Adipocyte Myoglobin Is a Determinant of Energy Expenditure and a Potential Target to Limit Obesity

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
Myoglobin, known as a muscle oxygen‐carrying protein, is shown to play a key role in fat cells that burn energy. Loss of myoglobin reduces the body's ability to generate heat and increases obesity risk, while restoring it improves metabolism. The study identifies myoglobin as a regulator of fat burning and a potential target to enhance energy ...

Hypothalamic Control of Liver Health and Disease: From Circuits to Pathophysiology and Therapies

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
This review delineates the hypothalamic circuits that control liver homeostasis via autonomic and neuroendocrine pathways. Dysregulation of this hypothalamus–liver axis drives disease progression across a spectrum including steatotic liver disease, liver inflammation and injury, fibrosis, cirrhosis, and hepatocellular carcinoma.

Pediatric growth hormone deficiency: Understanding the patient and caregiver perspectives

open access: yesGrowth Hormone & IGF Research
Childhood growth hormone deficiency (GHD) is a rare disorder associated with significant burden on both patients and caregivers. Although previous reports have detailed aspects of the burden experienced by patients and their caregivers, there is a paucity of first-hand information on the patient and caregiver journeys from their respective voices.

35 Individuals With HUWE1‐Related Neurodevelopmental Disorder and Suggested Clinical Evaluations

open access: yesAmerican Journal of Medical Genetics Part A, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT HUWE1 (HECT, UBA, and WWE Domain Containing E3 Ubiquitin Protein Ligase1, OMIM 300697), located at Xp11.22, encodes a ubiquitin ligase that is highly conserved across species. Genetic variants in HUWE1 described in multiple independent studies cause X‐linked intellectual disability, including in the patients identified by Juberg, Marsidi, and ...
