Genetic determination of the cellular basis of the ghrelin-dependent bone remodeling

open access: yesMolecular Metabolism, 2015
Objective: Bone mass is maintained through a balance of bone formation and resorption. This homeostatic balance is regulated by various systems involving humoral and local factors.

Variations in the ghrelin receptor gene associate with obesity and glucose metabolism in individuals with impaired glucose tolerance. [PDF]

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2008
Ghrelin may influence the development of obesity through its role in the control of energy balance, food intake, and regulation of body weight. The effects of ghrelin are mediated via the growth hormone secretagogue receptor (GHSR).We genotyped 7 single ...

The ghrelinergic system in zebrafish gonads is suppressed during food unavailability

open access: yesAquaculture and Fisheries, 2022
Ghrelin is an appetite stimulatory peptide that regulates reproduction in vertebrates. The acylation of ghrelin by ghrelin-O-acyltransferase (Goat) is essential for most of its functions. The ghrelinergic system (ghrelin, ghrelin receptor [Ghsr] and Goat)

Ghrelin regulates glucose and glutamate transporters in hypothalamic astrocytes [PDF]

open access: yes, 2016
Hypothalamic astrocytes can respond to metabolic signals, such as leptin and insulin, to modulate adjacent neuronal circuits and systemic metabolism. Ghrelin regulates appetite, adiposity and glucose metabolism, but little is known regarding the response

Association Analysis of the Leptin and Ghrelin Receptor Gene Polymorphism in the Human with BMI

open access: yesScientific Papers Animal Science and Biotechnologies, 2023
The aim of this work was identification of Leptin and Ghrelin receptor gene polymorphism in the population. Leptin is a product of obese (ob) gene expression that plays a role in energy metabolism and body weight.

Effects of cholinergic antagonists on ghrelin release and expression in the crop, proventriculus, and duodenum of newly hatched chickens. [PDF]

open access: yesFront Physiol
The aim of this study was to evaluate the effect of the cholinergic receptor antagonists on ghrelin (GHRL) expression and release from parts of the gastrointestinal system in an unique animal model—newly hatched chickens.

Escalation in high fat intake in a binge eating model differentially engages dopamine neurons of the ventral tegmental area and requires ghrelin signaling [PDF]

open access: yes, 2015
Binge eating is a behavior observed in a variety of human eating disorders. Ad libitum fed rodents daily and time-limited exposed to a high-fat diet (HFD) display robust binge eating events that gradually escalate over the initial accesses.

Family and population-based studies of variation within the ghrelin receptor locus in relation to measures of obesity. [PDF]

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2010
The growth hormone secretagogue receptor (GHSR) is mediating hunger sensation when stimulated by its natural ligand ghrelin. In the present study, we tested the hypothesis that common and rare variation in the GHSR locus are related to increased ...

From the stomach to locus coeruleus: new neural substrate for ghrelin’s effects on ingestive, motivated and anxiety-like behaviors

open access: yesFrontiers in Pharmacology, 2023
Ghrelin, a stomach-derived orexigenic hormone, has a well-established role in energy homeostasis, food reward, and emotionality. Noradrenergic neurons of the locus coeruleus (LC) are known to play an important role in arousal, emotion, cognition, but ...
