An Overview of Appetite-Regulatory Peptides in Addiction Processes; From Bench to Bed Side
There is a substantial need for new pharmacological treatments of addiction, and appetite-regulatory peptides are implied as possible candidates. Appetite regulation is complex and involves anorexigenic hormones such as glucagon-like peptide-1 (GLP-1 ...

Role of anti-diabetic drugs as therapeutic agents in Alzheimer's disease [PDF]
Recent data have suggested a strong possible link between Type 2 Diabetes Mellitus and Alzheimer’s disease (AD), although exact mechanisms linking the two are still a matter of research and debate. Interestingly, both are diseases with high incidence and
