Zusammenfassung der Projektergebnisse
In summary, our data demonstrated the efficacy of a multimodal weight maintenance regime as long as such an intervention is performed but did not result in a sustained body weight reduction. This finding challenges the therapeutic concept of sustained weight management programs, as even programs as long as 15 months (three months weight reduction + 12 months weight maintenance) have no persistent effects which urges the need for novel treatment approaches such as recently shown by our group in monogenic obesity. Despite the preventive effect on weight regain during the intervention period, no effect on circulating hormonal parameters associated with body weight was observed. Although weight loss resulted in a substantial perturbation of several hormonal circuits involved in regulation of energy balance, no persisting adaption of neuro-endocrine parameters was found. These results challenges the hypothesis that a long persisting counter-regulation of circulating neuro-endocrine factors occurs after weight loss and mediates body weight regain, which was suggested in previous studies. Clearly, our analysis is restricted to circulating hormones and does not exclude the possibility that modifications at receptor level or intracellular signaling contribute to the phenomenon of body weight regain. The lack of specific hormones may occur at tissue level only and measurement at circulation may be misleading. The finding of a successful endocrine effect on weight loss of a MSH-analog in patients with rare severe early obesity, imply that, once local-hypothalamic- defects also in common severe obesity might be detectable, an endocrine treatment by peripheral application of a missing neuropeptide might be a realistic therapeutic option.
