Ghrelin [PDF]

open access: yesMolecular Metabolism, 2015
The gastrointestinal peptide hormone ghrelin was discovered in 1999 as the endogenous ligand of the growth hormone secretagogue receptor. Increasing evidence supports more complicated and nuanced roles for the hormone, which go beyond the regulation of systemic energy metabolism.In this review, we discuss the diverse biological functions of ghrelin ...

From Ghrelin to Ghrelin's O-Acyl Transferase

2012
The hormone ghrelin is a unique signaling peptide with powerful metabolic effects, mediated by its acylated forms. The acyl modification of ghrelin is unique in that it takes place via a susceptible ester linkage in the conserved serine-3 of ghrelin and is composed principally of octanoyl and, to lesser extent, decanoyl fatty acids.

Transgenic Mice Overexpressing Ghrelin or Ghrelin Analog

2012
To understand the chronic effects of ghrelin, genetically engineered mouse models would be useful. Early studies, however, suggested that it was challenging to generate ghrelin gain-of-activity models by standard procedures. Although several groups have been trying to generate transgenic (Tg) mice overexpressing ghrelin, almost all these animals ...
