APP is released from PP cells adjacent to the A cells of the pancreas. It circulates as a dimer in concentrations up to 4 nM in birds (Table 7.1), which is 30-50 times that of the mammalian counterpart (Hazelwood, 1993b). It is released in response to elevated levels of amino acids or fatty acids, hypoglycaemia or nerve stimulation (Hazelwood, 1984). Its effects are diverse and include inhibition of exocrine pancreatic and intestinal secretioa and inhibition of intestinal motility. APP and the two related hormones, PYY from the intestine and NPY from the brain, have overlapping biological actions concerned with feeding behaviour and selection of nutrients.

Appetite control is a complex function of the brain that regulates feeding behaviour. This function integrates cognitive and emotional factors with a complex array of signals from the gastrointestinal tract and from adipose tissue. 

Modify the program such that it models adiabatic behaviour and study the influence of varying feed temperature. 

In additon to the central role of endocannabinoids in the regulation of feeding behaviour, a peripheral role has also been described. Gomez and coworkers [360] reported that food deprivation produced a 7-fold reduction in (1) levels in the small intestine of rats, but not in the brain or stomach. Intestinal (1) levels returned to normal when feeding resumed. The authors also showed that peripheral, but not central administration of (382) reduced food intake. The endocannabinoid system has also been reported to regulate peripheral lipogenesis [361].

A continuous fermenter with sterile feed is referred to as a chemostat. For constant volume operation, the inlet volumetric flow rate is equal to that at the output. With this model chemostat start-up, resultant steady state behaviour and cell washout phenomena are easily investigated by simulation.
