Obesity, a disorder of nutrient partitioning: the MONA LISA hypothesis
GA Bray - The Journal of nutrition, 1991 - Elsevier
The mechanisms underlying different types of obesity have been gradually clarified. Animal
models with hypothalamic, genetic or dietary obesity have been examined with a feedback
model. Four common final pathways are involved in this model. One of these final common
pathways is the sympathetic nervous system. Most Obesities k/Nown Are Low In
Sympathetic Activity states the MONA LISA Hypothesis. A second common pathway is the
endocrine system involving adrenal glucocorticosteroids. The third common pathway is …
