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

Advanced Science, EarlyView.Hepatocytes are subjected to increased membrane tension along with lipid accumulation. Loss of PIEZO1 exacerbates high‐fat diet‐induced MASLD in mice. Activation of PIEZO1 alleviates high‐fat diet‐induced MASLD in mice. PIEZO1 negatively regulates de novo lipogenesis through activation of CaMKK2‐AMPK pathway. ABSTRACT Liver is a central organ for lipid

Advanced Science, EarlyView.A graphene oxide/collagen scaffold is developed for chronic massive rotator cuff tear repair. The scaffold improves compressive stability, supports reparative mesenchymal differentiation, and modulates the immune microenvironment. In chronic MRCT models, it reduces muscle degeneration, enhances tendon–bone regeneration, and improves functional recovery,

European Eating Disorders Review, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Objective While loss of control (LOC) eating is associated with poor outcomes following metabolic and bariatric surgery (MBS), the mechanisms driving it are less understood. This study used momentary, naturalistic data to examine glucose as a biological correlate of LOC eating after Roux‐en‐Y gastric bypass (RYGB).

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).

Expression of Serum Retinol Binding Protein and Transthyretin within Mouse Gastric Ghrelin Cells. [PDF]
PLoS ONE, 2013 Ghrelin is an orexigenic peptide hormone produced mainly by a distinct group of dispersed endocrine cells located within the gastric oxyntic mucosa. Besides secreted gene products derived from the preproghrelin gene, which include acyl-ghrelin, desacyl ...

When the Scale Drops: Pathways to Weight Loss in Parkinson's Disease and Future Directions
Movement Disorders, EarlyView.Abstract Although Parkinson's disease (PD) is classically defined by its motor features, non‐motor symptoms exert a substantial and often under‐recognized influence on disease trajectory. Among these, weight loss has long been observed in PD and other neurodegenerative disorders, yet the mechanisms remain incompletely understood.
