Neuroendocrine and Molecular Interactions in Eating Disorders [PDF]
There are three basic pillars for the development of eating disorders: genetic predisposition, neuro-endocrine-molecular changes in the brain and metabolic response to it.

A receptor-based analysis of local ecosystems in the human brain. [PDF]
BackgroundAs a complex system, the brain is a self-organizing entity that depends on local interactions among cells. Its regions (anatomically defined nuclei and areas) can be conceptualized as cellular ecosystems, but the similarity of their functional ...

BRAIN CHOLECYSTOKININ SYSTEM IN NEUROTIC PATHOLOGY
Violation and discoordination of mental processes leads to changes in the ratio of the main neurotransmitters content and further to mental disorders. A significant role in such processes is played by neuropeptides, in particular anti-anxiety ones, which

The evolution and variety of RFamide-type neuropeptides: insights from deuterostomian invertebrates [PDF]
Five families of neuropeptides that have a C-terminal RFamide motif have been identified in vertebrates: (1) gonadotropin-inhibitory hormone (GnIH), (2) neuropeptide FF (NPFF), (3) pyroglutamylated RFamide peptide (QRFP), (4) prolactin-releasing peptide (

Adaptive immunity alters distinct host feeding pathways during nematode induced inflammation, a novel mechanism in parasite expulsion. [PDF]
Gastrointestinal infection is often associated with hypophagia and weight loss; however, the precise mechanisms governing these responses remain poorly defined.

Gastrin Exerts Pleiotropic Effects on Human Melanoma Cell Biology
The effects of gastrin (G17) on the growth and migration factors of four human melanoma cell lines (HT-144, C32, G-361, and SKMEL-28) were investigated. The expression patterns of cholecystokinin (CCK)A CCKB, and CCKC gastrin receptors were investigated ...

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