Scientists find that "glutamate genes" can cause compulsive eating

According to the Hafeneng Post, scientists recently discovered that a "glutamate gene" may cause people to oblige to eat, and their mouths do not stop to cause obesity.

Researchers used rats as the research object and found that mutations in the Bdnf gene make the brain unable to receive satiety messages.

The researcher hopes that the research findings will help treat obesity. This discovery was published in the online edition of the Journal of Natural Medicine.

U.S. National Institutes of Communications quoted researchers from the Georgetown University Medical Center as reporting that the discovery might open new strategies to help the brain control weight.

Leptin and insulin, the two most important hormones, secrete chemical signals when people are full, stimulating the neurons of the hypothalamus.

In mice with a Bdnf mutation, the neurons were not stimulated and they were constantly thinking about eating, so the body size was twice that of the mice without mutations in the Bdnf gene.

Professor Sadaf Farooqi of the University of Cambridge, who studies genetics and obesity, said that the role of genetic play is surprising, and its influence is often underestimated. The difference in body weight between two people is 4 to 7 Chengdu is affected by the gene.
