The equilibrium and reciprocal actions among appetite-stimulating (orexigenic) and appetite-suppressing (anorexigenic) signals synthesized in the gut, brain, microbiome and adipose tissue (AT), seems to play a pivotal role in the regulation of food intake and feeding behavior, anxiety, and depression. A dysregulation of mechanisms controlling the energy balance may result in eating disorders such as anorexia nervosa (AN) and bulimia nervosa (BN). AN is a psychiatric disease defined by chronic self-induced extreme dietary restriction leading to an extremely low body weight and adiposity. BN is defined as out-of-control binge eating, which is compensated by self-induced vomiting, fasting, or excessive exercise. Certain gut microbiota-related compounds, like bacterial chaperone protein Escherichia coli caseinolytic protease B (ClpB) and food-derived antigens were recently described to trigger the production of autoantibodies cross-reacting with appetite-regulating hormones and neurotransmitters. Gut microbiome may be a potential manipulator for AT and energy homeostasis. Thus, the regulation of appetite, emotion, mood, and nutritional status is also under the control of neuroimmunoendocrine mechanisms by secretion of autoantibodies directed against neuropeptides, neuroactive metabolites, and peptides. In AN and BN, altered cholinergic, dopaminergic, adrenergic, and serotonergic relays may lead to abnormal AT, gut, and brain hormone secretion. The present review summarizes updated knowledge regarding the gut dysbiosis, gut-barrier permeability, short-chain fatty acids (SCFA), fecal microbial transplantation (FMT), blood-brain barrier permeability, and autoantibodies within the ghrelin and melanocortin systems in eating disorders. We expect that the new knowledge may be used for the development of a novel preventive and therapeutic approach for treatment of AN and BN.

This study tested the hypothesis that neuropeptide Y (NPY) and NPY receptors 1 (Y1) and 2 (Y2) participate in lung allograft rejection. Inflammation in grafts may include interaction between blood leukocytes and graft endothelial cells and marked accumulation of intravascular blood leukocytes. Fewer leukocytes accumulate in lung than in kidney allografts. Lung transplantion was performed in the Dark Agouti to Lewis rat strain combination. Intravascular and intraalveolar leukocytes were isolated from the grafts, and we evaluated the mRNA expression of NPY, Y1, and Y2 by real-time RT-PCR as well as the peptide expression of NPY by radioimmunoassay and immunohistochemistry. NPY and Y1 were expressed by pulmonary intravascular and intraalveolar leukocytes. Y1 was up-regulated by pulmonary intravascular and intraalveolar leukocytes during allograft rejection while Y2 could not be detected. Higher NPY expression levels in intravascular leukocytes were observed in lung compared to kidney allografts, which were investigated previously. Our findings suggest that an increased leukocytic expression of NPY in lung compared to kidney allografts results in a reduced accumulation of leukocytes in allograft vessels.
