Charge Characteristics of Agouti-Related Protein Implicate Potent Involvement of Heparan Sulfate Proteoglycans in Metabolic Function. [PDF]

, 2019
The endogenous melanocortin peptide agouti-related protein (AgRP) plays a well-known role in foraging, but its contribution to metabolic regulation is less understood.

Role of NeuroD1 on the negative regulation of Pomc expression by glucocorticoid.

PLoS ONE, 2017
The mechanism of the negative regulation of proopiomelanocortin gene (Pomc) by glucocorticoids (Gcs) is still unclear in many points. Here, we demonstrated the involvement of neurogenic differentiation factor 1 (NeuroD1) in the Gc-mediated negative ...

InsR/FoxO1 signaling curtails hypothalamic POMC neuron number. [PDF]

PLoS ONE, 2012
Insulin receptor (InsR) signaling through transcription factor FoxO1 is important in the development of hypothalamic neuron feeding circuits, but knowledge about underlying mechanisms is limited.

The homeodomain transcription factor Six3 regulates hypothalamic Pomc expression and its absence from POMC neurons induces hyperphagia and mild obesity in male mice

Molecular Metabolism
Objective: Proopiomelanocortin (POMC) neurons release potent anorexigenic neuropeptides, which suppress food intake and enhance energy expenditure via melanocortin receptors.

Novel insights into the metabolic action of Kiss1 neurons

Endocrine Connections, 2020
Kiss1 neurons are essential regulators of the hypothalamic–pituitary–gonadal (HPG) axis by regulating gonadotropin-releasing hormone (GnRH) release. Compelling evidence suggests that Kiss1 neurons of the arcuate nucleus (Kiss1ARC), recently identified as

60 YEARS OF POMC: Transcriptional and epigenetic regulation of POMC gene expression [PDF]

Journal of Molecular Endocrinology, 2016
Expression of the pro-opiomelanocortin (POMC) gene integrates numerous inputs that reflect the developmental history of POMC-expressing cells of the pituitary and hypothalamus, as well as their critical role in the endocrine system. These inputs are integrated at specific regulatory sequences within the promoter and pituitary or hypothalamic enhancers ...

Identifying Systemic Lupus Erythematosus From Serum Proteomic Profiles Using Machine Learning and Genetic Risk Stratification

Arthritis &Rheumatology, EarlyView.
Objective Proteome‐wide risk models for lupus remain underexplored. We developed classification models to identify lupus from serum proteomic profiles. Methods Patients with lupus and individuals with other autoimmune diseases in the UK Biobank were included.

Trilogy Development of Proopiomelanocortin Neurons From Embryonic to Adult Stages in the Mice Retina

Frontiers in Cell and Developmental Biology, 2021
Proopiomelanocortin-positive amacrine cells (POMC ACs) were first discovered in adult mouse retinas in 2010; however, the development of POMC-ACs has not been studied.

The role of insulin receptor substrate 2 in hypothalamic and beta cell function [PDF]

, 2005
Insulin receptor substrate 2 (Irs2) plays complex roles in energy homeostasis. We generated mice lacking Irs2 in beta cells and a population of hypothalamic neurons (RIPCreIrs2KO), in all neurons (NesCreIrs2KO), and in proopiomelanocortin neurons ...
