Cholecystokinin: an excitatory modulator of mitral/tufted cells in the mouse olfactory bulb. [PDF]

PLoS ONE, 2013
Cholecystokinin (CCK) is widely distributed in the brain as a sulfated octapeptide (CCK-8S). In the olfactory bulb, CCK-8S is concentrated in two laminae: an infraglomerular band in the external plexiform layer, and an inframitral band in the internal ...

Drosulfakinin signaling modulates female sexual receptivity in Drosophila

eLife, 2022
Female sexual behavior as an innate behavior is of prominent biological importance for survival and reproduction. However, molecular and circuit mechanisms underlying female sexual behavior is not well understood.

Visceral pain-related acute actions of cerulein on mouse and human sensory neurons

Molecular Pain
Cerulein is an orthologue of cholecystokinin, which is often used to induce acute pancreatitis in pre-clinical studies. In these models, animals show signs of pain, and this is the most common complaint of patients with acute pancreatitis.

From hepatic to hematopoietic: LRH‐1's expanding cellular repertoire to the immune system

The FEBS Journal, EarlyView.
The nuclear receptor LRH‐1 is a well‐characterized regulator of endodermal tissue. Yet, increasing evidence indicates that LRH‐1, although expressed at low levels, is also a critical regulator of the hematopoietic system. LRH‐1 regulates the immune system by contributing to immune cell‐specific functions.

GABABR-dependent Long-Term Depression at Hippocampal Synapses Between CB1-positive Interneurons and CA1 Pyramidal Cells

Frontiers in Cellular Neuroscience, 2016
Activity induced long lasting modifications of synaptic efficacy have been extensively studied in excitatory synapses, however long term plasticity is also a property of inhibitory synapses.

Lower density of calretinin‐immunopositive neurons in the putamen of subjects with schizophrenia

Journal of Anatomy, Volume 246, Issue 4, Page 505-516, April 2025.
Recent neuroimaging and histological studies highlight the striatum as a key area involved in SCH, but the specific impairment of neuronal subtypes in subcortical structures is not fully understood. This study is the first detailed investigation of neuroanatomical changes in the putamen in SCH, specifically examining the density of calretinin ...

Sensing of luminal contents and downstream modulation of GI function

JGH Open
The luminal environment is rich in macronutrients coming from our diet and resident microbial populations including their metabolites. Together, they have the capacity to modulate unique cell surface receptors, known as G‐protein coupled receptors (GPCRs)

The MacBrain Resource Center (MBRC) rhesus macaque postnatal brain histology datasets: Enabling new discoveries through NHP tissue and digital data Repositories

Journal of Anatomy, EarlyView.
The MacBrain Resource Center (MBRC) postnatal rhesus macaque brain histology datasets are organized into Collections that promote cost‐effective de novo research. This article provides examples from Collections 5, 6, and 7 and describes the histo‐ and immunohistochemical (IHC) processing of materials for Collection 6.

Effects of Glucagon‐Like Peptide‐1 Receptor Agonists (Mono and Combination Therapy) on Energy Expenditure: A Scoping Review

Obesity Reviews, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Introduction Weight loss results in reduced energy expenditure (EE) due to body composition alterations (e.g., fat‐free mass and fat mass losses) and mass‐independent adaptations in EE (e.g., hormones). Glucagon‐like peptide‐1 receptor agonists (GLP‐1RA) are indicated for obesity management; however, their effects on EE remain unclear ...

Improvement strategies for peptide receptor scintigraphy and radionuclide therapy

, 2008
Somatostatin receptor-targeting peptides are widely used for the imaging and therapy of neuroendocrine tumors. Peptide-receptor radionuclide therapy (PRRT) in neuroendocrine tumor patients with radiolabeled somatostatin analogs has resulted in ...
