Funded Activity Summary

Fat sensing in the oral cavity and gastrointestinal tract: role in the regulation of gastrointestinal function and energy intake in health and obesity. This project will determine whether a reduced capacity to sense, or taste, the presence of fats in the oral cavity and the gastrointestinal tract diminishes the effects of fat on those aspects of gut function that regulate appetite and suppress energy intake. The project will, accordingly, provide important insights into the pathophysiology of obesity.
