Role of Dopaminergic and Cannabinoidergic Receptors on Ghrelin-Induced Hypophagia in 5-Day-Old Broiler Chicken [PDF]
The present study aimed to identify the role of dopaminergic and cannabinoidergic systems in the ghrelin-induced hypophagia among meat-type chickens.

Role of Central Cannabinoidergic System on Ghrelin-Induced Hypophagia in Layer-Type Neonatal Chicken [PDF]
Background: Feeding behavior is regulated via a complex network which interacts through diverse signals from central and peripheral tissues. OBJECTIVES: The main purpose of the current study was to determine the role of central cannabinoidergic (CBergic)

GABAB Receptor Blockade Prevents Antiepileptic Action of Ghrelin in the Rat Hippocampus [PDF]
Purpose: Ghrelin has been shown to have antiepileptic function. However, the underlying mechanisms by which, ghrelin exerts its antiepileptic effects are still unclear.

Concomitant release of ventral tegmental acetylcholine and accumbal dopamine by ghrelin in rats. [PDF]
Ghrelin, an orexigenic peptide, regulates energy balance specifically via hypothalamic circuits. Growing evidence suggest that ghrelin increases the incentive value of motivated behaviours via activation of the cholinergic-dopaminergic reward link.

Mechanisms of Ghrelin anti-heart failure: inhibition of Ang II-induced cardiomyocyte apoptosis by down-regulating AT1R expression. [PDF]
BACKGROUND: Ghrelin is a novel growth hormone-releasing peptide administered to treat chronic heart failure (CHF). However, the underlying mechanism of its protective effects against heart failure (HF) remains unclear.
