| Abstract: | Intraperitoneal injections fo the synthetic C-terminal octapeptide of cholecystokinin (CCK) into fasted 21-day-old weanling rats produced a significant suppression of intake of solid and liquid diets. Similar injections had no effect on water consumption of thirsty weanlings. The early appearance of CCK-induced satiety is consistent with the idea that this mechanism is responsible for the effectiveness of gastrointestinal factors in determining intake of very young rats. |
