Animals select food based on hungers that reflect dynamic macronutrient needs, but the hormonal mechanisms underlying nutrient-specific appetite regulation remain poorly defined. Here, we identify tachykinin (Tk) as a protein-responsive gut hormone in Drosophila and female mice, regulated by conserved environmental nutrient-sensing mechanisms. Protein intake activates Tk-expressing enteroendocrine cells (EECs), driving release of Tk through involving target rapamycin (TOR) transient receptor potential A1 (TrpA1). In flies, delineate pathway which controls selective sleep after protein ingestion, mediated glucagon-like adipokinetic (AKH) signalling to neurons adipose tissue. This mechanism suppresses appetite, promotes sugar hunger modulates wakefulness align behaviour with nutritional needs. Inhibiting prolongs lifespan AKH, revealing role for nutrient-dependent longevity. Our results provide framework understanding EEC-derived satiety signals hormones regulating choice, lifespan.

Enteroendocrine cells are specialized secretory lineage in the small and large intestines that secrete hormones peptides response to luminal contents. The various can act upon neighboring as part of endocrine system, circulate systemically via immune enteric nervous system. Locally, enteroendocrine have a major role gastrointestinal motility, nutrient sensing, glucose metabolism. Targeting intestinal or mimicking hormone secretion has been an important field study obesity other metabolic diseases.

Enteroendocrine cells (EECs) are an essential interface between the gut and brain that communicate signals about nutrients, pain, even information from our microbiome. EECs hormone-producing expressed throughout gastrointestinal epithelium have been leveraged by pharmaceuticals like semaglutide (Ozempic, Wegovy), terzepatide (Mounjaro), retatrutide (Phase 2) for diabetes weight control, linaclotide (Linzess) to treat irritable bowel syndrome (IBS) visceral pain. This review focuses on role of intestinal lumen brain. Canonically, environment through a variety hormones, dividing into separate classes based hormone each cell type secretes.

Abstract How the gastrointestinal tract communicates with brain, via sensory nerves, is of significant interest for our understanding human health and disease. Enterochromaffin (EC) cells in gut mucosa release a variety neurochemicals, including largest quantity 5‐hydroxytryptamine (5‐HT) body. 5‐HT other substances released from EC activate nerve endings wall remains major unresolved mystery. We used vivo anterograde tracing nodose ganglia to determine spatial relationship between synthesizing peptide‐YY (PYY)‐synthesizing their proximity vagal afferent that project mouse small intestine.

Interoception plays an important role in homeostatic regulation of energy intake and metabolism. Major interoceptive pathways include gut-to-brain adipose tissue-to brain signaling via vagal sensory nerves hormones, such as leptin. However, spinal neurons is rapidly emerging additional pathway.

Enteroendocrine cells (EECs) are well-known for their systemic hormonal effects, especially in the regulation of appetite and glycemia. Much less is known about how products made by EECs regulate local environment within intestine. Here, we focus on paracrine interactions between other intestinal as they three essential aspects homeostasis physiology: 1) stem cell function proliferation; 2) nutrient absorption; 3) mucosal barrier function. We also discuss ability to express multiple hormones, describe vitro vivo models study EECs, consider altered GI disease.

Interoception, the ability to precisely and timely sense internal body signals, is critical for life. The interoceptive system monitors a large variety of mechanical, chemical, hormonal, pathological cues using specialized organ cells, innervating neurons, brain sensory neurons.
