Altered ghrelin secretion in mice in response to diet-induced obesity and Roux-en-Y gastric bypass
Molecular Metabolism, 2014 The current study examined potential mechanisms for altered circulating ghrelin levels observed in diet-induced obesity (DIO) and following weight loss resulting from Roux-en-Y gastric bypass (RYGB).

Ablation of ghrelin O-acyltransferase does not improve glucose intolerance or body adiposity in mice on a leptin-deficient ob/ob background. [PDF]
PLoS ONE, 2013 Type 2 Diabetes is a global health burden and based on current estimates will become an even larger problem in the future. Developing new strategies to prevent and treat diabetes is a scientific challenge of high priority. The stomach hormone ghrelin has

Cardioprotective effect of ghrelin in cardiopulmonary bypass involves a reduction in inflammatory response. [PDF]
PLoS ONE, 2013 BACKGROUND: Ghrelin has been reported to protect the cardiovascular system; however, the cardioprotective effect of ghrelin against cardiopulmonary bypass (CPB) induced myocardial injury are unclear. In this study, the protective effect of ghrelin on CPB

Ghrelin: Ghrelin as a Regulatory Peptide in Growth Hormone Secretion [PDF]
Journal of Clinical and Diagnostic Research, 2014 Background: Ghrelin is a type of growth hormone (GH) secretagogue that stimulates the release of GH. It is a first hormone linking gastrointestinal-pituitary axis.

Acylation, a Conductor of Ghrelin Function in Brain Health and Disease
Frontiers in Physiology, 2022 Acyl-ghrelin (AG) is an orexigenic hormone that has a unique octanoyl modification on its third serine residue. It is often referred to as the “hunger hormone” due to its involvement in stimulating food intake and regulating energy homeostasis.
