Hepatic fibrosis, the wound-healing response to repeated liver injury, ultimately leads to cirrhosis. There is an urgent need to develop effective antifibrotic therapies. Ghrelin (encoded by Ghrl) is an orexigenic hormone that has pleiotrophic functions including protection against cell death1. Here...

Ghrelin deletion and conditional ghrelin-cell ablation increase pancreatic islet size in mice
Ghsr-/- mice and WT controls (14 weeks-old, n = 3 / group) were used to analyse whole genome gene expression in the hippocampal DG. Briefly, mice were prepared with jugular vein cannulae attached to osmotic mini-pumps (Alzet model 2001) under isofluorane anesthesia. The mini-pumps delivered either v...

Background: There is increasing evidence that unacylated ghrelin (UAG) improves insulin sensitivity and glucose homeostasis; however, the mechanism for this activity is not fully understood since a UAG receptor has not been discovered. Methodology/Principal Findings: To assess potential mechanisms o...

Comparison of gene expression profiles from epididymal and retroperitoneal fat in adult male SD rats.

We utilized single cell sequencing of FACS sorted cells from pancreatic islets of wildtype and ghrelin knock out mice to understand the effects of ghrelin deletion on gene expression profiles of various islet cells.

Whole ovaries RNA sequencing WT and ghrelin o-acyltransferase (GOAT) knockout mice
Chitosan has been widely used in food industry as a weight-loss aid and a cholesterol-lowering agent. Previous studies have shown that chitosan affects metabolic responses and contributes to anti-diabetic, hypocholestermic, and blood glucose-lowering effects; however, the in vivo targeting sites and...
