Effects of the vasoactive intestinal peptide (VIP) and related peptides on glioblastoma cell growth in vitro [PDF]

open access: yes, 2003
The growth rate of numerous cancer cell lines is regulated in part by actions of neuropeptides of the vasoactive intestinal peptide (VIP) family, which also includes pituitary adenylate cyclase-activating peptide (PACAP), glucagon, and peptide histidine ...

The Novel Dual GLP-1/GIP Receptor Agonist DA-CH5 Is Superior to Single GLP-1 Receptor Agonists in the MPTP Model of Parkinson’s Disease

open access: yesJournal of Parkinson’s Disease, 2020
Background: Parkinson’s disease (PD) is a progressive neurodegenerative disease for which there is no cure. In a clinical trial, the glucagon-like peptide-1 (GLP-1) receptor agonist exendin-4 has shown good protective effects in PD patients.

Late‐Stage Functionalization of Peptides on the Solid Phase

open access: yesAngewandte Chemie International Edition, EarlyView.
Peptide modifications are essential to control pharmacodynamic and pharmacokinetic properties of peptide drugs. Consequently, strategies that allow for efficient and rapid incorporation of non‐canonical modifications into peptides in parallel formats are highly sought after.

Glucagon receptors in endothelial and Kupffer cells of mouse liver.

open access: yes, 1988
To determine whether hepatic sinusoidal cells contain glucagon receptors and, if so, to study the significance of the receptors in the cells, binding of [125I]-glucagon to nonparenchymal cells (mainly endothelial cells and Kupffer cells) isolated from ...

Loss and restoration of glucagon receptors and responsiveness in a transformed kidney cell line

open access: yes, 1982
A kidney cell line (MDCK) retains an adenylate cyclase system sensitive to glucagon, vasopressin, isoproterenol and prostaglandin E1. The stimulatory effect of glucagon on cAMP production was selectively lost in a cloned line derived from MDCK cells ...

The mediation by GLP-1 receptors of glucagon-induced insulin secretion revisited in GLP-1 receptor knockout mice

open access: yes, 2021
To study whether activation of GLP-1 receptors importantly contributes to the insulinotropic action of exogenously administered glucagon, we have performed whole animal experiments in normal mice and in mice with GLP-1 receptor knockout.

Glucagon‐Like Peptide‐1 Receptor Agonist Use in Obese Patients Is Associated With Decreased Risk of Revision and Retears After Arthroscopic Rotator Cuff Repair

open access: yesArthroscopy, EarlyView.
Purpose To evaluate the impact of preoperative glucagon‐like peptide‐1 receptor agonist (GLP‐1 RA) use on medical complications, emergency department use, and orthopaedic complications in obese patients undergoing arthroscopic rotator cuff repair. Methods Obese patients (defined by relevant ICD‐10 codes and confirmed by body mass index measurements ...

FRET Reporter Assays for cAMP and Calcium in a 96-well Format Using Genetically Encoded Biosensors Expressed in Living Cells

open access: yesBio-Protocol, 2020
Stimulation of G protein-coupled receptors (GPCR) by hormones and neurotransmitters elicits cellular responses, many of which result from alterations in the concentrations of cytosolic cAMP and Ca2+.

Characterization of receptors mediating AVP- and OT-induced glucagon release from the rat pancreas

open access: yes, 1999
We characterized the receptors that mediate arginine vasopressin (AVP)- and oxytocin (OT)-induced glucagon release by use of a number of antagonists in the perfused rat pancreas and the fluorescence imaging of the receptors.

Gut Health in Ostriches (Struthio camelus): Insights Into Intestinal Structure, Functions, Microbiome, and Improvement Strategies

open access: yesAnimal Research and One Health, EarlyView.
Our paper systematically reviews the intestinal structure, function, and microbiota of ostriches, along with strategies for improving their gut health. We analyze how these factors collectively influence intestinal homeostasis and ostrich welfare, emphasizing probiotics as a promising intervention to enhance gut health, boost population well‐being, and
