Evaluation and Diagnostic Potential of Serum Ghrelin in Feline Hypersomatotropism and Diabetes Mellitus [PDF]

open access: yes, 2015
BACKGROUND: Ghrelin is a growth hormone secretagogue. It is a potent regulator of energy homeostasis. Ghrelin concentration is down‐regulated in humans with hypersomatotropism (HS) and increases after successful treatment. Additionally, ghrelin secretion

Determination of the Entropic Heat Coefficient of Lithium‐Ion Batteries Based on a Continuous Measurement Method

open access: yesBatteries &Supercaps, EarlyView.
Understanding thermal battery behavior is essential for performance, safety, and longevity in automotive applications. This work presents a method to determine entropic‐heat coefficients using continuous quasi‐open‐circuit‐voltage measurements. The method's accuracy and robustness are validated through comparison with potentiometric measurements ...

Pituitary gigantism due to a novel AIP germline splice-site variant

open access: yesEndocrine Oncology
Pituitary gigantism is a rare pediatric disorder caused by excess growth hormone (GH) secretion. In almost 50% of cases, a genetic cause can be identified, with pathogenic variants in the aryl hydrocarbon receptor-interacting protein (AIP) gene being the

Mechanistic target of rapamycin (mTOR): a point of convergence in the action of insulin/IGF-1 and G protein-coupled receptor agonists in pancreatic cancer cells

open access: yesFrontiers in Physiology, 2014
Pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma (PDAC), the most common form of pancreatic cancer, is one of the most lethal human diseases. PDAC is now the fourth leading cause of cancer mortality in both men and women and deaths due to PDAC are projected to increase

Pss knockdown in the midgut causes growth retardation in Drosophila similar to that in human LMHD

open access: yesDevelopmental Dynamics, EarlyView.
Abstract Background Phosphatidylserine synthase (PSS), localized in the mitochondrial membrane, synthesizes phosphatidylserine. In humans, mutations in Pss lead to Lenz–Majewski hyperostotic dwarfism, a disorder affecting growth and development. The effects of Pss mutations on the growth of Drosophila melanogaster are not fully known. Hence, this study

Digital Rights Activism in Multilevel Governance

open access: yesEuropean Policy Analysis, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Multilevel governance (MLG) without a clear hierarchical structure can create power imbalances among various actors, particularly in settings with overlapping jurisdictions and policy areas. This dynamic is especially pronounced in Internet governance, which faces a complex interplay of domestic laws, state interdependence, and heightened ...
