Research Progress of Ghrelin on Feeding Regulation of Animals
Ghrelin is a gastric hormone with multiple physiological functions that plays an important role in reg-ulating appetite as well as lipid metabolism and glucose metabolism of animals.The effect of ghrelin is mainly regulated by the central nervous system,and it activates the ghrelin receptor in the brain area,which ultimately leads to the regulation of substance metabolism and appetite.With the deepening of research,ghrelin has also shown important functions in animal feeding,feed conversion rate and the treatment of anorexia.This review summarizes the related functions of ghrelin in feeding regulation,and provides reference for the future function exploration of ghrelin,the development of breeding industry and the research of related drugs.[Chinese Jour-nal of Animal Nutrition,2024,36(12):7635-7646]
