METHOD OF REDUCING FOOD INTAKE
A method of decreasing the food intake of a subject, comprising the administration of a compound which increases FAO, where the compound does not act in the central nervous system to decrease appetite, where the compound is not a fatty acid, or an NPY-inhibitor, or an FAS inhibitor.
1 . A method of decreasing the food intake of a subject, comprising the administration of a compound which increases FAO, wherein the compound is not a fatty acid.
2 . The method of claim 1 , wherein the subject is an animal.
3 . The method of claim 1 , wherein the subject is a human.
4 . The method of claim 1 , wherein the compound is a CPT-1 stimulator.
5 . The method of claim 1 , wherein the compound is not a CPT-1 stimulator.
6 . The method of claim 1 , wherein the compound is a GPAT inhibitor.
7 . The method of claim 1 , wherein the compound is not a GPAT inhibitor.
8 . A method of decreasing the food intake of a subject, comprising the administration of a compound which increases FAO, wherein the compound does not act directly in the central nervous system to decrease appetite, and further wherein the compound is not a fatty acid.
9 . The method of claim 8 , wherein the subject is an animal.
10 . The method of claim 8 , wherein the subject is a human.
11 . A method of decreasing the food intake of a subject, comprising the administration of a compound which increases FAO, wherein the compound is not an NPY-inhibitor and does not reduce the expression of NPY by its direct effect in the hypothalamus, and is not a fatty acid
12 . The method of claim 11 wherein the subject is an animal.
13 . The method of claim 11 , wherein the subject is a human.
