Control of energy intake, either in response to changes in the energy content of food or in energy expenditures and storage, is based on the detection of a feedback signal generated in the processing of metabolic fuels for energy. Evidence from studies of the fructose analogue, 2,5-AM, indicates a sensor in liver responds to changes in intracellular ATP or some closely associated event and communicates this information to the brain via vagal afferent neurons. Such a mechanism could serve as the energy sensor which controls energy intake.
