GPSM1 in POMC neurons impairs brown adipose tissue thermogenesis and provokes diet-induced obesity
Objective: G-protein-signaling modulator 1 (GPSM1) has been proved the potential role in brain tissues, however, whether GPSM1 in hypothalamic nuclei, especially in POMC neurons is essential for the proper regulation of whole-body energy balance remains ...

Magel2-null mice have fewer ARC POMC neurons.
A–B) Representative images of GFP (POMC) IHC in A) control and B) Magel2×POMCEGFP mice. Scale bar 100 µm. C) Magel2×POMCEGFP mice have fewer GFP expressing (POMC) cells at all levels of the ARC (Bregma −1.28, 39% reduction ...

Expressions of HDAC4, −5, AcH3, and AcH4s in POMC neurons in the ARH.
A, B, C) HDAC4-positive nuclei were found in POMC-positive cells (arrow in B) and POMC-negative cells (arrowhead in B) in the ARH of a high-fat fed mouse.

The last‐step integrator thesis: Heterarchical control of the mammalian gastrointestinal tract
Abstract figure legend Heterarchy of control of the gastrointestinal tract. The production mechanisms (i.e. epithelial cells and muscles) are shown at the bottom in green. Above them are some of the many mechanisms that provide control inputs to these production mechanisms.

Early-Life Stress Reduces DNA Methylation of the Pomc Gene in Male Mice
Early-life stress (ELS) increases the vulnerability thresholds for stress-related diseases such as major depression and anxiety by inducing alterations in the structure and function of neural circuits and endocrine pathways.

Differential expression of POMC-processing genes in corticotroph tumors
Objective: Corticotroph tumors (CTs) derive from the TBX19 lineage and are functioning (FCTs) or nonfunctioning (NFCTs). In FCTs, the main pathogenic variants are found in USP8, enhancing proopiomelanocortin (POMC) transcription through epidermal growth ...

The small GTPase Rap1 in POMC neurons regulates leptin actions and glucose metabolism
The hypothalamic leptin-proopiomelanocortin (POMC) pathway is critical for regulating metabolism. POMC neurons in the arcuate nucleus respond to leptin and play a pivotal role in mediating energy and glucose balance. However, during diet-induced obesity (

Autophagic cell death participates in POMC-induced melanoma suppression
Hypoxia in tumors is known to trigger the pro-survival pathways such as autophagy. Systemic proopiomelanocortin (POMC) gene therapy suppresses melanoma through apoptosis induction and neovascularization blockage.

In our previous studies, we have purified a unique, paired basic residue‐specific, prohormone‐converting enzyme from pituitary intermediate lobe secretory vesicles. This enzyme, an aspartyl protease, was shown to cleave the intermediate lobe prohormone, pro‐opiomelanocortin (POMC), to adrenocorticotropin, β‐endorphin and a 16 kDa NH2‐terminal ...
