Ghrelin accelerates synapse formation and activity development in cultured cortical networks [PDF]

, 2014
Background: While ghrelin was initially related to appetite stimulation and growth hormone secretion, it also has a neuroprotective effect in neurodegenerative diseases and regulates cognitive function. The cellular basis of those processes is related to

Attribution of ghrelin to cancer; Attempts to unravel an apparent controversy [PDF]

, 2019
Ghrelin is an endogenous peptide hormone mainly produced in the stomach. It has been known to regulate energy homeostasis, stimulate secretion of growth hormone, and mediate many other physiologic effects. Various effects attributed to ghrelin contribute

Uncovering the Genetic Landscape of Spinal Dysraphism: A Retrospective Analysis of 150 Fetal Cases

Prenatal Diagnosis, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Objective Spinal dysraphism (SD) results from incomplete neural tube closure and encompasses a heterogeneous group of congenital anomalies with genetic and environmental etiologies. Although genetic contributions are recognized, causative variants remain insufficiently defined, and the clinical implications of extended genetic testing on ...

Advances in the genetics of refractive errors: Contributions from the CREAM consortium

Acta Ophthalmologica, EarlyView.
Abstract The Consortium for Refractive Error and Myopia (CREAM) was established in 2011, bringing together an international team of researchers studying more than 30 cohorts. Since its establishment, CREAM has played a pivotal role in research investigating the genetics of myopia and other refractive errors, serving as a key driver of progress in the ...

Targeted Next‐Generation Sequencing of the Leptin‐Melanocortin Pathway in Severe Obesity

Obesity, Volume 34, Issue 2, Page 499-511, February 2026.
ABSTRACT Objective Pathogenic variants in five established leptin‐melanocortin pathway genes (LEP, LEPR, MC4R, PCSK1, POMC) are associated with severe early‐onset obesity and are targets for emerging treatments. However, these variants are rare in these patients, suggesting the involvement of additional genes interacting with this pathway. Methods Next‐
