Abstract Lipoprotein(a) [Lp(a)] is a genetically determined, causal risk factor for atherosclerotic cardiovascular disease (ASCVD) and calcific aortic valve disease (CAVD). Despite robust evidence from epidemiological and genetic studies, Lp(a) remains underrecognised in clinical practice due to challenges in measurement, lack of guideline familiarity ...

Abstract Aims As compared with C‐peptide, plasma proinsulin levels in individuals with long‐standing type 1 diabetes mellitus are relatively understudied, but may serve as a marker of stressed, yet alive β‐cells. Materials and Methods We measured proinsulin and C‐peptide levels (detection limit <0.15 pmol/L and <0.05 nmol/L, respectively) in a cross ...

Psychoneuroendocrine stress response in female and male youth with major depressive disorder
Background Exposure to psychosocial stress is one of the strongest risk factors for major depressive disorder (MDD) in youth, but underlying neurobiological mechanisms are poorly understood. Previous studies on the neuroendocrine stress response in youth with MDD are scarce, limited to cortisol, and rarely considered sex differences.

Cholecystokinin: Clinical aspects of the new biology
Abstract Cholecystokinin (CCK) is a classic gut hormone that has been known for almost a century to regulate gallbladder emptying, pancreatic enzyme secretion, and gastrointestinal motor activity. In 1968, the CCK structure was identified by Viktor Mutt and Erik Jorpes from porcine gut extracts as a peptide of 33 amino acid residues.
