Development of a genetically encoded melanocortin sensor for high sensitivity in vivo imaging

Molecular Metabolism
Objective: The central melanocortin system, composed of peptides derived from pro-opiomelanocortin (POMC) such as the melanocyte-stimulating hormones (α-, β-, γ-MSH) and melanocortin 4 receptors (MC4R), along with the agouti-related protein (AgRP), plays

Biofluid Biomarkers of Cognitive Functioning in Bipolar Disorder: A Systematic Review by the Targeting Cognition and Older‐Age Bipolar Disorder ISBD Task Forces

Bipolar Disorders, Volume 28, Issue 5, August 2026.
ABSTRACT Background Cognitive impairment is common in bipolar disorder (BD), but the underlying pathophysiology remains unclear. This systematic review aimed to (1) summarize all literature describing relationships of biofluid biomarkers and cognition in BD and (2) identify which biofluid biomarkers correlate most consistently with cognition in BD ...

Ribosomal S6 kinase 2-forkhead box protein O4 signaling pathway plays an essential role in melanogenesis

Scientific Reports
Although previous studies have examined the signaling pathway involved in melanogenesis through which ultraviolet (UV) or α-melanocyte-stimulating hormones (α-MSH) stimuli act as key inducers to produce melanin at the stratum basal layer of the epidermis,

Targeting the microbiota‐miRNA‐protease axis: A new therapeutic avenue in melanoma

The FEBS Journal, Volume 293, Issue 13, Page 4043-4063, July 2026.
Modulation of extracellular matrix (ECM) turnover is central to melanoma progression and metastasis, driven largely by ECM proteases. This review highlights the epigenetic regulation of ECM proteases by microRNAs and their roles in melanoma growth, invasion, and immune modulation.

HISTOLOGIC LOCALIZATION OF FOLLICLE-STIMULATING AND LUTEINIZING HORMONES IN THE RAT TESTIS

, 1967
Follicle-stimulating and luteinizing hormones were labeled with fluorescein isothiocyanate, rhodamine B and ferritin. The histologic distribution of labeled hormones, injected intravenously into adult rats, was studied by means of fluorescence ...

Welfare and Physiological Consequences of Non‐Lethal Blood Sampling From the Caudal Vasculature of Atlantic Salmon (Salmo salar L.)

Journal of Fish Diseases, Volume 49, Issue 7, July 2026.
ABSTRACT The objective of this study was to evaluate welfare and health effects following single and repeated non‐lethal blood sampling from the caudal vasculature of Atlantic salmon. Two experiments were conducted at three different temperatures: a 6‐week freshwater experiment with fish weighing 50–100 g, undergoing up to four blood withdrawals, and a

Efficacy and Safety of L‐Carnosine‐Containing Hyaluronate Injection for Facial Skin Hydration and Brightness: A Randomized, Controlled, Evaluator‐Blinded Trial

Journal of Cosmetic Dermatology, Volume 25, Issue 7, July 2026.
ABSTRACT Background L‐carnosine, a dipeptide with superior antioxidant and antiglycation properties, serves as the core active component in this study. We aimed to evaluate the efficacy and safety of a novel injectable composite solution, which features L‐carnosine in combination with non‐crosslinked sodium hyaluronate, glycine, alanine, proline, and ...

THE EFFECT OF TUBEROINFUNDIBULAR DOPAMINERGIC-NEURONS ON PROLACTIN AND ALPHA-MELANOCYTE STIMULATING HORMONE-RELEASE

, 1991
The effect of tubero-infundibular dopaminergic neurons (TIDA) on the release of prolactin (PRL) and alpha-melanocyte stimulating hormone (alpha-MSH) was studied in median eminence-lesioned (MEL) male rats (N = 6-28).
