SATB1 Exhibits a Protective Role in HAmylin-Oligomer-Induced Neuronal Damage and Cognition Decline. [PDF]
In this study, bilateral hippocampal injections of hAmylin oligomers induced an obvious cognition decline in mice, along with upregulation of SATB1 in the mouse hippocampus. In hAmylin‐induced mice, SATB1 knockdown (KD) further aggravated the above changes.

Structural insight into selectivity of amylin and calcitonin receptor agonists
Amylin receptors (AMYRs), heterodimers of the calcitonin receptor (CTR) and one of three receptor activity-modifying proteins, are promising obesity targets.

Mediators of Amylin Action in Metabolic Control
Amylin (also called islet amyloid polypeptide (IAPP)) is a pancreatic beta-cell hormone that is co-secreted with insulin in response to nutrient stimuli.

Inter-species cross-seeding: stability and assembly of rat-human amylin aggregates. [PDF]
Diseases such as type 2 diabetes, Alzheimer's and Parkinson's share as common feature the accumulation of mis-folded disease-specific protein aggregates into fibrillar structures, or plaques.

Cagrilintide is a novel long-acting amylin receptor agonist, which has shown a potent induction of weight loss. Interestingly, cagrilintide is a Dual Amylin and Calcitonin Receptor Agonist (DACRA) derived from an amylin backbone.

MCP-1 upregulates amylin expression in murine pancreatic β cells through ERK/JNK-AP1 and NF-κB related signaling pathways independent of CCR2. [PDF]
BackgroundAmylin is the most abundant component of islet amyloid implicated in the development of type 2 diabetes. Plasma amylin levels are elevated in individuals with obesity and insulin resistance.

Amylin and Calcitonin: Potential Therapeutic Strategies to Reduce Body Weight and Liver Fat
The hormones amylin and calcitonin interact with receptors within the same family to exert their effects on the human organism. Calcitonin, derived from thyroid C cells, is known for its inhibitory effect on osteoclasts.

Role and Cytotoxicity of Amylin and Protection of Pancreatic Islet β-Cells from Amylin Cytotoxicity
Amylin, (or islet amyloid polypeptide; IAPP), a 37-amino acid peptide hormone, is released in response to nutrients, including glucose, lipids or amino acids. Amylin is co-stored and co-secreted with insulin by pancreatic islet β-cells.

Amylin Protein Expression in the Rat Brain and Neuro-2a Cells
The localization and expression of amylin protein in the rodent brain and mouse neuroblastoma Neuro-2a (N2a) are less widely known. Thus, this study investigated the expression distribution of amylin in the rat brain and N2a treated with steroid hormones.
