Polymorphisms of genes coding for ghrelin and its receptor in relation to colorectal cancer risk: a two-step gene-wide case-control study

BMC Gastroenterology, 2010
Background Ghrelin, an endogenous ligand for the growth hormone secretagogue receptor (GHSR), has two major functions: the stimulation of the growth hormone production and the stimulation of food intake.

Plasma LEAP2 concentration is associated with energy intake and postprandial insulin increase depending on meal size but not weight status in men

Diabetes, Obesity and Metabolism, Volume 27, Issue 8, Page 4427-4435, August 2025.
Abstract Aims While LEAP2 is increasingly recognized as an appetite‐regulating hormone, its role in meal regulation and the dynamics of postprandial LEAP2 concentrations remain poorly understood in humans. The aim of the study was to (1) assess postprandial LEAP2 concentrations following a recommended‐energy breakfast, exploring potential association ...

Acetylcholine regulates ghrelin secretion in humans [PDF]

, 2004
Ghrelin secretion has been reportedly increased by fasting and energy restriction but decreased by food intake, glucose, insulin, and somatostatin. However, its regulation is still far from clarified.

The effect of lyophilised oral faecal microbial transplantation on functional outcomes in dogs with diabetes mellitus

Journal of Small Animal Practice, Volume 66, Issue 8, Page 567-581, August 2025.
Objectives We aimed to determine if oral faecal microbiota transplantation improves indices of glycaemic control, changes the faecal dysbiosis indices, alters faecal short‐chain fatty acid and bile acid profiles and increases serum glucagon‐like‐peptide 1 concentrations in diabetic dogs.

Ghrelin contributes to protection of hepatocellular injury induced by ischaemia/reperfusion [PDF]

, 2013
Background & Aims Ghrelin, a gut hormone with pleiotropic effects, may act as a protective signal in parenchymal cells. We investigated the protective effects of ghrelin on hepatocytes after ischaemia/reperfusion (I/R).

Skeletal Muscle Memory: An Update From the Antidoping Perspective

Drug Testing and Analysis, Volume 17, Issue 7, Page 1063-1070, July 2025.
ABSTRACT This narrative review explores the concept of muscle memory, focusing on the physiological and biochemical mechanisms underlying information retention in skeletal muscle tissue as it relates to antidoping. The discussion encompasses the role of satellite cells (SCs) in myonuclei recruitment, resulting in increased myonuclear density and ...

Protective actions of des-acylated ghrelin on brain injury and blood-brain barrier disruption after stroke in mice [PDF]

, 2016
The major ghrelin forms, acylated ghrelin and des-acylated ghrelin, are novel gastrointestinal hormones. Moreover, emerging evidence indicates that these peptides may have other functions including neuro- and vaso-protection.
