Exendin-4(1-32)K-Capric Acid, a Glucagon-Like Peptide-1 Receptor Agonist, Suppresses Food Intake via Arcuate Pro-Opiomelanocortin Neurons [PDF]
Endocrinology and MetabolismBackground Glucagon-like peptide-1 (GLP-1) is an incretin known for its anti-obesity effects, and several effective drugs targeting GLP-1 receptors (GLP-1Rs) have recently been developed to treat obesity.

Tumour–host interactions in Drosophila: mechanisms in the tumour micro‐ and macroenvironment
Molecular Oncology, EarlyView.This review examines how tumour–host crosstalk takes place at multiple levels of biological organisation, from local cell competition and immune crosstalk to organism‐wide metabolic and physiological collapse. Here, we integrate findings from Drosophila melanogaster studies that reveal conserved mechanisms through which tumours hijack host systems to ...

Safety and Tolerability of Givinostat: Evidence From Real‐World and Clinical Practice
Annals of Clinical and Translational Neurology, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Objective The aim of our study was to establish the prevalence of adverse events in a real‐world setting in boys living with Duchenne muscular dystrophy (DMD) treated with givinostat as part of an Expanded Access Program (EAP) in Italy. Methods The cohort included 90 ambulant boys, with age when treatment started between 6 and 23 years (mean ...

Neuronal Sequences and dynamic coding of water-sucrose categorization in rat gustatory cortices
iScienceSummary: The gustatory system allows us to perceive and distinguish sweetness from water. We studied this phenomenon by recording neural activity in rats’ anterior insular (aIC) and orbitofrontal (OFC) cortices while they categorized varying sucrose ...

Compound Heterozygote Friedreich Ataxia Patients With Covert Proximal FXN Gene Deletions
Annals of Clinical and Translational Neurology, EarlyView.ABSTRACT We present Friedreich ataxia patients with frataxin gene deletions. Data and records were collected at the Children's Hospital of Philadelphia from patients enrolled in the FACOMS natural history study. Patients with proximal deletions initially diagnosed with only one GAA expanded allele had more severe disease than their homozygous expansion

Annals of Clinical and Translational Neurology, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Multisystemic smooth muscle dysfunction syndrome (MSMDS) is an ultra‐rare, ACTA2‐related disorder characterized by severe cerebrovascular disease, aortic aneurysms, and smooth muscle dysfunction. Using molecular dynamics simulations and in silico drug screening, we identified that sapropterin dihydrochloride (Kuvan) is a candidate capable of ...
