Histidyl-proline diketopiperazine decreases food intake in rats.
    Brain research, 1981, Apr-06, Volume: 210, Issue:1-2

    Histidyl-proline diketopiperazine was found to suppress food intake during stress-induced eating (10(-6)--10(-8) mol), starvation-induced eating (10(-8) mol) and over an 8 h period of spontaneous eating (10(-8) mol). In contrast, other cyclic piperazines failed to alter food ingestion. The suppressive effect of histidyl-proline diketopiperazine was antagonized by the enkephalin analogue, D-Ala-Met-enkephalin, in equimolar concentrations.
