Satietogenic Protein from Tamarind Seeds Decreases Food Intake, Leptin Plasma and CCK-1r Gene Expression in Obese Wistar Rats.

ABSTRACT: OBJECTIVE:This study evaluated the effect of a protein, the isolated Trypsin Inhibitor (TTI) from Tamarindus indica L. seed, as a CCK secretagogue and its action upon food intake and leptin in obese Wistar rats. METHODS:Three groups of obese rats were fed 10 days one of the following diets: Standard diet (Labina®) + water; High Glycemic Index and Load (HGLI) diet + water or HGLI diet + TTI. Lean animals were fed the standard diet for the 10 days. Food intake, zoometric measurements, plasma CCK, plasma leptin, relative mRNA expression of intestinal CCK-related genes, and expression of the ob gene in subcutaneous adipose tissue were assessed. RESULTS:TTI decreased food intake but did not increase plasma CCK in obese animals. On the other hand, TTI treatment decreased CCK-1R gene expression in obese animals compared with the obese group with no treatment (p = 0.027). Obese animals treated with TTI presented lower plasma leptin than the non-treated obese animals. CONCLUSION:We suggest that TTI by decreasing plasma leptin may improve CCK action, regardless of its increase in plasma from obese rats, since food intake was lowest.

Project description:Background/objectivesCholecystokinin (CCK) is a regulator of appetite and energy intake in man. The aim of this study was to determine the effect of NN9056, a long-acting CCK-1 receptor-selective CCK analogue, on food intake and body weight (BW) in obese Göttingen Minipigs.Subjects/methodsTolerability of NN9056 and acute effects on food intake, pancreas histology, amylase and lipase levels were assessed in lean domestic pigs in doses up to 100 nmol/kg (n = 3-4). Subsequently, obese Göttingen Minipigs were treated subcutaneously (s.c.) once daily for 13 weeks with vehicle, NN9056 low dose (regulated from 5 to 2 nmol/kg) or NN9056 high dose (10 nmol/kg) (n = 7-8). Food intake was measured daily and BW twice weekly. At the end of the treatment period, an intravenous glucose tolerance test (IVGTT) and a 24-h exposure profile was obtained. Data are mean ± SD.ResultsThe acute studies in domestic pigs showed significant and dose-dependent effect of NN9056 on food intake, acceptable tolerability and no histopathological signs of pancreatitis. Sub-chronic treatment in obese Göttingen Minipigs was also well tolerated and accumulated food intake was significantly lower in both treated groups compared to vehicle, with no significant difference between the dose levels of NN9056 (41.8 ± 12.6, 51.5 ± 13.8 and 86.5 ± 19.5 kg in high-dose, low-dose and vehicle groups, respectively, p = 0.012 and p < 0.0001 for low and high dose vs. vehicle, respectively). Accordingly, there was a weight loss in both treated groups vs. a weight gain in the vehicle group (-7.2 ± 4.6%, -2.3 ± 3.2% and 12.3 ± 3.9% in the high-dose, low-dose and vehicle groups, respectively, p < 0.0001 for both vs. vehicle). IVGTT data were not significantly different between groups.ConclusionNN9056, a long-acting CCK-1 receptor-selective CCK analogue, significantly reduced food intake and BW in obese Göttingen Minipigs after once daily s.c. dosing for 13 weeks.
