Identification of central mechanisms underlying anorexigenic effects of intraperitoneal l -tryptophan
2018
A free essential amino acid, L-tryptophan (TRP), administered through a diet or directly into the gut, decreases food intake by engaging neural mechanisms. The ability of intragastric TRP to cross into the general circulation and through the blood–brain barrier, at least partly underlies hypophagia.
