Abstract
Rats fasted for 24 h were fed for 3 h, after which time food was removed. Food intake decreased serotonin levels in the stomach and duodenum by 30 and 40%, respectively. These changes persisted for about 3 h. Food intake did not change tryptophan content in the stomach, while, in the duodenum, tryptophan level rose by 100% at the end of the feeding period and remained elevated for about 9 h.Entities:
