Abstract
Breastfeeding is essential for somatic development, especially neurodevelopment. The abrupt termination of the mother-child bond, early weaning, is a stressful event during the neonatal period. This has lifelong consequences. The impact on neural plasticity will be reflected in behavioral expression, including feeding behavior. This behavior is modulated by encephalic and peripheral structures, such as the serotonergic and dopaminergic neurotransmission systems, as well as hormonal signaling, leptin, and ghrelin. The central nervous system, particularly the hypothalamus, receives information from the gastrointestinal tract to regulate hunger and satiety. Early weaning alters these mechanisms that control feeding behavior. The alterations most commonly reported in the literature are hyperphagia, increased body mass, and molecular alterations related to the control of feeding behavior. Studies have attempted to identify the factors involved in the changes in feeding behavior control caused by early weaning. Furthermore, pharmacological interventions, herbal medicines, calcium supplementation, and physical activity have been investigated as potential means of reversing these changes. Consequently, the objective of this literature review was to analyze the effects of early weaning on the modulation of parameters that act to control feeding behavior.
期刊介绍:
International Journal of Developmental Neuroscience publishes original research articles and critical review papers on all fundamental and clinical aspects of nervous system development, renewal and regeneration, as well as on the effects of genetic and environmental perturbations of brain development and homeostasis leading to neurodevelopmental disorders and neurological conditions. Studies describing the involvement of stem cells in nervous system maintenance and disease (including brain tumours), stem cell-based approaches for the investigation of neurodegenerative diseases, roles of neuroinflammation in development and disease, and neuroevolution are also encouraged. Investigations using molecular, cellular, physiological, genetic and epigenetic approaches in model systems ranging from simple invertebrates to human iPSC-based 2D and 3D models are encouraged, as are studies using experimental models that provide behavioural or evolutionary insights. The journal also publishes Special Issues dealing with topics at the cutting edge of research edited by Guest Editors appointed by the Editor in Chief. A major aim of the journal is to facilitate the transfer of fundamental studies of nervous system development, maintenance, and disease to clinical applications. The journal thus intends to disseminate valuable information for both biologists and physicians. International Journal of Developmental Neuroscience is owned and supported by The International Society for Developmental Neuroscience (ISDN), an organization of scientists interested in advancing developmental neuroscience research in the broadest sense.
