The urinary albumin‐to‐creatinine ratio can direct personalized prevention and treatment for cardiovascular and chronic kidney disease

open access: yesJournal of Internal Medicine, Volume 299, Issue 4, Page 444-466, April 2026.
Abstract Increased urinary albumin excretion is a strong predictor for cardiovascular events in persons with and without decreased glomerular filtration rate and can be assessed with the urinary albumin‐to‐creatinine ratio (UACR), which is a selective, sensitive, and convenient method for patients.

The Regulation of Leptin, Leptin Receptor and Pro-opiomelanocortin Expression by N-3 PUFAs in Diet-Induced Obese Mice Is Not Related to the Methylation of Their Promoters

open access: yesNutrition & Metabolism, 2011
Background The expression of leptin is increased in obesity and inhibited by n-3 polyunsaturated fatty acids (n-3 PUFAs), but the underlying molecular mechanisms have not been firmly established.

Adipose tissue‐derived small extracellular vesicles and blood–brain barrier function in adults with overweight and obesity

open access: yesExperimental Physiology, Volume 111, Issue 4, Page 1819-1830, 1 April 2026.
Abstract Obesity is associated with adverse changes in brain structure and function, in part, through crosstalk between adipose tissue (AT) and the brain. AT releases small extracellular vesicles (sEV) that can cross the blood–brain barrier (BBB) and modulate multiple pathophysiological pathways, including BBB function; however, this has never been ...

Stimulation of the Hippocampal POMC/MC4R Circuit Alleviates Synaptic Plasticity Impairment in an Alzheimer’s Disease Model

open access: yesCell Reports, 2016
Hippocampal synaptic plasticity is modulated by neuropeptides, the disruption of which might contribute to cognitive deficits observed in Alzheimer’s disease (AD).

Increased alternate splicing of Htr2c in a mouse model for Prader-Willi syndrome leads disruption of 5HT(2C) receptor mediated appetite [PDF]

open access: yes, 2016
Alternate splicing of serotonin (5-hydroxytryptamine; 5-HT) 2C receptor (5-HT2CR) pre-RNA is negatively regulated by the small nucleolar RNA, Snord115, loss of which is observed in nearly all individuals with Prader-Willi Syndrome (PWS), a multigenic ...

Serotonin mediated changes in corticotropin releasing factor mRNA expression and feeding behavior isolated to the hypothalamic paraventricular nuclei [PDF]

open access: yes, 2011
Fenfluramine reduces hunger and promotes body weight loss by increasing central serotonin (5-HT) signaling. More recently, neuropeptides have been linked to the regulation of feeding behavior, metabolism and body weight.

Complete amino acid sequence of mouse pro-opiomelanocortin derived from the nucleotide sequence of pro-opiomelanocortin cDNA.

open access: yesJournal of Biological Chemistry, 1983
Polyadenylated RNA was isolated from a mouse pituitary tumor cell line (AtT-20/D16v) which synthesizes and secretes adrenocorticotropic hormone and beta-endorphin. The RNA was used to construct a cDNA library by a double linker technique and the library was screened for pro-opiomelanocortin (POMC) sequences.

Dysfunctional TRIM31 of POMC Neurons Provokes Hypothalamic Injury and Peripheral Metabolic Disorder under Long‐Term Fine Particulate Matter Exposure

open access: yesAdvanced Science, Volume 13, Issue 14, 9 March 2026.
Particulate matter ≤2.5 µm (PM2.5) elevates risks of neurological and chronic metabolic diseases, but the underlying mechanisms linking PM2.5‐induced central nervous system (CNS) injury to metabolic dysfunction remain unclear. Hypothalamic pro‐opiomelanocortin‐expressing (POMC+) neurons regulate systemic metabolic homeostasis, and tripartite motif ...

CNS Control of Glucose Metabolism: Response to Environmental Challenges [PDF]

open access: yes, 2013
Over the last 15 years, considerable work has accumulated to support the role of the CNS in regulating postprandial glucose levels. As discussed in the first section of this review, the CNS receives and integrates information from afferent neurons ...
