The set point theory [is] arguably the most influential and debated theory of body weight control. It suggests that like temperature in a room controlled by a thermostat, body weight(or body fat) is controlled by an equivalent device(ponderostat, adipostat) residing in the hypothalamus. Borrowing from the engineering vocabulary, this device receives feedback input from the controlled parameter(room temperature, body weight or body fat), and generates an error signal in a comparator if this feedback signal is deviating from a preset reference value(set point). The error signal is used to turn up or down any mechanisms that determine the level of the controlled parameter(heat production or dissipation in the case of room temperature, metabolizable energy-in or energy lost in the case of body weight/adiposity).  4, record 1, English, - ponderostat

L'hypothalamus joue un rôle central dans le contrôle, voire la régulation des réserves énergétiques. C'est le site d'intégration d'un ensemble de mécanismes régulateurs qui intervient pour satisfaire la «valeur de consigne» d'un système réglant que l'on désigne sous le nom de «pondérostat» ou «adipostat». On peut donc considérer que toute déviation pathologique ou pathogène des réserves énergétiques implique cette structure centrale.  2, record 1, French, - pond%C3%A9rostat

Frozen cells(about 20 g wet weight) harvested from about 150 liter culture with sodium thiosulfate were suspended in 270 ml of 10 mM Tris-HCl buffer, pH 8. 0, and then disrupted in a French pressure cell(1, 100 kg/cm2). All subsequent steps were performed under aerobic conditions at room temperature. Unbroken cells were removed by centrifugation at 10, 000 x g for 15 min.
