain. It has recently been shown that 1-h intravenous infusions of PYY(3-36) every other hour for 10 days produced a sustained reduction in daily food intake, body weight, and adiposity in lean rats. Here, we determined whether intermittent delivery of PYY(3-36) can produce a similar response in diet-induced obese rats. During a 21-day period, obese rats (body fat >25%) received twice daily intraperitoneal infusion of vehicle (n = 18) or PYY(3-36) (n = 24) during hours 1-3 and 7-9 of the dark period. Rats had free access to both a 45% fat solid diet and a 29% fat liquid diet; intakes were determined from continuous computer recording of changes in food container weights. To sustain a 15-25% reduction in daily caloric intake, the initial PYY(3-36) dose of 30 pmol.kg(-1).min(-1) was reduced to 10 pmol.kg(-1).min(-1) on day 10 and then increased to 17 pmol.kg(-1).min(-1) on day 13. This dosing strategy produced a sustained reduction in daily caloric intake of 11-32% and prevented body weight gain (8 +/- 6 vs. 51 +/- 11 g) and fat deposition (4.4 +/- 7.6 vs. 41.0 +/- 12.8 g). These results indicate that intermittent intraperitoneal infusion of PYY(3-36) can produce a sustained reduction in food intake and adiposity in diet-induced obese rodents consuming palatable high-fat foods.

Abstract
Peptide YY (PYY)(3-36) has been shown to produce dramatic reductions in energy intake (EI), but no human data exist regarding energy expenditure (EE), glucose and fat metabolism. Nothing is known regarding PYY1-36. To compare effects of PYY(1-36) and PYY(3-36) on appetite, EI, EE, insulin, glucose and free fatty acids (FFA) concentrations, 12 lean and 12 obese males participated in a blinded, randomized, crossover study with 90-min infusions of saline, 0.8 pmol x kg(-1) x min(-1) PYY(1-36) and PYY(3-36). Only four participants completed PYY(3-36) infusions because of nausea. Subsequently, six lean and eight obese participants completed 0.2 pmol x kg(-1) x min(-1) PYY(3-36) and 1.6 pmol x kg(-1) x min(-1) PYY(1-36) infusions. PYY(3-36) [corrected] produced [corrected] lower ratings of well-being and [corrected] increases in heart rate, [corrected] FFA, and [corrected] postprandial [corrected] insulin concentrations. Furthermore, high-dose [corrected] PYY(3-36) (0.8 [corrected] pmol x kg(-1) x min(-1)) produced decreased [corrected] EI and increased postprandial [corrected] glucose concentrations and tendency to reduced EE [corrected]

Abstract
We used a conditioned taste aversion test to assess whether PYY(3-36) reduces food intake by producing malaise. Two-hour IV infusion of PYY(3-36) (8, 15, and 30 pmol/kg/min) at dark onset in non-food-deprived rats produced a dose-dependent inhibition of feeding and a conditioned aversion to the flavored chow paired with PYY(3-36) infusion. In food-deprived rats, PYY(3-36) at 2 and 4 pmol/kg/min inhibited intake of a flavored saccharin solution without producing conditioned taste aversion, whereas higher doses (8 and 15 pmol/kg/min) inhibited saccharin intake and produced taste aversion. These results suggest that anorexic doses of PYY(3-36) may produce a dose-dependent malaise in rats, which is similar to that reported for PYY(3-36) infusion in humans. Previous studies have shown that PYY(3-36) potently inhibits gastric emptying, and that gut distention can produce a conditioned taste aversion. Thus, PYY(3-36) may produce conditioned taste aversion in part by slowing gastric emptying.

Abstract
New approaches for enhancing intranasal drug delivery based on recent discoveries on the molecular biology of tight junctions (TJ) are significantly improving the bioavailability of 'non-Lipinsky' small molecules, and peptide, protein and oligonucleotide drugs. As knowledge of the structure and function of the TJ has developed, so has the ability to identify mechanism-based TJ modulators using high-throughput molecular biology-based screening methods. The present review focuses on recent developments on the TJ protein complex as a lipid raft-like membrane microdomain, the emerging role of unique endocytic pathways in regulating TJ dynamics, and the utility of techniques such as RNA interference and phage display to study TJ components and identify novel peptides and related molecules that can modulate their function. Experimental and statistical methodologies used for the identification of new classes of TJ modulators are described, which are capable of reversibly opening TJ barriers with broad potential to significantly improve intranasal and, eventually, oral drug delivery. The development of an advanced intranasal formulation for the obesity therapeutic PYY(3-36), the endogenous Y2 receptor agonist is also reviewed.

Abstract
AIMS/HYPOTHESIS Dipeptidyl peptidase IV (DP IV) inhibitors are currently being developed to prolong the biological activity of insulinotropic peptides as a novel approach in the treatment of diabetes. We hypothesised that DP IV inhibition could attenuate the satiety actions of peptide YY (PYY) by altering the conversion of PYY(1-36) to PYY(3-36). MATERIALS AND METHODS The effects of PYY delivered by osmotic mini-pumps were assessed in rats treated with a DP IV inhibitor and in a rat model deficient in DP IV. RESULTS Pharmacological levels of total PYY were found in the circulation after the exogenous administration of PYY(3-36). While both PYY(1-36) and PYY(3-36) reduced food intake in normal rats, PYY(1-36) was ineffective in rats deficient in DP IV. When re-fed after a 24-h fast, DP IV-deficient rats exhibited higher food intake and weight gain than normal rats. Moreover, unlike controls, there was no postprandial increase in PYY levels in DP IV-deficient rats. Despite these findings, administration of a DP IV inhibitor, Pro-boroPro, did not alter the acute anorectic effects of exogenous PYY(1-36) in normal rats. This could be the result of the protection of other appetite regulatory peptides or the generation of PYY(3-36) by remaining DP IV activity or other dipeptidyl peptidases. CONCLUSIONS/INTERPRETATION Although DP IV inhibition with Pro-boroPro attenuated the generation of PYY(3-36), our results indicate that short-term DP IV inhibition does not eliminate the satiety actions of exogenously administered PYY(1-36) at the doses tested.

Abstract
Previously, a novel tight junction modulating (TJM) peptide was described affording a transient, reversible lowering of transepithelial electrical resistance (TER) in an in vitro model of nasal epithelial tissue. In the current report, this peptide has been further evaluated for utility as an excipient in transepithelial drug formulations. Chemical stability was optimal at neutral to acidic pH when stored at or below room temperature, conditions relevant to therapeutic formulations. The TJM peptide was tested in the in vitro tissue model for potential to enhance permeation of a low-molecular-weight (LMW) drug, namely the acetylcholinesterase inhibitor galantamine, as well as three peptides, salmon calcitonin, parathyroid hormone 1-34 (PTH(1-34)), and peptide YY 3-36 (PYY(3-36)). In all cases, the TJM peptide afforded a dramatic improvement in drug permeation across epithelial tissue. In addition, a formulation containing PYY(3-36) and TJM peptide was dosed intranasally in rabbits, resulting in a dramatic increase in bioavailability. The TJM peptide was as or more effective in enhancing PYY(3-36) permeation in vivo at a 1000-fold lower molar concentration compared to using LMW enhancers. Based on these in vitro and in vivo data, the novel TJM peptide represents a promising advancement in intranasal formulation development.

Abstract
The gut hormone peptide YY (PYY) was recently proposed to comprise an endogenous satiety factor. We have studied acute anorectic functions of PYY(3-36) in mice and rats, as well as metabolic effects of chronic PYY(3-36) administration to diet-induced obese (DIO) mice and rats. A single intraperitoneal injection of PYY(3-36) inhibited food intake in mice, but not in rats. We next investigated the effects of increasing doses (100, 300, and 1,000 microg.kg-1.day-1) of PYY(3-36) administered subcutaneously via osmotic minipumps on food intake and body weight in DIO C57BL/6J mice. Whereas only the highest dose (1,000 microg.kg-1.day-1) of PYY(3-36) significantly reduced food intake over the first 3 days, body weight gain was dose dependently reduced, and on day 28 the group treated with 1,000 microg.kg-1.day-1 PYY(3-36) weighed approximately 10% less than the vehicle-treated group. Mesenteric, epididymal, retroperitoneal, and inguinal fat pad weight was dose dependently reduced. Subcutaneous administration of PYY(3-36) (250 and 1,000 microg.kg-1.day-1) for 28 days reduced body weight and improved glycemic control in glucose-intolerant DIO rats. Neither 250 nor 1,000 microg/kg PYY(3-36) elicited a conditioned taste aversion in male rats.

Abstract
Peptide YY (PYY) and glucagon like peptide (GLP)-1 are cosecreted from intestinal L cells, and plasma levels of both hormones rise after a meal. Peripheral administration of PYY(3-36) and GLP-1(7-36) inhibit food intake when administered alone. However, their combined effects on appetite are unknown. We studied the effects of peripheral coadministration of PYY(3-36) with GLP-1(7-36) in rodents and man. Whereas high-dose PYY(3-36) (100 nmol/kg) and high-dose GLP-1(7-36) (100 nmol/kg) inhibited feeding individually, their combination led to significantly greater feeding inhibition. Additive inhibition of feeding was also observed in the genetic obese models, ob/ob and db/db mice. At low doses of PYY(3-36) (1 nmol/kg) and GLP-1(7-36) (10 nmol/kg), which alone had no effect on food intake, coadministration led to significant reduction in food intake. To investigate potential mechanisms, c-fos immunoreactivity was quantified in the hypothalamus and brain stem. In the hypothalamic arcuate nucleus, no changes were observed after low-dose PYY(3-36) or GLP-1(7-36) individually, but there were significantly more fos-positive neurons after coadministration. In contrast, there was no evidence of additive fos-stimulation in the brain stem. Finally, we coadministered PYY(3-36) and GLP-1(7-36) in man. Ten lean fasted volunteers received 120-min infusions of saline, GLP-1(7-36) (0.4 pmol/kg.min), PYY(3-36) (0.4 pmol/kg.min), and PYY(3-36) (0.4 pmol/kg.min) + GLP-1(7-36) (0.4 pmol/kg.min) on four separate days. Energy intake from a buffet meal after combined PYY(3-36) + GLP-1(7-36) treatment was reduced by 27% and was significantly lower than that after either treatment alone. Thus, PYY(3-36) and GLP-1(7-36), cosecreted after a meal, may inhibit food intake additively.

Abstract
PYY (3-36) is postulated to act as a satiety factor in the gut-hypothalamic pathway to inhibit food intake and body weight gain in humans and rodent models. We determined the effect of 14-day continuous intravenous infusion of PYY (3-36) (175 microg/kg/day) on food intake and body weight gain in colectomized male Wistar rats. Colectomy caused an increase in plasma PYY levels at 7 days which was reduced at 14 days but still significantly elevated compared to basal preoperative values. Animals treated with continuous PYY (3-36) infusion had significantly elevated PYY levels compared to the control group throughout the whole experiment, but showed a similar pattern of food intake and body weight gain. In conclusion, although continuous intravenous infusion is the most physiologically relevant method to mimic high postprandial PYY levels, we did not observe any significant effect on food intake and body weight gain in non-food deprived colectomized animals. This suggests that PYY has, if at all, only a minor role in food intake in rats.

Abstract
Peptide YY(3-36) [PYY(3-36)] is a hormone that is released after meal ingestion that is currently being investigated for the treatment of obesity; however, there are conflicting reports of the effects of PYY(3-36) on energy balance in rodent models. To shed light on this controversy, we studied the effect of PYY(3-36) on food intake and body weight in a nonhuman primate. Intravenous PYY(3-36) infusions before a morning meal transiently suppressed the rate of food intake but did not suppress the evening meal or 24-h intake. Twice-daily or continuous intravenous PYY(3-36) infusions to supraphysiological levels (levels that exceeded normal physiological levels) again suppressed the rate of feeding for the morning but not the evening meal. Twice-daily intravenous PYY(3-36) infusions for 2 weeks significantly decreased body weight in all test animals (average weight loss 1.9%) without changing insulin response to glucose infusion. These results show that endogenous PYY(3-36) may alter morning but not evening meal intake, and supraphysiological doses are required for effective suppression of food intake.

Abstract
The neuropeptide Y (NPY)/peptide YY (PYY) system has been implicated in the physiology of obesity for several decades. More recently ignited enormous interest in PYY3-36, an endogenous Y2-receptor agonist, as a promising anti-obesity compound. Despite this interest, there have been remarkably few subsequent reports reproducing or extending the initial findings, while at the same time studies finding no anti-obesity effects have surfaced. Out of 41 different rodent studies conducted (in 16 independent labs worldwide), 33 (83%) were unable to reproduce the reported effects and obtained no change or sometimes increased food intake, despite use of the same experimental conditions (i.e. adaptation protocols, routes of drug administration and doses, rodent strains, diets, drug vendors, light cycles, room temperatures). Among studies by authors in the original study, procedural caveats are reported under which positive effects may be obtained. Currently, data speak against a sustained decrease in food intake, body fat, or body weight gain following PYY3-36 administration and make the previously suggested role of the hypothalamic melanocortin system unlikely as is the existence of PYY deficiency in human obesity. We review the studies that are in the public domain which support or challenge PYY3-36 as a potential anti-obesity target.

Abstract
BACKGROUND & AIMS Studies in animals and humans suggest a role for peptide YY (PYY3-36) in regulating satiety. The physiologic role of PYY3-36, however, has not been investigated in detail. METHODS The present study was designed to examine PYY release in response to 2 meals differing in their calorie content and to relate the plasma levels to those obtained after exogenous infusion. In a second step, the effect of graded intravenous doses (0, 0.2, 0.4, and 0.8 pmol.kg(-1).min(-1)) of synthetic human PYY3-36 on food intake was investigated in healthy male volunteers in a double-blind, placebo-controlled fashion. RESULTS Plasma PYY concentrations increased in response to food intake reflecting the size of the calorie load. Graded PYY3-36 infusions resulted in a dose-dependent reduction in food intake (maximal inhibition, 35%; P < .001 vs control) and a similar reduction in calorie intake (32%; P < .001). Fluid ingestion was also reduced by PYY (18% reduction; P < .01). Nausea and fullness were the most common side effects produced by PYY, especially at the highest dose. Furthermore, subjects experienced less hunger and early fullness in the premeal period during PYY3-36 infusion at the highest dose (P < .05). CONCLUSIONS This study shows that intravenous infusions of PYY3-36 decrease spontaneous food intake; the inhibition is, however, only significant at pharmacologic plasma concentrations. Whether PYY3-36 has a physiologic role in the regulation of satiety in humans remains to be defined.

Abstract
The gut hormone peptide YY(3-36) [PYY(3-36)] decreases food intake when administered by intravenous infusion to lean and obese humans and rats. Whether chronic administration of PYY(3-36) produces a sustained reduction in food intake and adiposity is the subject of intense debate. Batterham et al. (R. L. Batterham, M. A. Cowley, C. J. Small, H. Herzog, M. A. Cohen, C. L. Dakin, A. M. Wren, A. E. Brynes, M. J. Low, M. A. Ghatei, R. D. Cone, and S. R. Bloom. Nature 418: 650-654, 2002) first reported that PYY(3-36) reduces food intake and weight gain in rats when injected into the peritoneal cavity twice daily for 7 days. Numerous laboratories have failed to confirm that daily injections of PYY(3-36) decrease body weight. Continuous subcutaneous administration of PYY(3-36) by osmotic minipump has been reported to reduce daily food intake in rodents but only during the first 3-4 days of administration. Here we show the effects of different daily patterns of intravenous infusion of PYY(3-36) on food intake, body weight, and adiposity in rats tethered via infusion swivels to computer-controlled pumps. Measurement of food bowl weight recorded by computer every 20 s permitted daily assessment of the instantaneous effects of PYY(3-36) administration on food intake and meal patterns. One-hour intravenous infusions of PYY(3-36) at 30 pmol x kg(-1) x min(-1) every other hour for 10 days produced a sustained reduction in daily food intake of approximately 20% and decreased body weight and adiposity by 7 and 35%, respectively. Thus dosage pattern is critical for producing a sustained effect of PYY(3-36) on food intake and adiposity.

Abstract
The vagus nerve forms a neuro-anatomical link between the gastrointestinal tract and the brain. A number of gastrointestinal hormones, including cholecystokinin and ghrelin, require an intact vagal-brainstem-hypothalamic pathway to affect CNS feeding circuits. We have shown that the effects of peripheral administration of both peptide YY(3-36) (PYY(3-36)) and glucagon-like peptide-1 (GLP-1) on food intake and activation of hypothalamic arcuate feeding neurones are abolished following either bilateral sub-diaphragmatic total truncal vagotomy or brainstem-hypothalamic pathway transectioning in rodents. These findings suggest that the vagal-brainstem-hypothalamic pathway may also play a role in the effects of circulating PYY(3-36) and GLP-1 on food intake.

Abstract
1 Microinjection of peptide YY (PYY) (0.23-2.3 nmol) into the posterior hypothalamic nucleus (PHN) of conscious rats evokes a dose-dependent pressor response and a bradycardia. 2 The increase in mean arterial pressure evoked by 2.3 nmol of PYY was not blocked by intravenous pretreatment with: (i) the nicotinic ganglionic receptor antagonist pentolinium (PENT, 10 mg kg(-1)) alone, or in combination with the muscarinic receptor antagonist methylatropine (MeATR, 1 mg kg(-1)); (ii) the alpha(1)-adrenoceptor antagonist prazosin (PRAZ, 0.2 mg kg(-1)); (iii) the V(1)-vasopressin receptor antagonist [d(CH(2))(5)Tyr(Me)]AVP (AVPX, 20 microg kg(-1)); (iv) the combination of AVPX, PENT and MeATR; (v) the combination of PRAZ, AVPX, PENT, MeATR, and the alpha(2)-adrenoceptor antagonist yohimbine (0.3 mg kg(-1)); or (vi) the angiotensin II type 1 receptor antagonist ZD 7155 (1 mg kg(-1)). 3 Adrenal demedullation inhibited the PYY-evoked responses of drug-naive rats, and rats pretreated with the combination of PENT, MeATR and AVPX. 4 Transection of the splanchnic nerve innervating the adrenal medullae attenuated the bradycardia, as did ZD 7155, but not the PYY-evoked pressor response. 5 Systemic pretreatment of rats with the neuropeptide Y(1) receptor antagonist BIBP 3226 (1 mg kg(-1)) blocked the PYY-evoked cardiovascular changes, but not those evoked by microinjection of carbachol (5.5 nmol) into the PHN. 6 These results suggest that the cardiovascular changes evoked from the PHN by PYY requires the presence of the adrenal medullae, which are stimulated by: (i) a hormone to release an NPY-like substance that evokes the pressor response, and (ii) the splanchnic nerve to evoke the release of a substance that results in the bradycardia.

Abstract
Peptide YY (PYY) is a postprandially released gut hormone. Peripheral administration of one form of the peptide PYY3-36 produces a short-term reduction in food intake in rodents. Initial reports suggested that effects of PYY3-36 on food intake are mediated by increasing the anorexigenic drive from melanocortin neurons in the hypothalamic arcuate nucleus. However, more recent data have demonstrated that the anorexigenic activity of PYY3-36 is not dependent on melanocortin ligands or their receptors in the CNS. We demonstrate here that the anorexigenic actions of PYY3-36 are also not dependent on the vagus nerve, a common pathway of satiety signaling. Peripherally administered PYY3-36 activates neurons in the area postrema and nucleus tractus solitarius, brainstem areas known to mediate effects of certain aversive stimuli. Furthermore, peripheral administration of PYY3-36 causes conditioned taste aversion in mice. Thus, inhibition of food intake by PYY3-36 may result in part from induction of an aversive response.

Abstract
Peptide YY(3-36) (PYY(3-36)) is released by the gut in response to nutrient ingestion. It modulates the activities of orexigenic neuropeptide Y (NPY) neurons and anorexigenic proopiomelanocortin (POMC) neurons in the hypothalamus to inhibit food intake. Because both NPY and POMC have also been shown to impact insulin action, we wondered whether PYY(3-36) could improve insulin sensitivity. To address this question, we examined the acute effect of intravenous PYY(3-36) on glucose and free fatty acid (FFA) flux during a hyperinsulinemic-euglycemic clamp in mice maintained on a high-fat diet for 2 weeks before the experiment. We also evaluated the effects of PYY(3-36) infusion on glucose uptake in muscle and adipose tissue in this experimental context. Under basal conditions, none of the metabolic parameters were affected by PYY(3-36). Under hyperinsulinemic conditions, glucose disposal was significantly increased in PYY(3-36)-infused compared with vehicle-infused mice (103.8 +/- 10.9 vs. 76.1 +/- 11.4 micromol.min(-1).kg(-1), respectively; P = 0.001). Accordingly, glucose uptake in muscle and adipose tissue was greater in PYY(3-36)-treated animals, although the difference with controls did not reach statistical significance in adipose tissue (muscle: 2.1 +/- 0.5 vs. 1.5 +/- 0.5 micromol/g tissue, P = 0.049; adipose tissue: 0.8 +/- 0.4 vs. 0.4 +/- 0.3 micromol/g tissue, P = 0.08). In contrast, PYY(3-36) did not impact insulin action on endogenous glucose production or FFA metabolism. These data indicate that PYY(3-36) reinforces insulin action on glucose disposal in mice fed a high-fat diet, through a mechanism that is independent of food intake and body weight. In contrast, it leaves glucose production and lipid flux largely unaffected in this experimental context.

Abstract
Batterham et al. report that the gut peptide hormone PYY3-36 decreases food intake and body-weight gain in rodents, a discovery that has been heralded as potentially offering a new therapy for obesity. However, we have been unable to replicate their results. Although the reasons for this discrepancy remain undetermined, an effective anti-obesity drug ultimately must produce its effects across a range of situations. The fact that the findings of Batterham et al. cannot easily be replicated calls into question the potential value of an anti-obesity approach that is based on administration of PYY3-36.

Abstract
Polypeptide YY(3-36) (PYY(3-36)) is a gastrointestinal secreted molecule, agonist of neuropeptide Y (NPY) receptor subtypes Y2 and Y5, that has been recently involved as anorexigenic signal in the network controlling food intake. Notably, several factors primarily involved in food intake control and energy homeostasis (as leptin, orexins, ghrelin and NPY) have been linked also to the regulation of anterior pituitary hormone secretion and carry out pleiotropic effects upon the reproductive axis. However, whether similar actions are conducted by PYY(3-36) remains so far largely unexplored. Present studies were undertaken to analyze the potential effects of PYY(3-36) in the control of prolactin (PRL) secretion in the rat. To this end, responses to PYY(3-36) in terms of PRL secretion were monitored in vitro, after pituitary exposure to 10(-8) to 10(-6) M concentrations, and in vivo, after i.p. administration of different doses of PYY(3-36) (3, 10 and 30 microg/kg) to prepubertal male and female rats. In addition, the in vivo effects of PYY(3-36) were tested after central (i.c.v.) administration of 3 nmol of the peptide to prepubertal rats, and in hyperprolactinaemic aged females. PYY(3-36) stimulated, in a dose-dependent manner, in vitro PRL secretion by pituitaries from prepubertal male and female rats. In contrast, systemic administration of PYY(3-36) failed to modify serum PRL levels, whereas central infusion of PYY(3-36) significantly inhibited PRL secretion in prepubertal rats. Finally, PRL secretion was stimulated in aged hyperprolactinaemic female rats by systemic administration of PYY(3-36). In conclusion, the anorexigenic peptide PYY(3-36) may participate in the control of PRL secretion in the prepubertal rat, acting at pituitary (stimulatory effect) and extra-pituitary (likely inhibitory action at the hypothalamus) sites of the lactotrope axis. Moreover, net actions of PYY(3-36) on PRL secretion may depend on the age and prevailing PRL levels.

Abstract
Peptide YY(3-36) (PYY(3-36)), a peptide released postprandially by the gut, has been demonstrated to inhibit food intake. Little is known about the mechanism by which PYY(3-36) inhibits food intake, although the peptide has been shown to increase hypothalamic proopiomelanocortin (POMC) mRNA in vivo and to activate POMC neurons in an electrophysiological slice preparation. Understanding the physiology of PYY(3-36) is further complicated by the fact that some laboratories have had difficulty demonstrating inhibition of feeding by the peptide in rodents. We demonstrate here that, like cholecystokinin, PYY(3-36) dose-dependently inhibits food intake by approximately 20-45% over a 3- to 4-h period post ip administration, with no effect on 12-h food intake. This short-lived satiety effect is not seen in animals that are not thoroughly acclimated to handling and ip injection, thus potentially explaining the difficulty in reproducing the effect. Surprisingly, PYY(3-36) was equally efficacious in inducing satiety in wild-type and melanocortin-4 receptor (MC4-R)-deficient mice and thus does not appear to be dependent on MC4-R signaling. The expression of c-Fos, an indirect marker of neuronal activation, was also examined in forebrain and brainstem neurons after ip treatment with a dose of PYY(3-36) shown to induce satiety. The peptide induced no significant neuronal activation in the brainstem by this assay, and only modest activation of hypothalamic POMC neurons. Thus, unlike cholecystokinin, PYY(3-36)-induced satiety is atypical, because it does not produce detectable activation of brainstem satiety centers and is not dependent on MC4-R signaling.

Abstract
It has recently been suggested that gut-derived PYY(3-36) may be involved in the central mediation of post-prandial satiety signals. We have examined the acute effects of peripherally administered PYY(3-36) on food intake and hypothalamic gene expression of neuropeptides in mice. A single intraperitoneal injection of PYY(3-36) to mice that had been fasted for 24h resulted in a highly significant reduction in food intake at 6 and 24h post-injection but not at 48h. However, in freely fed mice, food intake was unaltered by PYY(3-36) administration. In the arcuate nucleus POMC mRNA expression was significantly elevated at 6h and remained elevated at 24h following PYY(3-36) injection. By contrast NPY mRNA expression in the arcuate nucleus was suppressed at 6h but not at 24h post-injection. In the lateral hypothalamus there were no differences in MCH mRNA expression at either time point. In conclusion, peripherally administered PYY(3-36) has a suppressive effect on food intake that is more prominent in recently fasted mice and lasts up to 24 h. This is associated with a short-lived suppression of NPY mRNA, a longer lasting increase in POMC mRNA but no change in MCH mRNA expression.

Abstract
The influence of intravenous peptide YY (PYY) on the gastric injury induced by 45% ethanol was investigated in urethane-anesthetized rats. PYY (25, 75, 125, and 250 pmol x kg(-1) x h(-1)) significantly reduced gastric lesions by 36, 59, 40, and 38%, respectively. Antibody against ratPYY (2 mg/rat) injected intravenously completely prevented the gastroprotective effect of intravenous PYY (75 pmol x kg(-1) x h(-1)), whereas injected intracisternally (460 microg/20 microl), it significantly prevented intracisternal PYY (24 pmol/rat)-induced 58% reduction of ethanol lesions but not that induced by intravenous PYY. Vagotomy did not influence the gastroprotective effect of intravenous PYY. The Y(1)/"PYY-preferring" receptor agonist [Pro(34)]PYY (75 pmol x kg(-1) x h(-1) iv) significantly decreased ethanol-induced gastric lesions by 82%, whereas [Leu(31), Pro(34)]NPY, a Y(1)/Y(3) agonist, and PYY-(3-36), a Y(2) agonist, had no effect. These data indicate that PYY-infused intravenously at doses reported to mimic postprandial peak blood levels prevents ethanol-induced gastric injury through vagal independent pathways and PYY-preferring receptors.

Abstract
Food intake is regulated by the hypothalamus, including the melanocortin and neuropeptide Y (NPY) systems in the arcuate nucleus. The NPY Y2 receptor (Y2R), a putative inhibitory presynaptic receptor, is highly expressed on NPY neurons in the arcuate nucleus, which is accessible to peripheral hormones. Peptide YY(3-36) (PYY(3-36)), a Y2R agonist, is released from the gastrointestinal tract postprandially in proportion to the calorie content of a meal. Here we show that peripheral injection of PYY(3-36) in rats inhibits food intake and reduces weight gain. PYY(3-36) also inhibits food intake in mice but not in Y2r-null mice, which suggests that the anorectic effect requires the Y2R. Peripheral administration of PYY(3-36) increases c-Fos immunoreactivity in the arcuate nucleus and decreases hypothalamic Npy messenger RNA. Intra-arcuate injection of PYY(3-36) inhibits food intake. PYY(3-36) also inhibits electrical activity of NPY nerve terminals, thus activating adjacent pro-opiomelanocortin (POMC) neurons. In humans, infusion of normal postprandial concentrations of PYY(3-36) significantly decreases appetite and reduces food intake by 33% over 24 h. Thus, postprandial elevation of PYY(3-36) may act through the arcuate nucleus Y2R to inhibit feeding in a gut-hypothalamic pathway.

Abstract
Neuropeptide Y (NPY) is involved in the central regulation of appetite, sexual behavior, and reproductive function. We have previously shown that chronic infusion of NPY into the lateral ventricle of normal rats produced an obesity syndrome characterized by hyperphagia, hyperinsulinism and collapse of reproductive function. We further demonstrated that acute inhibition of LH secretion in castrated rats was preferentially mediated by the NPY receptor subtype 5 (Y(5)). In the present study, the effects of chronic, central infusion of NPY, or the mixed Y2-Y5 agonist PYY(3-36), were evaluated both in normal male C57BL/6J mice and Sprague-Dawley rats. After a 7-day infusion to male mice, both NPY and PYY(3-36) at 5 nmol per day, induced marked hyperphagia leading to significant increases in body and fat pad weights. Furthermore, both compounds markedly reduced several markers of the reproductive axis. In the rat study, PYY(3-36) was more active than NPY to inhibit the pituitary-testicular axis, confirming the importance of the Y5 subtype for such effects. In the mouse, chronic NPY infusion induced a sustained increase in corticosterone and insulin secretion. Plasma leptin levels were also markedly increased possibly explaining the observed reduction in gene expression for hypothalamic NPY. Gene expression for hypothalamic POMC was reduced in the NPY- or PYY(3-36)-infused mice, suggesting that NPY exacerbated food intake by both acting through its own receptor(s), and reducing the satiety signal driven by the POMC-derived alpha-MSH. The present study in the mouse suggests in analogy with available rat data, that constant exposure to elevated NPY in the hypothalamic area unabatedly enhances food intake leading to an obesity syndrome including increased adiposity, insulin resistance, hypercorticism, and hypogonadism, reminiscent of the phenotype of the ob/ob mouse, that displays elevated hypothalamic NPY secondary to lack of leptin negative feedback action.

Abstract
BACKGROUND To further establish its role in the ileal brake mechanism, we determined the effect of the distal gut hormone peptide YY (PYY) on gallbladder motility and plasma gut hormones during the cephalic phase of meal stimulation. METHODS Eight healthy volunteers were studied in a randomized crossover design, with or without intravenous infusion of a physiological dose of PYY. On each occasion, subjects underwent modified sham feeding followed by real feeding. RESULTS PYY reduced gallbladder emptying in response to modified sham feeding from 23 +/- 5% to 5 +/- 7% (P < 0.01) and integrated plasma pancreatic polypeptide from 2337 +/- 397 pmol/L x 90 min to 903 +/- 232 pmol/L x 90 min (P < 0.01). PYY enhanced plasma cholecystokinin in response to real feeding from 53 +/- 9 pmol/L x 90 min to 82 +/- 17 pmol/L x 90 min (P < 0.05), but did not significantly affect maximum gallbladder emptying and tended to decrease plasma pancreatic polypeptide. CONCLUSION Circulating PYY suppresses the cephalic phase of postprandial gallbladder emptying, but not meal stimulated maximum emptying. The results support the hypothesis that the effect of PYY on gallbladder emptying is mediated by vagal-dependent rather than cholecystokinin-dependent pathways.

Abstract
Central injections of neuropeptide Y (NPY) increase food intake in Syrian hamsters; however, the effect of NPY on sexual behavior in hamsters is not known nor are the receptor subtypes involved in feeding and sexual behaviors. We demonstrate that NPY inhibits lordosis duration in a dose-related fashion after lateral ventricular injection in ovariectomized, steroid-primed Syrian hamsters. Under the same conditions, we compared the effect of two receptor-differentiating agonists derived from peptide YY (PYY), PYY-(3-36) and [Leu(31),Pro(34)]PYY, on lordosis duration and food intake. PYY-(3-36) produced a 91% reduction in lordosis duration at 0.24 nmol. [Leu(31),Pro(34)]PYY was less potent, producing a reduction in lordosis duration (66%) only at 2.4 nmol. These results suggest NPY effects on estrous behavior are principally mediated by Y2 receptors. PYY-(3-36) and [Leu(31),Pro(34)]PYY stimulated comparable dose-related increases in total food intake (2 h), suggesting Y5 receptors are involved in feeding. The significance of different NPY receptor subtypes controlling estrous and feeding behavior is highlighted by results on expression of Fos immunoreactivity (Fos-IR) elicited by either PYY-(3-36) or [Leu(31),Pro(34)]PYY at a dose of each that differentiated between the two behaviors. Some differences were seen in the distribution of Fos-IR produced by the two peptides. Overall, however, the patterns of expression were similar. Our behavioral and anatomic results suggest that NPY-containing pathways controlling estrous and feeding behavior innervate similar nuclei, with the divergence in pathways controlling the separate behaviors characterized by linkage to different NPY receptor subtypes.

Abstract
We have previously reported the Ts65Dn (Ts) mouse has impaired intestinal absorptive function and amino acid metabolism. Peptide YY (PYY) has enhanced glucose absorption in mice and turkeys. Other studies have reported that persons with Down syndrome have increased intestinal absorption of aluminum. Alzheimer's-like lesions have been reported in Ts mice. Trial 1 of this study examined brain Al concentrations, plasma metabolites and intestinal metabolism of 40 control and 40 Ts mice administered 300microg PYY/kg body weight or 0.9% saline for 3d. Trial 2 examined nutrient digestibility of 12 C and 12 Ts given PYY or saline for 14d. In Trial 1, PYY lowered (p<0.05) the brain Al pool (mg/g FBW) in both C and Ts mice by 80% compared to saline. Ts mice had increased plasma NH3 (329 vs. 269 microM, p<0.05), decreased plasma glucose (7.4 vs. 8.4 mM, p<0.01), elevated apparent energetic efficiency of jejunal glucose uptake (p<0.01) and elevated brain Al pool (0.41 vs. 0.12 microg, p=0.06) compared to C mice. In Trial 2, PYY increased small intestinal density (mg/cm) 12% in both genotypes (p<0.05), but did not alter nutrient digestibility. Brain Al accretion and hyperammonemia are proposed risk factors for Alzheimer's disease (AD). Ts mice and PYY appear to be suitable models for the study of metabolic and neurological anomalies in Down syndrome and AD.
