Activation of the AMP-dependent kinase pathway and subsequent increased fatty acid oxidation seems to be the main mechanism of action of these hormones in the regulation of lipid metabolism.

A group at MedUni Vienna has identified a regulatory loop controlled by leptin, by which this adipocyte-derived hormone regulates hepatic lipid metabolism via the autonomic nervous system. The ...

To investigate changes in adipocyte hormones and lipid oxidation during and after a weight-reduction programme in severely obese adolescents. Longitudinal-clinical investigation including a 9 ...

The sugar-responsive enteroendocrine neuropeptide F regulates lipid metabolism through glucagon-like and insulin-like hormones in Drosophila melanogaster. Nature Communications , 2021; 12 (1) DOI ...

The hormone prolactin is necessary for the production of breast milk, but it also affects adipose (fatty) tissue and the body's metabolism. Raised prolactin levels in a woman who is not pregnant ...

They have developed a new compound, ZTA-261, which selectively binds to the thyroid hormone receptor beta ... activation of THRβ influences lipid metabolism without these severe side effects.

In a study published today in the Journal of Clinical Lipidology, Samar R. El Khoudary, Ph.D., M.P.H., has identified a link between a lesser-known hormone called anti-Müllerian hormone (AMH) and ...

A single pellet of recycled plastic can contain over 80 different chemicals. A new study by researchers from the University ...

A study from Fujita Health University reveals that proglucagon-derived peptides (PGDPs) significantly impact fat absorption and accumulation in the liver. Using genetically modified GCGKO mice on a ...

Somatotropin (recombinant human growth hormone) in adults with growth hormone deficiency significantly raised HDL levels at 24 months.

A study group at MedUni Vienna has identified a regulatory loop controlled by leptin, by which this adipocyte-derived hormone regulates hepatic lipid metabolism via the autonomic nervous system.
