Mutations in the ghrelin receptor gene GHSR in congenital hypopituitarism [PDF]

open access: yesProblems of Endocrinology, 2017
The results of molecular genetic studies indicate the potential involvement of ghrelin in the pathogenesis of some dwarfism forms. However, in the case of isolated somatotropin insufficiency, mutations in the ghrelin receptor gene are a rare cause of the disease.

Endogenous production of ghrelin and beneficial effects of its exogenous administration in monocrotaline-induced pulmonary hypertension [PDF]

open access: yes, 2004
We investigated the endogenous production of ghrelin as well as cardiac and pulmonary vascular effects of its administration in a rat model of monocrotaline (MCT)-induced pulmonary hypertension (PH).

Genomewide meta-analysis identifies loci associated with IGF-I and IGFBP-3 levels with impact on age-related traits [PDF]

open access: yes, 2016
The growth hormone/insulin-like growth factor (IGF) axis can be manipulated in animal models to promote longevity, and IGF-related proteins including IGF-I and IGF-binding protein-3 (IGFBP-3) have also been implicated in risk of human diseases including ...

Nucleotide polymorphisms of the bovine growth hormone secretagogue receptor 1a (GHSR1a) gene and their association with growth and carcass traits in Japanese Black cattle [PDF]

open access: yes, 2010
Ghrelin growth hormone secretagogue receptor 1a (GHSR1a) is involved in many important functions, including growth hormone secretion and food intake (Howard et al. 1996).

Allosteric modulation of ghrelin receptor signaling by lipids

open access: yesNature Communications, 2021
The membrane is an integral component of the G protein-coupled receptor signaling machinery. Here authors demonstrate that lipids regulate the signaling efficacy and selectivity of the ghrelin receptor GHSR through specific interactions and bulk effects ...

Ghrelin Increases Beta-Catenin Level through Protein Kinase A Activation and Regulates OPG Expression in Rat Primary Osteoblasts. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2015
Ghrelin, by binding growth hormone secretagogue receptor (GHS-R), promotes osteoblast proliferation but the signaling mechanism of GHS-R on these cells remains unclear. Since canonical Wnt/β-catenin pathway is critically associated with bone homeostasis,

A Sleep‐Specific Midbrain Target for Sevoflurane Anesthesia

open access: yesAdvanced Science, 2023
Sevoflurane has been the most widely used inhaled anesthetics with a favorable recovery profile; however, the precise mechanisms underlying its anesthetic action are still not completely understood.

Catestatin and GABAAR related feeding habits rely on dopamine, ghrelin plus leptin neuroreceptor expression variations [PDF]

open access: yes, 2016
Catestatin (CST), an endogenously small sympathoinhibitory peptide is capable of interfering with the major cerebral neuroreceptor-blocking site, i.e. γ-aminobutyric acidA receptor (GABAAR) system especially in limbic brain areas that are involved with ...

Neuronal ablation of GHSR mitigates diet-induced depression and memory impairment via AMPK-autophagy signaling-mediated inflammation

open access: yesFrontiers in Immunology
Obesity is associated with chronic inflammation in the central nervous system (CNS), and neuroinflammation has been shown to have detrimental effects on mood and cognition.

Immunohistochemical and hybridocytochemical study on ghrelin signalling in the rat seminiferous epithelium.

open access: yesFolia Histochemica et Cytobiologica, 2010
The results of presented study demonstrate expression of ghrelin, its functional receptor GHSR-1a and their genes in spermatogenic cells of rat testis suggesting their functioning within seminiferous epithelium.
