Parasympathetic non-adrenergic, non-cholinergic transmission in rat parotid glands: effects of cholecystokinin-A and -B receptor antagonists on the secretory response [PDF]

, 2008
Recent studies show i.v. administered pentagastrin and cholecystokinin to evoke protein/amylase secretion from the rat parotid gland and to stimulate gland protein synthesis, the two phenomena being abolished by cholecystokinin receptor antagonists.

Strategies for inducing diabetes in laboratory animals: Advances from chemical, surgical, immunologic, dietary, and genetic approaches

Animal Models and Experimental Medicine, EarlyView.
This review summarizes the principal experimental approaches used to induce diabetes in animal models. Strategies include chemical agents (streptozotocin, alloxan, dithizone, gold thioglucose), dietary interventions (high‐fat and high‐sugar diets), surgical methods (total or partial pancreatectomy), genetic models (db/db, ob/ob, Goto‐Kakizaki [GK ...

Photoaffinity labeling of the human brain cholecystokinin receptor overexpressed in insect cells. Solubilization, deglycosylation and purification [PDF]

, 1996
The human cholecystokinin B (CCKB) receptor was expressed in Sf9 cells by infection with recombinant baculovirus. For immunodetection a c-myc epitope tag (EQKLISEEDL) was fused at the amino-terminus of the CCKB receptor.

Evidence for an involvement of the brain cholecystokinin B receptor in anxiety. [PDF]

Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences, 1991
The effect of neuropeptide cholecystokinin (CCK) receptor agonists and antagonists was examined in the rat elevated X-maze model of anxiety. The selective CCK-B receptor antagonists CI-988 (PD 134308) and L-365,260 produced anxiolytic-like effects, whereas MK-329, a CCK-A receptor antagonist, was respectively less potent by factors of 313 and 200.

Gut Health in Ostriches (Struthio camelus): Insights Into Intestinal Structure, Functions, Microbiome, and Improvement Strategies

Animal Research and One Health, EarlyView.
Our paper systematically reviews the intestinal structure, function, and microbiota of ostriches, along with strategies for improving their gut health. We analyze how these factors collectively influence intestinal homeostasis and ostrich welfare, emphasizing probiotics as a promising intervention to enhance gut health, boost population well‐being, and

Role of Spinal Cholecystokinin Octapeptide, Nociceptin/Orphanin FQ, and Hemokinin-1 in Diabetic Allodynia

Biomedicines
A complication of diabetes is neuropathic pain, which is difficult to control with medication. We have confirmed that neuropathic pain due to mechanical allodynia in diabetic mice is mediated by a characteristic neuropeptide in the spinal cord.

MiR-148a Functions as a Tumor Suppressor by Targeting CCK-BR via Inactivating STAT3 and Akt in Human Gastric Cancer. [PDF]

PLoS ONE, 2016
MicroRNAs (miRNAs) have been widely accepted as a class of gene expression regulators which post-translationally regulate protein expression. These small noncoding RNAs have been proved closely involved in the modulation of various pathobiological ...

Dietary management and feeding considerations of pediatric aerodigestive and upper gastrointestinal motility disorders: A position paper by the NASPGHAN Neurogastroenterology and Motility Committee

Journal of Pediatric Gastroenterology and Nutrition, EarlyView.
Abstract Objective Pediatric aerodigestive and upper gastrointestinal (UGI) motility disorders are common and may be associated with compromised nutritional status and decreased quality of life. Traditional dietary recommendations for aerodigestive and UGI motility disorders have been rudimentary and largely based upon experience and common sense ...

Cholecystokinin B receptor gene polymorphism (rs2941026) is associated with anxious personality and suicidal thoughts in a longitudinal study [PDF]

, 2022
Objectives: Cholecystokinin is a neuropeptide with a role in the neurobiology of adaptive behaviour that is implicated in anxiety disorders, while the underlying mechanisms currently remain insufficiently explained.

Advantages of low‐glycaemic‐index carbohydrates in regulating glycaemic response of energy bar: A review

Journal of the Science of Food and Agriculture, EarlyView.
Abstract Energy bars are widely consumed functional foods among athletes and physically active consumers who require convenient sources of sustained energy. Their carbohydrate composition, particularly the type and ratio of digestible sugars such as glucose, fructose and sucrose, strongly influences glycaemic index (GI), postprandial blood glucose ...
