Lipase inhibition attenuates the acute inhibitory effects of oral fat on food intake in healthy subjects [PDF]
The lipase inhibitor, orlistat, is used in the treatment of obesity and reduces fat absorption by about 30%. However, the mean weight loss induced by orlistat is less than expected for the degree of fat malabsorption.

Direct identification of the agonist binding site in the human brain cholecystokinin-B receptor [PDF]
In investigating the agonist binding site of the human brain cholecystokinin(B) receptor (CCK(B)R), we employed the direct protein chemical approach using a photoreactive tritiated analogue of sulfated cholecystokinin octapeptide, which contains the p ...

No association or linkage between polymorphisms in the genes encoding cholecystokinin and the cholecystokinin B receptor and panic disorder [PDF]
Growing animal data implicate cholecystokinin in the regulation of anxiety, while human clinical research confirms the role of cholecystokinin in the provocation of panic attacks. Antipanic medications suppress the ability of cholecystokinin to induce panic attacks, and may alter the expression of the cholecystokinin gene.

Synthesis and SAR of New 5-Phenyl-3-ureido-1,5-benzodiazepines as Cholecystokinin-B Receptor Antagonists [PDF]
A series of 5-phenyl-3-ureidobenzodiazepine-2,4-diones was synthesized and evaluated as cholecystokinin-B (CCK-B) receptor antagonists. Structure−activity relationship (SAR) studies revealed the importance of the N-1 substituent for potent and selective ...

Activation of multiple receptors stimulates extracellular vesicle release from trophoblast cells
Reports of the stimulated release of extracellular vesicles (EVs) are few, and the mechanisms incompletely understood. To our knowledge, the possibility that the activation of any one of the multitudes of G‐protein‐coupled receptors (GPCRs) expressed by ...
