Recent Advancements in the Characterization of D‐Amino Acid and Isoaspartate Post‐Translational Modifications

open access: yesMass Spectrometry Reviews, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT One of the great triumphs of mass spectrometry‐based peptide and protein characterization is the characterization of their modifications as most modifications have a characteristic mass shift. What happens when the modification does not change the mass of the peptide?

Phylogenetic investigation of peptide hormone and growth factor receptors in five dipteran genomes

open access: yesFrontiers in Endocrinology, 2013
Peptide hormones and growth factors bind to membrane receptors and regulate a myriad of processes in insects and other metazoans. The evolutionary relationships among characterized and un-characterized (orphan) receptors can provide insights into ...

Insight into mosquito GnRH-related neuropeptide receptor specificity revealed through analysis of naturally occurring and synthetic analogs of this neuropeptide family [PDF]

open access: yes, 2019
Adipokinetic hormone (AKH), corazonin (CRZ), and the AKH/CRZ-related peptide (ACP) are neuropeptides considered homologous to the vertebrate gonadotropin-releasing hormone (GnRH).

Peptide analogue studies of the hypothalamic neuropeptide Y receptor mediating pituitary adrenocorticotrophic hormone release.

open access: yesProceedings of the National Academy of Sciences of the United States of America, 1997
Hypothalamic neuropeptide Y (NPY) is thought to be important in the regulation of feeding and also in the release of Adrenocorticotrophic hormone (ACTH).

Association between Perceived Dysphagia Symptoms and Swallowing Physiology in Parkinson's Disease

open access: yesMovement Disorders Clinical Practice, EarlyView.
Abstract Background Swallowing disorders are prevalent in Parkinson's disease (PD). Swallowing assessment often relies on patient‐reported outcome measures (PROMs). Although PROMs and physiologic swallowing measures correlate with disease severity, the relationship between PROMs and physiologic swallowing impairments is unclear.

Relationship between the Production Traits and three Candidate Genes in the Prolactin’s In/Del×In/Del Population of Silkie Fowl

open access: yesThe Journal of Poultry Science, 2014
Silkie fowl are very famous in China and Japan, however the egg production rate of the Silkie fowl is very low because of broodiness. Authors have examined the polymorphisms of the 5′-flanking region of the prolactin gene in Taihe Silkie fowl and ...

Protective Effects of Human Milk Oligosaccharides (hMOs) on Analgesic, Nonsteroidal Anti‐inflammatory Drugs (NSAIDs)‐Induced Disruption of Gut Barrier Integrity in Cocultures Mimicking Neuro‐Gut Epithelial Cell Crosstalk

open access: yesMolecular Nutrition &Food Research, EarlyView.
Nerve cells partially mitigate indomethacin‐induced tight junction dysregulation in neuro‐gut epithelial cell cocultures. Human milk oligosaccharides 2′‐ and 3‐fucosyllactose (2′‐FL and 3‐FL) protect the neuro‐gut epithelial barrier from indomethacin‐induced damage. This protection is stronger in cocultures with higher nerve cell densities.

Spinal Neuropeptide Y1 Receptor-Expressing Neurons Form an Essential Excitatory Pathway for Mechanical Itch

open access: yesCell Reports, 2019
Summary: Acute itch can be generated by either chemical or mechanical stimuli, which activate separate pathways in the periphery and spinal cord. While substantial progress has been made in mapping the transmission pathway for chemical itch, the central ...
