Reference Gene Validation for RT–qPCR in PBMCs from Asthmatic Patients with or without Obesity
Obesity is known to impair the efficacy of glucocorticoid medications for asthma control. Glucocorticoid-induced gene expression studies may be useful to discriminate those obese asthmatic patients who present a poor response to glucocorticoids.

Feeding Stimulates Sphingosine-1-Phosphate Mobilization in Mouse Hypothalamus. [PDF]
Previous studies have shown that the sphingolipid-derived mediator sphingosine-1-phosphate (S1P) reduces food intake by activating G protein-coupled S1P receptor-1 (S1PR1) in the hypothalamus.
