Protective effects of Met-enkephalin on alcohol induced gastric lesions [PDF]
, 2000 The model of ethanol induced gastric lesions is useful in the evaluation of gastric cytoprotection. We used it to measure cytoprotective effects of two neuropeptides, Met-enkephalin (Peptid-M, LUPEX(R)) and alpha -melanocyte stimulating hormone (alpha ...

Expanding the genotypic spectrum of PCSK1 deficiency: A novel mutation in severe neonatal diarrhea
JPGN Reports, EarlyView.Abstract Among congenital diarrhea and enteropathies (CODEs), proprotein convertase subtilisin/kexin type 1 (PCSK1) deficiency is a rare monogenic disorder, associated with severe neonatal diarrhea and polyendocrinopathies. We report an 18‐day‐old male neonate, born to consanguineous parents, presenting with persistent watery diarrhea, metabolic ...
