Circulating ghrelin levels are suppressed by meals and octreotide therapy in children with Prader-Willi syndrome.
Prader-Willi syndrome (PWS) is characterized by severe obesity, hyperphagia, hypogonadism, and GH deficiency. Unlike individuals with common obesity, who have low fasting-plasma ghrelin concentrations, those with PWS have high fasting-ghrelin concentrations that might contribute to their hyperphagia. Treatment with octreotide, a somatostatin agonist, decreases ghrelin concentrations in healthy ...
متن کاملIncreased Circulating miR-10a Levels Associated with Multiple Sclerosis
Background: Multiple sclerosis (MS) is an autoimmune disease that causes chronic inflammation of the central nervous system. MicroRNAs (miRNAs) are small non-coding RNAs 19–24 nucleotides long, which are differentially expressed in different tissues. The role of miRNAs in MS remains unclear. We assessed miR-10a transcript levels in MS patients during recurrence and two months after relapse. Ma...
متن کاملCirculating levels of ghrelin in human fetuses.
OBJECTIVE Ghrelin is a GH secretagog isolated recently from rat stomach and involved in the stimulation of food intake and adiposity in rodents and humans. Moreover, subsequent studies showed that ghrelin is expressed in rat and human placenta, suggesting a possible influence of the peptide on fetal growth. The aim of this study was to evaluate circulating levels of ghrelin in appropriate for g...
متن کاملHyperthyroidism-Associated Insulin Resistance Is Not Mediated by Adiponectin Levels
To evaluate the relationship between circulating adiponectin and insulin sensitivity in patients with hyperthyroid Graves' disease, we studied 19 adult patients with this disease and 19 age- and sex-matched euthyroid controls. All hyperthyroid patients were treated with antithyroid drugs and were re-evaluated after thyroid function normalized. Before antithyroid treatment, the adiponectin plasm...
