title: Cytokines and Feeding.
abstract: Cytokines inhibit feeding through peripheral and brain mechanisms. Behavioral, cellular, and molecular studies show that interactions among cytokines, neurotransmitters, and peptides and modulation of hypothalamic neurons are involved in cytokine-induced feeding inhibition. This action of cytokines is relevant to the control of feeding in health and disease.
