Abstract: The present invention relates to pharmaceutical and food compositions for inducing satiation and prolonging satiety in subjects in need thereof. In particular, the present invention relates to a method of inducing satiation in a subject in need thereof comprising administering to the subject an effective amount of a ClpB protein or an effective amount of a bacterium that expresses the ClpB protein.

Abstract: The present invention relates to method of preventing, treating or attenuating obesity-related manifestations in a human or non-human mammal subject in need thereof, said method comprising orally administering to the subject a composition comprising an effective amount Hafnia alvei probiotics; wherein said obesity-related parameters are selected from the group of hyperphagia, increased fat mass on lean mass ratio, increased waist circumference, postprandial hyperglycemia, fasting hyperglycemia and hypercholesterolemia.

Abstract: Methods of treating inflammation, in particular obesity, inducing satiation, prolonging satiety, and stimulating weight loss in a subject in need thereof, including the administration of a Brassicaceae protein extract. The Brassicaceae protein extract may be administered in the form of a dietary supplement or a food composition, either of which may include at least one additional ingredient.

Abstract: A composition essentially made of a Hafnia alvei probiotic strain expressing the ClpB protein; wherein the ClpB protein is in an amount of at least 0.7% (w/w) in weight relative to the total weight of the composition; and the ratio of the total number of Hafnia alvei Colony Forming Units to the total Hafnia alvei cell number ranges from 10?4 to 0.8. Also, oral dosage forms, namely gastro-resistant capsules including the composition of essentially made of a Hafnia alvei probiotic strain expressing the ClpB protein.

Abstract: The present invention relates to ClpB expressing bacteria and their impact on obesity. The present invention relates to bacterial ClpB protein and ClpB expressing bacteria and their impact on eating disorders. The invention further relates to compositions comprising antibiotic directed against at least one ClpB expressing bacterium as well as probiotics not expressing ClpB protein and their use in the treatment or prevention of eating disorders. The invention also relates to diagnostic tools for determining whether a subject is likely to respond to a method of treating eating disorders and to methods of immunization against eating disorders.

Abstract: Polypeptides and proteins that include a fragment of a ClpB protein and compositions therefrom. Methods of treatment and/or prevention of inflammation, in particular overweight and/or obesity-related diseases and disorders, with the polypeptides and proteins. Also, methods of inducing satiation, prolonging satiety, reducing meal size, reducing food intake, controlling weight gain and stimulating weight loss with the polypeptides and proteins.

Abstract: The present invention relates to CIpB expressing bacteria and their impact on obesity. The present invention relates to bacterial CIpB protein and CIpB expressing bacteria and their impact on eating disorders. The invention further relates to compositions comprising antibiotic directed against at least one CIpB expressing bacterium as well as probiotics not expressing CIpB protein and their use in the treatment or prevention of eating disorders. The invention also relates to diagnostic tools for determining whether a subject is likely to respond to a method of treating eating disorders and to methods of immunization against eating disorders.

Abstract: The present invention relates to bacterial Clp B protein and Clp B expressing bacteria and their impact on eating disorders. The invention further relates to compositions comprising antibiotic directed against at least one Clp B expressing bacterium as well as probiotics not expressing Clp B protein and their use in the treatment or prevention of eating disorders. The invention also relates to diagnostic tools for determining whether a subject is likely to respond to a method of treating eating disorders and to methods of immunization against eating disorders.

Abstract: The present invention relates to methods and kits of determining whether a subject is susceptible to have a hyper-aggressive behaviour. In particular, the present invention relates to a method for determining whether a subject is susceptible to have a hyper-aggressive behaviour comprising the steps consisting of i) isolating the auto antibodies that bind to adrenocorticotropic hormone (ACTH) from a blood sample obtained from the subject, ii) determining the affinity of the isolated autoantibodies iii) comparing the affinity determined at step ii) with a predetermined reference value and iv) concluding that the subject is susceptible to have a hyper-aggressive behaviour when the affinity determined at step ii) is higher than the predetermined reference value.

Abstract: The present invention relates to antibodies which bind human ghrelin and their use in methods of treating or preventing reduced appetite. The invention further relates to diagnostic tools for determining whether an individual is likely to respond to a method of treating or preventing reduced appetite.
