Histamine regulates neurotransmitter release in the central and peripheral nervous systems
through H 3 presynaptic receptors. The existence of the histamine H 3 receptor was …

Body weight is regulated by complex neurohormonal interactions between endocrine signals
of long-term adiposity (eg, leptin, a hypothalamic signal) and short-term satiety (eg, amylin, …

Tangier disease (TD) and familial HDL deficiency (FHA) have recently been linked to
mutations in the human ATP-binding cassette transporter 1 (hABCA1), a member of the ABC …

A recently identified neuropeptide with PRL-releasing capabilities binds to and activates a
previously known orphan G protein-coupled receptor, GPR10. We initiated a study to define …

In mammals, 11β-hydroxysteroid dehydrogenase (11-HSD) activity allows aldosterone
occupancy of mineralocorticoid receptors (MR) by inactivating endogenous glucocorticoids. The …

Circulating amylin inhibits food intake via activation of the area postrema (AP). The aim of
this study was to identify the neurochemical phenotype of the neurons mediating amylin's …

In the rat, the enzyme 11beta-hydroxysteroid dehydrogenase 2 (11betaHSD2) converts the
glucocorticoid corticosterone into receptor-inactive 11-dehydrocorticosterone, thereby …

11 beta-hydroxysteroid dehydrogenase (11-HSD) activity allows aldosterone occupancy of
mineralocorticoid receptors by inactivating endogenous glucocorticoids. The expression of …

States as an antihyperglycemic agent in patients with type 1 or type 2 DM treated with mealtime
insulin. 1 Further clinical testing of pramlintide in subjects with obesity demonstrated that …

Levels of brain dopamine D 2 receptor expression were compared between spontaneously
hypertensive rats (SHR) and normotensive Wistar-Kyoto (WKY) controls by quantitative in …
