Abstract
In order to investigate the role of insulin in the VMH in regulation of food intake in the rat, a specific antibody against rat insulin was injected in the VMH. The insulin antibody caused transient hyperphagia, when administered in the nighttime. This result is discussed in view of the glucostatic theory of the regulation of food intake.Entities:
