Aberrant location of inhibitory synaptic marker proteins in the hippocampus of dystrophin-deficient mice [PDF]

open access: yes, 2014
Duchenne muscular dystrophy (DMD) is a neuromuscular disease that arises from mutations in the dystrophin-encoding gene. Apart from muscle pathology, cognitive impairment, primarily of developmental origin, is also a significant component of the disorder.

Ligand recognition and G-protein coupling selectivity of cholecystokinin A receptor.

open access: yes, 2021
Cholecystokinin A receptor (CCKAR) belongs to family A G-protein-coupled receptors and regulates nutrient homeostasis upon stimulation by cholecystokinin (CCK). It is an attractive drug target for gastrointestinal and metabolic diseases.

Proglumide analogues: potent cholecystokinin receptor antagonists

open access: yes, 1985
Proglumide [N-(benzoyl)-L-glutamic acid-1-di-n-propylamide] is a specific cholecystokinin receptor antagonist. In the present study we synthesized various analogues of proglumide and used pancreatic acini from guinea pig pancreas to examine the ...

Cholecystokinin Receptor Antagonist Suppresses Melanoma Growth by Inducing Apoptosis of Tumor Cells

open access: yesJID Innovations, 2022
Melanoma is a malignant skin tumor with high metastatic activity. Although melanoma has been well-studied, its cellular kinetics remain elusive. The cholecystokinin (CCK) receptor is expressed in various types of tumors because CCK promotes the survival ...

Gut Health in Ostriches (Struthio camelus): Insights Into Intestinal Structure, Functions, Microbiome, and Improvement Strategies

open access: yesAnimal Research and One Health, EarlyView.
Our paper systematically reviews the intestinal structure, function, and microbiota of ostriches, along with strategies for improving their gut health. We analyze how these factors collectively influence intestinal homeostasis and ostrich welfare, emphasizing probiotics as a promising intervention to enhance gut health, boost population well‐being, and

Advantages of low‐glycaemic‐index carbohydrates in regulating glycaemic response of energy bar: A review

open access: yesJournal of the Science of Food and Agriculture, EarlyView.
Abstract Energy bars are widely consumed functional foods among athletes and physically active consumers who require convenient sources of sustained energy. Their carbohydrate composition, particularly the type and ratio of digestible sugars such as glucose, fructose and sucrose, strongly influences glycaemic index (GI), postprandial blood glucose ...
