Structure and Physiological Actions of Ghrelin
Scientifica, 2013 Ghrelin is a gastric peptide hormone, discovered as being the endogenous ligand of growth hormone secretagogue receptor. Ghrelin is a 28 amino acid peptide presenting a unique n-octanoylation modification on its serine in position 3, catalyzed by ghrelin

Ghrelin and ghrelin receptor modulation of psychostimulant action [PDF]
Frontiers in Neuroscience, 2013 Ghrelin (GHR) is an orexigenic gut peptide that modulates multiple homeostatic functions including gastric emptying, anxiety, stress, memory, feeding, and reinforcement. GHR is known to bind and activate growth-hormone secretagogue receptors (termed GHR-Rs).

International Journal of Eating Disorders, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Objective Adolescents with higher weight status (HWS; body mass index > 85th percentile adjusted for age and sex) are at greater risk of eating disorders (ED). This study examined factors associated with HWS adolescents' increased risk and how weight status interacts with other risk factors to influence ED onset. Method Australian adolescents (

Recent Advances in Potential Clinical Application of Ghrelin in Obesity
Journal of Obesity, 2012 Ghrelin is the natural ligand of the growth hormone secretagogue receptor (GHS-R1a). Ghrelin is a 28 amino acid peptide possessing a unique acylation on the serine in position 3 catalyzed by ghrelin O-acyltransferase (GOAT).

PERCC1‐associated enteropathy: Diagnostic challenges and enteral autonomy achieved with teduglutide
JPGN Reports, EarlyView.Abstract Congenital diarrheas and enteropathies (CODE) are rare inherited disorders characterized by early‐onset intractable diarrhea. Though progress has been made in elucidating the genetic basis of CODE, much remains to be discovered. Another challenge is the lack of curative therapies—treatment is primarily supportive including enteral and ...
