夜食综合征确实存在

[font=Verdana, Arial, Tahoma][size=14px]Night-eating [url=http://www.enread.com/science/96772.html]syndrome[/url] may appear when the genes that synchronise eating patterns with sleep are faulty, research on mice concluded.[/size][/font]
[font=Verdana, Arial, Tahoma][size=14px]This alters meal times, leading to over-eating and weight gain.[/size][/font]
[font=Verdana, Arial, Tahoma][size=14px]About 1-2% of people have the condition. Signs include waking in the night and being unable to go back to sleep without eating.[/size][/font]
[font=Verdana, Arial, Tahoma][size=14px]The syndrome has recently been classified as an eating disorder, but the cause is unknown.[/size][/font]
[font=Verdana, Arial, Tahoma][size=14px]The food consumed is often unhealthy and high in calories, leading to weight gain and sometimes obesity.[/size][/font]
[font=Verdana, Arial, Tahoma][size=14px]The study, published in Cell Reports, looked at mice bred with a human version of a body-clock [url=http://www.enread.com/science/96772.html]gene[/url] in place of the mouse one.[/size][/font]
[font=Verdana, Arial, Tahoma][size=14px]When the gene was silenced, the mice ate much earlier than normal ones, when they should have been asleep.[/size][/font]
[font=Verdana, Arial, Tahoma][size=14px]Mutations in a related body-clock gene - implicated in sleep disorders - led to the mice sleeping more.[/size][/font]
[font=Verdana, Arial, Tahoma][size=14px]The researchers think the genes work together to keep eating and sleeping synchronised.[/size][/font]
[font=Verdana, Arial, Tahoma][size=14px]A fault in either gene causes disruption in sleeping and eating patterns.[/size][/font]
[font=Verdana, Arial, Tahoma][size=14px]"For a long time, [url=http://www.enread.com/science/96772.html]people[/url] discounted night-eating syndrome as not real," said lead researcher Satchidananda Panda, of the Salk Institute in La Jolla, US.[/size][/font]
[font=Verdana, Arial, Tahoma][size=14px]"It opens up a whole lot of future questions about how these cycles are regulated."[/size][/font]
