Using programmable infusion pump in avian species – a validation methodology in geese
Wildlife face anthropogenic and natural stressors that affect their physiology and behaviour. The activity of the hypothalamic–pituitary–adrenal axis and glucocorticoid (GC) production is intrinsically linked with energy regulation and environmental stressors.

Role of SST, CORT and Ghrelin and its receptors at the endocrine pancreas.
Somatostatin (SST), cortistatin (CORT), and its receptors (sst1-5), and ghrelin and its receptors (GHS-R) are two highly interrelated neuropeptide systems with a broad range of overlapping biological actions at central, cardiovascular and immune levels ...

Kisspeptin as a test of hypothalamic dysfunction in pubertal and reproductive disorders
Abstract The hypothalamic–pituitary–gonadal axis is regulated by the gonadotropin‐releasing hormone pulse generator in the hypothalamus. This is comprised of neurons that secrete kisspeptin in a pulsatile manner to stimulate the release of GnRH, and, in turn, downstream gonadotropins from the pituitary gland, and subsequently sex steroids and ...

Hippocampus ghrelin signaling mediates appetite through lateral hypothalamic orexin pathways
Feeding behavior rarely occurs in direct response to metabolic deficit, yet the overwhelming majority of research on the biology of food intake control has focused on basic metabolic and homeostatic neurobiological substrates.

The gatekeepers of growth: The neural roles and regulation of growth hormone-releasing hormone neurons. [PDF]
Abstract The neuroendocrine control of growth is mediated by the hypothalamic–pituitary–somatic (HPS) axis. This involves the hypothalamic release of growth hormone‐releasing hormone (GHRH), which stimulates the pituitary secretion of growth hormone (GH).

Dynamics of Apolipoprotein J Levels and Metabolic Parameters Following Bariatric Surgery
ABSTRACT Objective Bariatric surgery has emerged as a potent intervention for ameliorating insulin resistance and its associated comorbidities in obese patients. Apolipoprotein J (ApoJ) and adiponectin are closely associated with insulin resistance and sensitivity, respectively.

Somatostatin is an important modulator of neurotransmission in the central nervous system and acts as a potent inhibitor of hormone and exocrine secretion and regulator of cell proliferation in the periphery.

Ghrelin and cannabinoids require the ghrelin receptor to affect cellular energy metabolism
Ghrelin is a potent orexigenic brain-gut peptide with lipogenic and diabetogenic effects, possibly mediated by growth hormone secretagogue receptor (GHS-R1a). Cannabinoids also have orexigenic and lipogenic effects. AMPK is a regulator of energy homeostasis and we have previously shown that ghrelin and cannabinoids stimulate hypothalamic AMPK activity ...

Ghrelin receptor in GtoPdb v.2021.3
The ghrelin receptor (nomenclature as agreed by the NC-IUPHAR Subcommittee for the Ghrelin receptor [19]) is activated by a 28 amino-acid peptide originally isolated from rat stomach, where it is cleaved from a 117 amino-acid precursor (GHRL, Q9UBU3).

Summary Background Bariatric surgery is very effective in long‐term weight management. The present study was undertaken to investigate the short‐term effects of sleeve gastrectomy (SG) and of Roux‐en‐Y gastric bypass (RYGB) on (a) gastrointestinal (GI) motility, that is gastric emptying and oro‐cecal transit time and (b) secretion of regulatory gut ...
