Premises for Cholecystokinin and Gastrin Peptides in Diabetes Therapy
Gastrin and cholecystokinin (CCK) are classical gastrointestinal peptide hormones. Their biogenesis, structures, and intestinal secretory patterns are well-known with the striking feature that their receptor-bound ‘active sites’ are highly homologous and

Harnessing synthetic key receptor modulators, this study presents a breakthrough in Wnt/β‐catenin regulation. The FZD agonist RRP‐pbFn bypasses LRP5/6 to drive organoid expansion and tissue regeneration, while the LRP antagonist RRP‐Dkk1c eradicates tumors. These tools enable precise pathway control, advancing regenerative and cancer therapies.

Circulating gastrin is increased in hemochromatosis [PDF]
Gastric acid production is important in intestinal iron absorption. The peptide hormone gastrin exists in both amidated and non-amidated forms, which stimulate and potentiate gastric acid secretion, respectively.

Correlation between serum gastrin and cellular proliferation in Barrett’s esophagus
Background: Patients with Barrett’s esophagus (BE) are commonly treated with proton-pump inhibitors (PPIs) to minimize the exposure of esophageal mucosa to stomach acid.

This study aimed to develop and characterize an in vitro human PNEC model and investigated the neuroendocrine response to HDM extract. Exposure to HDM leads to dose‐dependent induction of the CGRP encoding gene, CALCB, and corresponding release of the neuropeptide.

Predictors of Mortality in Patients With Multiple Endocrine Neoplasia Type 1
SUMMARY Objective Multiple Endocrine Neoplasia Type 1 (MEN 1) is an autosomal dominant disease predisposing to hyperplasia and neoplasia in diverse endocrine tissues. Patients typically present with endocrine abnormalities before the age of 30 years and have reduced life expectancy.

Objectives Lymph node metastasis (LNM) is crucial in determining treatment strategies for gastric neuroendocrine tumors (gNETs). While type 3 is considered more aggressive than types 1 and 2 within the clinical subtype of gNETs, the supporting data were insufficient, due to their rarity. We aimed to study the prevalence and risk factors associated with

Gastrin inhibits gastric cancer progression through activating the ERK-P65-miR23a/27a/24 axis
Background To test the hypothesis that activated extracellular signal-regulated kinase (ERK) regulates P65-miR23a/27a/24 axis in gastric cancer (GC) and the ERK-P65-miR23a/27a/24 axis plays an important role in the development of GC, and to evaluate the ...
