Striatal Dopamine Responses to Feeding are Altered in People with Obesity.

CONCLUSIONS: People with obesity and prediabetes do not increase striatal DA release after eating a meal to satiation compared with fasting overnight and fail to inhibit DA release in response to high-calorie food stimuli after eating a meal to satiation. These data suggest that impaired DA signaling contributes to greater energy intake during meals in this population. PMID: 32086877 [PubMed - as supplied by publisher]
