Increased Brown Adipose Tissue Thermogenesis in Phenylketonuria
In phenylketonuria (PKU), elevated phenylalanine (Phe) increases hepatic fibroblast growth factor 21 (FGF21) and thyroid hormones, enhancing brown adipose tissue (BAT) thermogenesis in patients. Central FGF21 reproduces this phenotype in rodents via reduced hypothalamic AMP‐activated protein kinase (AMPK) activity in the ventromedial nucleus of the ...

Structure and function of sea urchin neuropeptides
PhDThe subject of this thesis is the identification and functional characterization of sea urchin neuropeptides. Neuropeptides are important mediators of neural signalling in all known animals with a nervous system, including bilaterians, ctenophorans ...

Receptors of peptide hormones in the gut of rice brown planthopper (Nilaparvata lugens) as targets for novel insecticides [PDF]
The rice brown planthopper, Nilaparvata lugens, is a pest of rice where it can be responsible for single season crop losses of up to 38% (IRRI statistic).

Corticotropin-releasing hormone interacts with interleukin-1 to regulate prostaglandin H synthase-2 expression in human myometrium during pregnancy and labor [PDF]
Context: The onset of labor appears to involve the activation of myometrial inflammatory pathways, and transcription factors such as nuclear factor-κB (NF-κB) control expression of the contraction-associated proteins required to induce a procontractile ...

White adipose tissue undergoes browning under endogenous and exogenous stimuli, primarily regulated by core molecules such as PRDM16 and UCP1. It exhibits a double‐edged sword effect in metabolic diseases and tumors: while mitigating metabolic disease impacts and suppressing early‐stage tumors through nutritional competition, it may accelerate cachexia

The finding that thyrotropin-releasing hormone does not always act as a thyrotropin (TSH)-releasing factor in non-mammalian vertebrates has led researchers to believe that another hypothalamic factor may exhibit this function.

Weight Loss With GLP‐1 Agonists in Nondiabetic Adults: Systematic Review and Network Meta‐Analysis
ABSTRACT Objective Two glucagon‐like peptide‐1 receptor agonists (GLP‐1 RAs) (semaglutide and liraglutide) and one dual agonist (tirzepatide) are FDA‐approved for weight loss in adults with obesity without type 2 diabetes mellitus. This systematic review and network meta‐analysis aims to compare the efficacy of these agents against each other.
