Monogenic and syndromic obesity in children: Clinical recognition, genetics, and precision management

open access: yesPediatric Investigation, EarlyView.
Monogenic and syndromic obesity in children often arises from defects in the leptin–melanocortin pathway. Understanding these rare genetic causes not only clarifies mechanisms of appetite regulation but also enables precision therapies, offering hope beyond lifestyle interventions.

Fine‐scale spatial variation in eastern grey squirrel melanism across a complex urban landscape

open access: yesJournal of Animal Ecology, EarlyView.
By sampling 197 parks, the study demonstrates how natural geography creates divergence within cities. The findings reveal that the St. Lawrence River and its tributaries act as barriers, disrupting urban melanism clines in grey squirrels. Ultimately, the research indicates that natural features still dictate evolutionary rules in anthropogenic ...

Gut microbiota as a novel therapeutic target for eating disorders and obesity

open access: yesBritish Journal of Pharmacology, EarlyView.
The graphical abstract highlights the bidirectional interaction between the gut microbiota and central homeostatic and hedonic mechanisms regulating food intake, which contributes to overweight and obesity. It also illustrates emerging microbiota‐based biomarkers and therapeutic strategies (including prebiotics, probiotics, postbiotics, synbiotics and ...

Age‐specific melanoma risk associated with nevi: a pooled analysis from the M‐SKIP project

open access: yesJDDG: Journal der Deutschen Dermatologischen Gesellschaft, EarlyView.
Summary Objective This study investigates the association of melanoma risk with total‐body nevus count and the presence of atypical nevi in younger (< 40 years) and older (> 60 years) individuals. Methods A pooled analysis was conducted within the M‐SKIP project, based on multiple melanoma case‐control studies.

Probing the Role of Melanocortin Type 1 Receptor Agonists in Diverse Immunological Diseases

open access: yesFrontiers in Pharmacology, 2019
Background: The melanocortin α-melanocyte stimulating hormone (α-MSH), an endogenous peptide with high affinity for the melanocortin 1 receptor (MC1r), has demonstrated prevention and reversal of intestinal and ocular inflammation in animal models ...

Early Weight Regain After GLP‐1 Receptor Agonist Discontinuation: Mechanisms and Implications for Treatment De‐Escalation Strategies

open access: yesDiabetes, Obesity and Metabolism, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Glucagon‐like peptide‐1 receptor agonists (GLP‐1RAs) have transformed the pharmacological management of obesity, producing substantial and sustained weight loss during active treatment. However, discontinuation of therapy is frequently followed by significant weight regain, raising important questions regarding the durability of treatment ...

Dolutegravir population pharmacokinetics in racially, sex‐ and age‐diverse and antiretroviral therapy‐experienced adults with HIV in the United States

open access: yesHIV Medicine, EarlyView.
Abstract Objectives Dolutegravir (DTG) has been associated with weight gain in women with HIV, Black people with HIV and people with HIV60 years. This study aimed to characterise DTG population pharmacokinetics (PopPK) in a diverse population including these sub‐populations.

Innovations in Obesity Treatment: Beyond Adipose Tissue Dysfunction

open access: yesObesity Reviews, EarlyView.
Obesity drives chronic inflammation, insulin resistance, type 2 diabetes, and cancer development through adipocyte dysfunction. Addressing this multisystemic disorder requires integrated strategies beyond diet and exercise, such as thermogenesis activation via menthol or capsinoids and appetite control through GLP‐1/GIP agonists and neuromodulation to ...

Established and Emerging Biomarkers to Characterize Persons at Risk for Obesity—Paving the Way for Targeted Clinical Intervention Trials—A Comprehensive Position Paper

open access: yesObesity Reviews, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Despite all efforts, obesity remains a major health concern worldwide, with continuously increasing rates, affecting approx. 14% of the total world population, being as high as 43% in some countries. As obesity is related to numerous comorbidities, including type 2 diabetes, cardiovascular diseases, and some types of cancer, the consequences ...
