Cholecystokinin Receptor-Targeted Polyplex Nanoparticle Inhibits Growth and Metastasis of Pancreatic Cancer

open access: yesCellular and Molecular Gastroenterology and Hepatology, 2018
Pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma (PDAC) remains the most aggressive malignancy with the lowest 5-year survival rate of all cancers in part owing to the lack of tumor-specific therapy and the rapid metastatic nature of this cancer.

CRF and urocortin peptides as modulators of energy balance and feeding behavior during stress. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2014
Early on, corticotropin-releasing factor (CRF), a hallmark brain peptide mediating many components of the stress response, was shown to affect food intake inducing a robust anorexigenic response when injected into the rodent brain.

Cholecystokinin receptor type A are involved in the circadian rhythm of the mouse retina

open access: yesHeliyon
The retina is the only organ projecting external light to the suprachiasmatic nucleus. Cholecystokinin receptor type A (Cckar/Cckar) is one of the essential factors for light reception in retinal cells. As there was a lack of literature on the matter, we
