Figure 1 Thirty minutes after intraperitoneal ghrelin administration, NOX‐B11 inhibited ghrelin induced food intake. Following intraperitoneal injection of 3 nmol ghrelin, animals who had been treated with 0.1 M phosphate buffered saline (n = 11) or 30 nmol control Spiegelmer (n = 8) exhibited a significant increase in food intake. The stimulatory effect of ghrelin on food intake was abolished in animals pretreated with 30 nmol NOX‐B11 (n = 8). Data are expressed as mean (SEM). *p<0.05 versus vehicle/vehicle and NOX‐B11.
