One-month of high-intensity exercise did not change the food intake and the hypothalamic arcuate nucleus proopiomelanocortin and neuropeptide Y expression levels in male Wistar rats

open access: yesEndocrine Regulations, 2019
Objective. The hypothalamic arcuate nucleus proopiomelanocortin (POMC) and neuropeptide Y (NPY) circuitries are involved in the inhibition and stimulation of the appetite, respectively.

Comparative Proteomics of Salinity Stress Responses in Fish and Aquatic Invertebrates

open access: yesPROTEOMICS, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Fluctuating salinity is symptomatic of climate change challenging aquatic species. The melting of polar ice, rising sea levels, coastal surface and groundwater salinization, and increased evaporation in arid habitats alter salinity worldwide. Moreover, the frequency and intensity of extreme weather events such as rainstorms and floods increase,

Proteolytic stabilization of a spider venom peptide results in an orally active bioinsecticide

open access: yesPest Management Science, EarlyView.
Selective editing out of an insect gut protease cleavage site renders a spider‐derived insecticidal peptide active by ingestion by insect pests. Abstract BACKGROUND The toxin peptide U1‐AGTX‐Ta1b from the Hobo spider, Eratigena agrestis (Walckenaer, 1802), was studied to determine its potential to serve as a bioinsecticide.

Cross‐Linking Mass Spectrometry of the Antimicrobial Peptides Magainin 2 and PGLa Reveals Heterodimerization in Micellar Medium

open access: yesRapid Communications in Mass Spectrometry, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Rationale In this study, we applied cross‐linking mass spectrometry (XL‐MS) to characterize the oligomeric states of a PGLa/magainin 2 mixture and gain insight into the heterodimerization previously suggested in the literature. Both peptides have shown a synergistic enhancement of activity when tested in antimicrobial assays; however, the ...

A Smart Functional Microneedle, Tethered with Neuropeptide S and Tissue Inhibitor of Metalloproteinases, Promotes Skin, Vascular, and Nerve Regeneration for Chronic Diabetic Skin Wound Healing

open access: yesSmall Structures, EarlyView.
A smart functional microneedle system, tethered with NPS and TIMP, which not only promotes diabetic wound healing and tissue remodeling at the injury site but also demonstrates the ability to dynamically and responsively release NPS and TIMP as needed, offering a potential therapeutic approach for clinical translation is presented. Increased expression

Acquired narcolepsy secondary to a presumptive hypothalamic hamartoma in a young German wirehaired pointer dog

open access: yesVeterinary Record Case Reports, EarlyView.
Abstract A 3‐year‐old, male, entire, German wirehaired pointer dog was presented with a 2‐year history of paroxysmal episodes of collapse associated with reduced levels of consciousness. A magnetic resonance imaging study identified a single, ill‐defined, non‐contrast‐enhancing, intra‐axial mass lesion involving the hypothalamus.
