Abstract
In healthy subjects, blood levels of both PYY1-36 and PYY3-36 increase after ingestion of a mixed meal. Simultaneously, total and acylated ghrelin levels diminish. The quotient between nadir acylated ghrelin/peak PYY3-36 diminishes after a mixed meal. All these data suggest the possible contribution of these peptides to appetite regulation after ingestion.
