Metabolic and appetitive regulation of adipocyte mass during treatment of obesity

Journal of Internal Medicine, Volume 299, Issue 1, Page 66-78, January 2026.
Abstract Adipose mass is homeostatically maintained within a narrow range despite fluctuations in daily calorie intake and activity levels. Constituting an adipose mass “set point,” this homeostatic regulation includes sensing mechanisms in the form of hormones reflecting caloric intake that serve as mediators of appetitive behaviors and adipose mass ...

Pigments, Chromatophore Structure, and Gene Expression Underlying Colour Polytypy of a Panamanian Poison Frog

Molecular Ecology, Volume 35, Issue 1, January 2026.
ABSTRACT Colour polytypism represents an example of phenotypic diversification shaped by genetic divergence and ecological pressures. Poison frogs of the genus Oophaga (Dendrobatidae) are highly polytypic in coloration, making them an ideal system for investigating the genetic and physiological basis of colour variation.

Significance of the Melanocortin 1 and Endothelin B Receptors in Melanocyte Homeostasis and Prevention of Sun-Induced Genotoxicity

Frontiers in Genetics, 2016
The membrane bound melanocortin 1 receptor (MC1R), and the endothelin B receptor (ENDBR) are two G-protein coupled receptors that play important roles in constitutive regulation of melanocytes and their response to ultraviolet radiation (UVR), the main ...

Cutaneous Malignant Melanoma Incidences Analyzed Worldwide by Skin Type over Advancing Age of Males and Females: Evidence Estrogen and Androgenic Hair are Risk Factors [PDF]

, 2017
We previously analyzed cutaneous malignant melanoma (CMM) incidences worldwide by sex, age, and Fitzpatrick skin type over time (1955-2007) and found only European-ancestry populations have exponential increasing incidences and about a 2-log increase in ...

Association Between Physical Activity and Indicators of Overweight/Obesity and Metabolically Unhealthy Obesity Risk in Children and Adolescents: A Systematic Review of Prospective Epidemiological Studies and Randomized Controlled Trials in Western Countries

Obesity Reviews, Volume 27, Issue 1, Page 1-28, January 2026.
ABSTRACT This systematic review examined the etiologic association between physical activity (PA) and indicators of childhood overweight/obesity (OV/OB) and metabolically unhealthy obesity (MUO) risk. Original peer‐reviewed English reports published between January 01, 2013, and June 30, 2024, were retrieved from MEDLINE and Scopus.

A Randomized Controlled Trial of the Genistein Plus Bakuchiol and Vitamins (GEN+) Product for Male Facial Skin: Effects on Skin Appearance and Properties

Skin Research and Technology, Volume 32, Issue 1, January 2026.
ABSTRACT Background With increasing life expectancy, the aging population, particularly in Asia, is expanding rapidly. Combined with intense year‐round ultraviolet exposure, this accelerates skin aging. Male skin also exhibits distinct aging characteristics.

Dual melanocortin‐4 receptor and GLP‐1 receptor agonism amplifies metabolic benefits in diet‐induced obese mice

EMBO Molecular Medicine, 2015
We assessed the efficacy of simultaneous agonism at the glucagon‐like peptide‐1 receptor (GLP‐1R) and the melanocortin‐4 receptor (MC4R) for the treatment of obesity and diabetes in rodents.
