Effects of a two‐night hospitalization program as a specific health guidance on obesity and cardiovascular disease risk factors

Journal of General and Family Medicine, EarlyView.
Abstract Background To assess the effects of a two‐night hospitalization program conducted at our hospital as part of a domestic health guidance system. This program is designed for lifestyle modification within a health checkup framework for metabolic syndrome. Methods This is a single‐center, retrospective observational study. We reviewed the medical

Estimation of gastric ghrelin-positive cells activity in hyperthyroid rats.

Folia Histochemica et Cytobiologica, 2009
Ghrelin is a peptide of 28 amino acids that transmits appetite related signals from peripheral organs to the brain. The main source of ghrelin is stomach. The regulation of ghrelin secretion is still unknown.

Resveratrol Prevents Weight Gain, Counteracts Visceral Adipose Tissue Dysfunction, and Improves Hypothalamic Leptin Sensitivity in Diet‐Induced Obese Rats

Molecular Nutrition &Food Research, EarlyView.
Resveratrol improves hypothalamic leptin sensitivity and prevents body weight gain in obese animals, while mitigating adipocyte hypertrophy and promoting adipocyte hyperplasia in the retroperitoneal fat depot. ABSTRACT In obesity, increased adipocyte size is associated with metabolic complications, while elevated adipocyte numbers are considered a ...

Physiological barriers to oral intake in survivors of critical illness: A scoping review

Nutrition in Clinical Practice, EarlyView.
Abstract Oral nutrition is the predominant mode of nutrition delivery on the post–Intensive Care Unit (ICU) ward; yet, it is associated with lower intake than via enteral or parenteral nutrition. There are limited data on barriers that influence oral intake in ICU survivors.

Nose‐to‐Brain Delivery of Acyl‐Ghrelin Peptide Gold Nanoconjugates for Treatment of Neurodegenerative Diseases

Small, EarlyView.
Intranasal delivery of acyl‐ghrelin using gold nanorods (AuNRs) is investigated as a strategy for treating neurodegenerative diseases. Acyl‐ghrelin is conjugated to AuNRs under optimized conditions that preserve its bioactivity and prevent nanoparticle cross‐linking.

Ghrelin and oral diseases [PDF]

Central European Journal of Immunology, 2020
Eating food is one of the most complicated behaviours in mammals, especially humans. The primary function of ghrelin is regulation of the appetite level and its stimulation. It is also responsible for the body's energy balance and glucose homeostasis.
