Realizing the reported misuse of human growth hormone (GH), investigation of a safe alternative mechanism for increasing endogenous GH is needed. Several GH secretagogues are available, including GH-releasing peptides (GHRPs) GHRP-2 and GHRP-6, and the ...

Stinging nettle (Urtica dioica L.) leaves are a nutrient‐dense source of proteins, dietary fiber, chlorophylls, carotenoids, and phenolic compounds. Processing technologies enable the production of powders and extracts for incorporation into bakery, beverage, dairy, and nutraceutical products; however, challenges remain regarding sensory quality ...

Effects of growth hormone and its secretagogues on bone
The growth hormone (GH)/insulin-like growth factor-1 axis is not only of importance for linear body growth during childhood, but it is also one of the major determinants of adult bone mass. Studies show that GH treatment increases bone mass in rodents as

The Enteric Nervous System: An Integrative Hub From Development to Systemic Physiology
Unlike a static hardwired circuit, the ENS continuously remodels its transcriptional programs and synaptic connectivity in response to three ecological forces: microbial metabolites, immune cell signals and enteroendocrine cues. ABSTRACT The enteric nervous system (ENS) constitutes the largest and most functionally autonomous subdivision of the ...

Enteroendocrine L cells function as chemosensors in the intestine. Using the L‐cell line GLUTag, we show that distinct nutrients trigger different combinations of co‐secretion of GLP‐1 and neurotransmitters: D‐glucose evokes GLP‐1, glutamate, and ATP; L‐glutamine evokes GLP‐1 and glutamate; sucralose and butyrate evoke only GLP‐1.

Pilot Study of a Herbal Formulation Composed of Bidens pilosa for Constipation in Humans
ABSTRACT The gut microbiota and their metabolites are associated with constipation and other gastrointestinal diseases. Dietary phytochemicals are crucial factors shaping gut microbiota. Here, we conducted a first‐in‐human trial of the herbal formulation BP, composed of a Bidens pilosa extract and excipient, in volunteers with constipation.

The hypothalamus-pituitary-adrenal (HPA) axis exerts a variety of effects at both the central and peripheral level. Its activity is mainly regulated by CRH, AVP, and the glucocorticoid-mediated feedback action.

This study found that aging‐related cognitive impairment is accompanied by hippocampal microglial senescence. Ghrelin suppresses microglial senescence by promoting autophagy through the SHBG/JNK1/Beclin1 axis, thereby alleviating aging‐related cognitive impairment. The graphical abstract was drawn using the Figdraw.

Growth hormone (GH)-independent stimulation of adiposity by GH secretagogues
Growth hormone secretagogues (GHSs) stimulate growth hormone (GH) secretion, which is lipolytic. Here we compared the effects of twice daily s.c. treatment of GH and the GHS, ipamorelin, on body fat in GH-deficient (lit/lit) and in GH-intact (+/lit and +/

Abstract Early‐life exposure to metabolic hormones may influence the development of taste acceptance and subsequent intake of hyperpalatable foods (HPF) in infants, but evidence integrating hormonal, behavioral, and dietary data in humans is limited.
