Conduction of activity between muscles in the terminal region of the common bile duct and in the neighboring duodenum [PDF]

, 1976
The relationship between muscle activity at the terminal region of the common bile duct and the duodenal muscle was examined in rabbits. The rhythmic muscle activity in the terminal region was synchronous with duodenal muscle activity.

Impact of central antagonist of cholecystokinin-1 receptors GB-115 on cognitive functions in patients with Generalized Anxiety Disorder

European Psychiatry, 2022
Introduction Generalized anxiety disorder (GAD) is associated with reduced attention, inhibition, decrease of processing speed. The impact of a new peptide antagonist of central cholecystokinin-1 receptors (GB-115) on cognitive processes in patients ...

Cholesterol gallstone formation in overweight mice establishes that obesity per se is not linked directly to cholelithiasis risk

Journal of Lipid Research, 2002
The relationship between obesity and cholesterol cholelithiasis is not well understood at physiologic or genetic levels. To clarify whether obesity per se leads to increased prevalence of cholelithiasis, we examined cholesterol gallstone susceptibility ...

Cholecystokinin and the hormone concept

Endocrine Connections, 2021
The birth certificate for endocrinology was Bayliss’ and Starlin g’s demonstration in 1902 that regulation of bodily functions is not only neuronal but al so due to blood-borne messengers. Starling named these messengers hormones.

Utilizing Peptide Ligand GPCRs to Image and Treat Pancreatic Cancer

Biomedicines, 2018
It is estimated that early detection of pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma (PDAC) could increase long-term patient survival by as much as 30% to 40% (Seufferlein, T. et al., Nat. Rev. Gastroenterol. Hepatol. 2016, 13, 74–75).

Neto Auxiliary Subunits Regulate Interneuron Somatodendritic and Presynaptic Kainate Receptors to Control Network Inhibition

Cell Reports, 2017
Although Netos are considered auxiliary subunits critical for kainate receptor (KAR) function, direct evidence for their regulation of native KARs is limited.
