Nutrient Sensing Systems in Fish: Impact on Food Intake Regulation and Energy Homeostasis.

Frontiers in neuroscience

Conde-Sieira M, Soengas JL.
PMID: 28111540
Front Neurosci. 2017 Jan 05;10:603. doi: 10.3389/fnins.2016.00603. eCollection 2016.

Evidence obtained in recent years in a few species, especially rainbow trout, supports the presence in fish of nutrient sensing mechanisms. Glucosensing capacity is present in central (hypothalamus and hindbrain) and peripheral [liver, Brockmann bodies (BB, main accumulation of...

Involvement of the CXCL12 System in the Stimulatory Effects of Prenatal Exposure to High-Fat Diet on Hypothalamic Orexigenic Peptides and Behavior in Offspring.

Frontiers in behavioral neuroscience

Poon K, Barson JR, Shi H, Chang GQ, Leibowitz SF.
PMID: 28567007
Front Behav Neurosci. 2017 May 17;11:91. doi: 10.3389/fnbeh.2017.00091. eCollection 2017.

Exposure to a high fat diet (HFD) during gestation stimulates neurogenesis and expression of hypothalamic orexigenic neuropeptides that affect consummatory and emotional behaviors. With recent studies showing a HFD to increase inflammation, this report investigated the neuroinflammatory chemokine, CXCL12,...

The contribution of the genomes of a termite and a locust to our understanding of insect neuropeptides and neurohormones.

Frontiers in physiology

Veenstra JA.
PMID: 25477824
Front Physiol. 2014 Nov 19;5:454. doi: 10.3389/fphys.2014.00454. eCollection 2014.

The genomes of the migratory locust Locusta migratoria and the termite Zootermopsis nevadensis were mined for the presence of genes encoding neuropeptides, neurohormones, and their G-protein coupled receptors (GPCRs). Both species have retained a larger number of neuropeptide and...

Regulation of the hypothalamic-pituitary-adrenal axis by neuropeptides.

Hormone molecular biology and clinical investigation

Aguilera G.
PMID: 25961271
Horm Mol Biol Clin Investig. 2011 Oct 01;7(2):327-36. doi: 10.1515/HMBCI.2011.123.

The major endocrine response to stress occurs via activation of the hypothalamic-pituitary-adrenal (HPA) axis, leading ultimately to increases in circulating glucocorticoids, which are essential for the metabolic adaptation to stress. The major players in the HPA axis are the...

[Mechanisms of neurotrophic and neuroprotective effects of cerebrolysin in cerebral ischemia].

Zh Nevrol Psikhiatr Im S S Korsakova. 2014;114(3):43-50.

Cerebrolysin is the drug which contains peptides derived from the brain of a pig. It is used in neurological practice for recovery of stroke patients and treatment of dementia. Despite the evidence-basis and some experimental studies, the distinct mechanisms...

Prophylactic activity of increasing doses of intravenous histamine in refractory migraine: Retrospective observations of a series of patients with migraine without aura.

Current therapeutic research, clinical and experimental

Pietrini U, De Luca M, Del Bene E, De Cesaris F, Bertinotti L, Colangelo N, Moggi Pignone A.
PMID: 24936105
Curr Ther Res Clin Exp. 2004 Jan;65(1):70-8. doi: 10.1016/S0011-393X(04)90006-9.

BACKGROUND: Histamine is thought to play a pivotal role in the modulation of peripheral and central pain. The administration of increasing doses of histamine may lead to desensitization of receptors of histamine types 1 and 2, causing meningeal vasodilation,...

Linear psoriasis following the typical distribution of the sciatic nerve.

Journal of dermatological case reports

Galluzzo M, Talamonti M, Di Stefani A, Chimenti S.
PMID: 25932056
J Dermatol Case Rep. 2015 Mar 31;9(1):6-11. doi: 10.3315/jdcr.2015.1189. eCollection 2015 Mar 31.

BACKGROUND: Some studies suggest that the nervous system plays a role in the onset of psoriasis and psoriasis flares including the symmetry of lesions, sparing of denervated skin and the role of stress in inducing lesions.MAIN OBSERVATIONS: We describe...

Insulin signaling regulates neurite growth during metamorphic neuronal remodeling.

Biology open

Gu T, Zhao T, Hewes RS.
PMID: 24357229
Biol Open. 2014 Jan 15;3(1):81-93. doi: 10.1242/bio.20136437.

Although the growth capacity of mature neurons is often limited, some neurons can shift through largely unknown mechanisms from stable maintenance growth to dynamic, organizational growth (e.g. to repair injury, or during development transitions). During insect metamorphosis, many terminally...

Effects of variants in proopiomelanocortin and neuropeptide y genes on growth, carcass, and meat quality traits in rabbits.

Asian-Australasian journal of animal sciences

Until 2000 it was believed that gonadotropin-releasing hormone (GnRH) was the sole regulator of hypophyseal gonadotropes. In 2000, the discovery of a gonadotropin inhibitory hormone (GnIH) initiated a revolution in the field of reproductive physiology. Identification of GnIH homologues...
