Radiolabeled CCK/gastrin peptides for imaging and therapy of CCK2 receptor-expressing tumors [PDF]

open access: yes, 2010
Cholecystokinin (CCK) receptors are overexpressed in numerous human cancers, like medullary thyroid carcinomas, small cell lung cancers and stromal ovarian cancers.

2'-fucosyllactose Supplementation Improves Gut-Brain Signaling and Diet-Induced Obese Phenotype and Changes the Gut Microbiota in High Fat-Fed Mice. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2020
Obesity is characterized by fat accumulation, chronic inflammation and impaired satiety signaling, which may be due in part to gut microbial dysbiosis. Manipulations of the gut microbiota and its metabolites are attractive targets for obesity treatment ...

Cholecystokinin Activates Orexin/Hypocretin Neurons through the Cholecystokinin A Receptor [PDF]

open access: yesThe Journal of Neuroscience, 2005
Orexin A and B are neuropeptides implicated in the regulation of sleep/wakefulness and energy homeostasis. The regulatory mechanism of the activity of orexin neurons is not precisely understood. Using transgenic mice in which orexin neurons specifically express yellow cameleon 2.1, we screened for factors that affect the activity of orexin neurons (a ...

Intravenous Oxytocin Has no Effect on Ad Libitum Food Intake or Postprandial Plasma Glucose Concentrations in Individuals With Obesity: A Randomised, Placebo‐Controlled, Double‐Blind, Crossover Study

open access: yesDiabetes, Obesity and Metabolism, Volume 28, Issue 6, Page 4671-4682, June 2026.
ABSTRACT Introduction Oxytocin is expressed throughout the small intestine, suggesting a role for oxytocin in postprandial metabolism. Accordingly, single‐dose intranasal oxytocin reduces food intake and improves glucose tolerance. We investigated the effects of a continuous intravenous oxytocin infusion on ad libitum food intake, appetite sensations ...

Utilization of Knockout Mice to Examine the Potential Role of Gastric Histamine H2-Receptors in Menetrier’s Disease

open access: yesJournal of Pharmacological Sciences, 2003
Menetrier’s disease is characterized by giant gastric folds with foveolar hyperplasia and cystic dilatation, hypoproteinemia, and enhanced mucus secretion. The etiology remains unresolved and an effective treatment has yet to be established. Here we show

Treatment of type 2 diabetes by free fatty acid receptor agonists [PDF]

open access: yes, 2014
Dietary free fatty acids (FFAs), such as ω-3 fatty acids, regulate metabolic and anti-inflammatory processes, with many of these effects attributed to FFAs interacting with a family of G protein-coupled receptors.

Sulfakinin Signaling Sense Circulating Fructose and Suppresses Food Consumption via Insulin‐Like Peptide in Bactrocera Dorsalis

open access: yesAdvanced Science, Volume 13, Issue 29, 22 May 2026.
This study discovered a new pathway that tells fruit flies when to stop eating. It found that rising blood sugar (fructose) is detected by a sensor called GR43a. This triggers a chain reaction involving the satiety signal sulfakinin and its receptor, ultimately activating a final satiety signal, ILP5.

A Tac1‐Expressing Brainstem Pathway Underlies the Pathogenesis of Trigeminal Neuralgia

open access: yesAdvanced Science, Volume 13, Issue 29, 22 May 2026.
A critical TG‐Sp5CTac1‐PBNTac1 pathway drives trigeminal neuropathic pain (TNP). Tac1‐expressing parabrachial nucleus (PBNTac1) neurons exhibit heightened responses to innocuous stimuli in TNP, and chemogenetic inhibition of these neurons effectively prevents TNP development.

An opioid-like system regulating feeding behavior in C. elegans [PDF]

open access: yes, 2015
Neuropeptides are essential for the regulation of appetite. Here we show that neuropeptides could regulate feeding in mutants that lack neurotransmission from the motor neurons that stimulate feeding muscles. We identified nlp-24 by an RNAi screen of 115
