The role of ghrelin in anorexia nervosa [PDF]

open access: yes, 2018
Ghrelin, a 28-amino acid peptide hormone expressed in X/A-like endocrine cells of the stomach, is the only known peripherally produced and centrally acting peptide that stimulates food intake and therefore attracted a lot of attention with one major ...

Inhibition of PHF1 promotes ferroptosis via IRES‐dependent Snail translation regulation in pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma

open access: yesVIEW, EarlyView.
PHF1 is a known epigenetic regulator involved in transcriptional silencing in cancer. In this study, we identified PHF1 as an oncogene that promotes PDAC progression and demonstrated that its inhibition induces ferroptosis. Mechanistically, PHF1 physically interacts with the FBL/NOP56/NOP58 snoRNP complex to enhance the IRES‐dependent translation of ...

Glucagon-Like Peptide-1 Modulates Neurally-Evoked Mucosal Chloride Secretion in Guinea Pig Small Intestine In Vitro. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2011
Glucagon-like peptide-1 (GLP-1) acts at the G protein-coupled receptor, GLP-1R, to stimulate secretion of insulin and to inhibit secretion of glucagon and gastric acid. Involvement in mucosal secretory physiology has received negligible attention. We

Is Asthma Remission a New Achievable Goal? A Review of the Current Drug‐Related Evidence and Predictors

open access: yesAllergy, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Advances in asthma therapies have shown that clinical remission may be an achievable therapeutic goal for patients with asthma. This review discusses the current definitions of remission in asthma, the predictors of remission, airway inflammation/epithelial damage in asthma remission, airway remodeling, paradigms in defining remission and ...
