Expression of ghrelin and ghrelin functional receptor GHSR1a in human pituitary adenomas
INTRODUCTION Pituitary adenomas are heterogenous lesions commonly observed in the central nervous system. Signal transduction of ghrelin, an endogenous ligand specific for growth hormone secretagogue receptor (GHSR), has been reported to be involved in the development of endocrine tumors.

This multicenter study compared subtotal versus completion gastrectomy for remnant gastric cancer. Subtotal gastrectomy was associated with shorter operative time and significantly less postoperative weight loss, with no difference in long‐term survival, suggesting it as a feasible surgical option without compromising oncologic outcomes.

Ghrelin is a peptide hormone released by specialized X/A cells in the stomach and activated by acylation. Following its secretion, it binds to ghrelin receptors in the periphery to regulate energy balance, but it also acts on the central nervous system ...

Sensing of fatty acids for octanoylation of ghrelin involves a gustatory G-protein. [PDF]
BackgroundGhrelin is an important regulator of energy--and glucose homeostasis. The octanoylation at Ser(3) is essential for ghrelin's biological effects but the mechanisms involved in the octanoylation are unknown.

Effects of oral, smoked, and vaporized cannabis on endocrine pathways related to appetite and metabolism: a randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled, human laboratory study. [PDF]
As perspectives on cannabis continue to shift, understanding the physiological and behavioral effects of cannabis use is of paramount importance. Previous data suggest that cannabis use influences food intake, appetite, and metabolism, yet human research

Bioactivity-guided mass spectral net working reveals a new set of allbicidin derivatives from Xanthomonas albilineans [PDF]
Albicidin is produced by the sugarcane pathogenic bacterium Xanthomonas albilineans and is a potent antibiotic specifically targeting the bacterial DNA gyrase with an IC50 value in the nanomolar range.

Gastric motility in ghrelin receptor knockout mice
The aim of this study was to investigate the effects and possible mechanisms of ghrelin receptor (GHS-R) deficiency on gastric motility in GHS-R deficient (Ghsr-/-) mice. Ghsr-/- and control (Ghsr+/+) mice were genotyped by PCR. The percentage of gastric emptying (GE%) was calculated following the intraperitoneal adminis-tration of ghrelin.

ABSTRACT Objective Adolescents with higher weight status (HWS; body mass index > 85th percentile adjusted for age and sex) are at greater risk of eating disorders (ED). This study examined factors associated with HWS adolescents' increased risk and how weight status interacts with other risk factors to influence ED onset. Method Australian adolescents (

Integrating the inputs that shape pancreatic islet hormone release. [PDF]
The pancreatic islet is a complex mini organ composed of a variety of endocrine cells and their support cells, which together tightly control blood glucose homeostasis.
