Dynamics of Apolipoprotein J Levels and Metabolic Parameters Following Bariatric Surgery
ABSTRACT Objective Bariatric surgery has emerged as a potent intervention for ameliorating insulin resistance and its associated comorbidities in obese patients. Apolipoprotein J (ApoJ) and adiponectin are closely associated with insulin resistance and sensitivity, respectively.

Sensing of fatty acids for octanoylation of ghrelin involves a gustatory G-protein. [PDF]
BackgroundGhrelin is an important regulator of energy--and glucose homeostasis. The octanoylation at Ser(3) is essential for ghrelin's biological effects but the mechanisms involved in the octanoylation are unknown.

Summary Background Bariatric surgery is very effective in long‐term weight management. The present study was undertaken to investigate the short‐term effects of sleeve gastrectomy (SG) and of Roux‐en‐Y gastric bypass (RYGB) on (a) gastrointestinal (GI) motility, that is gastric emptying and oro‐cecal transit time and (b) secretion of regulatory gut ...

Liver-expressed antimicrobial peptide 2 elevation contributes to age-associated cognitive decline
Elderly individuals frequently report cognitive decline, while various studies indicate hippocampal functional declines with advancing age. Hippocampal function is influenced by ghrelin through hippocampus-expressed growth hormone secretagogue receptor ...

Summary Chronic stress, characterized by increased long‐term exposure to the glucocorticoid hormone cortisol, is increasingly linked to obesity development. Still, various knowledge gaps persist, including on underlying pathophysiological mechanisms. The aim of the current review is to provide the latest insights on the connection between stress and ...

Neuropeptide receptors as potential antiepileptic drug targets : focus on the ghrelin axis [PDF]
Epilepsy is a very serious neurological disorder which is often underrepresented. Around 50 million individuals worldwide have active epilepsy with recurrent seizures and in spite of the medical advances over the years, 30% of these patients remain as ...

Abstract Aims Precision nutrition, guided by genetic testing, has emerged as a promising approach for managing obesity. However, robust clinical trials testing its effectiveness in real‐world dietary interventions remain scarce. The GenOn Programme aims to evaluate whether tailoring nutritional care based on genetic risk for obesity enhances weight ...

Expression of Ghrelin and Its Receptor mRNA in Bovine Oocyte and Cumulus Cells [PDF]
Energy balance is regulated by ghrelin which is a neuroendocrine modulator. Ghrelin is expressed in repro- ductive organs. However, the role of ghrelin during in vitro maturation (IVM) and bovine preimplantational development is limited. The purpose of
