Expanding the genotypic spectrum of PCSK1 deficiency: A novel mutation in severe neonatal diarrhea

open access: yesJPGN Reports, Volume 7, Issue 2, Page 242-246, May 2026.
Abstract Among congenital diarrhea and enteropathies (CODEs), proprotein convertase subtilisin/kexin type 1 (PCSK1) deficiency is a rare monogenic disorder, associated with severe neonatal diarrhea and polyendocrinopathies. We report an 18‐day‐old male neonate, born to consanguineous parents, presenting with persistent watery diarrhea, metabolic ...

Sirt6 in pro-opiomelanocortin neurons controls energy metabolism by modulating leptin signaling

open access: yesMolecular Metabolism, 2020
Objective: Sirt6 is an essential regulator of energy metabolism in multiple peripheral tissues. However, the direct role of Sirt6 in the hypothalamus, specifically pro-opiomelanocortin (POMC) neurons, controlling energy balance has not been established ...

Detection of chromosome aberrations in the human interphase nucleus by visualization of specific target DNAs with radioactive and non-radioactive in situ hybridization techniques: diagnosis of trisomy 18 with probe L1.84 [PDF]

open access: yes, 1986
The localization of chromosome 18 in human interphase nuclei is demonstrated by use of radioactive and nonradioactive in situ hybridization techniques with a DNA clone designated L1.84.

Melanocortin 3 Receptors Do Not Specifically Localize to Primary Cilia in Cultured Human and Rodent Neurons

open access: yesCell Biochemistry and Function, Volume 44, Issue 4, April 2026.
ABSTRACT The melanocortin‐3 receptor (MC3R) and the melanocortin‐4 receptor (MC4R), both expressed in hypothalamic nuclei, are key downstream effectors of leptin signaling and play important roles in energy homeostasis. While pathogenic variants in the MC4R gene represent the most common cause of monogenic obesity, the clinical significance of MC3R ...

Joint TOS/OMA/OAC Expert Guidance Statement on the Pharmacological Management of United States Adults With Overweight or Obesity Using the GRADE Approach

open access: yesObesity, Volume 34, Issue 4, Page 851-870, April 2026.
Guidance recommendations by TOS/OMA/OAC for the use of obesity medications to treat obesity and its complications. ABSTRACT Background Obesity affects over 40% of US adults, with severe obesity on the rise. Despite recognition of obesity as a chronic disease, it remains underdiagnosed and undertreated.

Estradiol Protects Proopiomelanocortin Neurons Against Insulin Resistance [PDF]

open access: yesEndocrinology, 2017
Insulin resistance is at the core of the metabolic syndrome, and men exhibit a higher incidence of metabolic syndrome than women in early adult life, but this sex advantage diminishes sharply when women reach the postmenopausal state. Because 17β-estradiol (E2) augments the excitability of the anorexigenic proopiomelanocortin (POMC) neurons, we ...

Neuroendocrine Regulation of Metabolism [PDF]

open access: yes, 2016
Given the current environment in most developed countries, it is a challenge to maintain a good balance between calories consumed and calories burned, although maintenance of metabolic balance is key to good health. Therefore, understanding how metabolic

Epigenetic mechanisms and therapeutic innovations in chronic pain‐associated neuropsychiatric co‐morbidities

open access: yesBritish Journal of Pharmacology, Volume 183, Issue 7, Page 1313-1340, April 2026.
Abstract Chronic pain, marked by nociceptive sensitization and maladaptive neuroplasticity, affects 30% of the global population with escalating socioeconomic burdens. Epidemiological data show a 2‐3‐fold increase in neuropsychiatric co‐morbidities among individuals with chronic pain, where epigenetic dysregulation serves as a key mechanism linking ...

Hormone receptor regulated proopiomelanocortin gene expression

open access: yesBiochemical Pharmacology, 1987
The activity of the POMC gene is regulated by both stimulatory and inhibitory hormones. Presumably, some balance exists in the influence of these hormones in order to maintain a steady-state level of activity of this gene. Physiological insults, such as stress, may upset this balance and change the rate of production of POMC and its biologically active
