Cholecystokinin (CCK), glucose dependent insulinotropic peptide (GIP), and glucagon-like peptide 1 (GLP-1) regulate satiety as enterogastrons and incretins. They also directly affect the satiety centers. Therefore, these peptides may participate in the pathogenesis of eating disorders. CCK, GIP, and GLP-1 secretion were studied in 13 adolescent girls suffering from simple obesity, 13 girls with anorexia nervosa, and 10 healthy girls. Each girl was subjected to an oral glucose tolerance test (OGTT) and standard meal test. Blood was collected before stimulation and at 15, 30, 60, and 120 min. The concentrations of all peptides were determined by RIA commercial kits. Fasting and postprandial levels of these peptides as well as integrated outputs were measured. High postprandial levels of CCK observed in the girls with anorexia may aggravate the course of this disease by intensifying nausea and vomiting. Low postprandial level of GLP-1 in girls with simple obesity may be responsible for excessive ingestion of food and weaker inhibition of gastric emptying, which also leads to obesity.
