Intestinal Gastrin/CCKBR Axis Protects against Type 2 Diabetes by Reducing Intestinal Glucose Absorption through the PI3K/Akt/eIF4B Signaling Pathway [PDF]
The Gastrin/CCKBR axis is essential for inhibiting intestinal sodium absorption, but its effects on intestinal glucose metabolism remain elusive. This study aims to determine the role of intestinal Gastrin/CCKBR on glucose absorption in the development ...

Discovery of a β-arrestin-biased CCKBR agonist that blocks CCKBR-dependent long-term potentiation [PDF]
The CCKBR agonists induce neocortical long-term potentiation of excitatory synaptic transmission and enhance memory formation, while its antagonists weaken the potentiation in the amygdala and alleviate depression-like behaviors.

Low expression of CCKBR in the acinar cells is associated with insufficient starch hydrolysis in ruminants [PDF]
Unlike monogastric animals, ruminants exhibit significantly lower starch digestibility in the small intestine. A better understanding of the physiological mechanisms that regulate digestion patterns in ruminants could lead to an increased use of starch ...

Kidney Gastrin/CCKBR Attenuates Type 2 Diabetes Mellitus by Inhibiting SGLT2-Mediated Glucose Reabsorption through Erk/NF-κB Signaling Pathway. [PDF]
Background Both sodium-glucose cotransporters (SGLTs) and Na+/H+ exchangers (NHEs) rely on a favorable Na-electrochemical gradient. Gastrin, through the cholecystokinin B receptor (CCKBR), can induce natriuresis and diuresis by inhibiting renal NHEs ...

Functional Synergy between Cholecystokinin Receptors CCKAR and CCKBR in Mammalian Brain Development [PDF]
Cholecystokinin (CCK), a peptide hormone and one of the most abundant neuropeptides in vertebrate brain, mediates its actions via two G-protein coupled receptors, CCKAR and CCKBR, respectively active in peripheral organs and the central nervous system ...

Cholecystokinin modulates age-dependent thalamocortical neuroplasticity. [PDF]
The thalamocortical pathways exhibit neuroplasticity not only during the critical period but also in adulthood. In this study, we investigated how cholecystokinin (CCK) modulates age-dependent thalamocortical plasticity.

Evolution of the Jawed Vertebrate (Gnathostomata) Stomach Through Gene Repertoire Loss: Findings from Agastric Species. [PDF]
The stomach has been a highly conserved organ throughout vertebrate evolution; however, there are now over 20 lineages composed of monotremes, lungfish and teleost fish displaying a secondary loss of stomach function and morphology.

Identification of gastric cancer biomarkers through in-silico analysis of microarray based datasets. [PDF]
Gastric cancer is among the most prevalent cancers worldwide including in Pakistan. Late diagnosis of gastric cancer leads to reduced survival. The present study aimed to investigate biomarkers for early diagnosis and prognosis of gastric cancer.

Cholecystokinin B receptor agonists alleviates anterograde amnesia in cholecystokinin-deficient and aged Alzheimer's disease mice. [PDF]
Background As one major symptom of Alzheimer’s disease (AD), anterograde amnesia describes patients with an inability in new memory formation. The crucial role of the entorhinal cortex in forming new memories has been well established, and the ...
