Des-Acyl Ghrelin Directly Targets the Arcuate Nucleus in a Ghrelin- Receptor Independent Manner and Impairs the Orexigenic Effect of Ghrelin
(Wiley Blackwell Publishing, Inc, 2016-02)
Ghrelin is a stomach-derived octanoylated peptide hormone that plays a variety of well-established biological roles acting via its specific receptor known as growth hormone secretagogue receptor (GHSR). In plasma, a ...
Plasma levels of ghrelin, des-acyl ghrelin and LEAP2 in children with obesity: Correlation with age and insulin resistance
(BioScientifica, 2019-11)
Objective: The octanoylated peptide hormone ghrelin regulates appetite and glycaemic control. Des-acyl ghrelin abolishes some effects of ghrelin, but does not bind to ghrelin receptor. LEAP2 is a novel ligand for ghrelin ...
Determinação da grelina acilada e dos ácidos graxos livres durante teste de tolerância oral à glicose na gestação normal e na gestação complicada por diabetes gestacional
(Universidade Federal de Minas GeraisUFMG, 2009-11-04)
The gestational diabetes is admittedly an insulin resistant state. It is thus an excellent model to study the pattern of many metabolic values that show differences in insulin resistants states. These differences occur ...
Fasting Upregulates npy, agrp, and ghsr without Increasing Ghrelin Levels in Zebrafish (Danio rerio) Larvae
(Frontiers Media S.A., 2019)
Food intake in fish and mammals is orchestrated by hypothalamic crosstalk between orexigenic (food intake stimulation) and anorexigenic (food intake inhibition) signals. Some of these signals are released by peripheral ...
