Phoenixin (PNX), well-conserved but newly discovered neuropeptide, is involved in various physiological processes, such as food intake, cardiovascular functions, reproductive and stress regulation. PNX the predicted ligand of GPR173 receptor, due to its relatively recent discovery 2013, there a lack studies describing exact mechanism action peptide. In addition, protein was not been well-studied specific organs, particularly gastrointestinal tract (GIT) ruminants, including domestic cattle, which are among world's main livestock animals. Therefore, this study aimed investigate immunolocalization quantification GIT cattle. Study material, sections two age groups, calves adult bulls (n = 6 per group), obtained from slaughterhouse. Enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA) immunohistochemical (IHC) analyses were performed. Analyses revealed low levels both with localization restricted epithelial cells across all examined segments, statistically significant differences between groups may result delayed development forestomachs calves. On other hand, shown be higher than those have wider distribution extending beyond epithelium blood vessels wall intrinsic nervous system. This suggests that only for receptor. Overall, results suggest could possibly play protective roles related immune response, regulate digestive absorptive receptor presence nerve fibres, role regulating secretion motility. These findings potentially facilitate further research into therapeutic potential targeting managing disorders cattle species, can also used experimental, clinical or pharmacological treatment eating humans, farm

This review describes how the classic gut hormone, cholecystokinin (CCK), should be comprehended in 2025. In early physiological tradition of studying gastrointestinal hormones, hormones were named after function that lead to their discovery. Hence, 1928, hormonal factor upper regulated gallbladder contraction was called cholecystokinin. 1968, Viktor Mutt and Erik Jorpes identified porcine structure this as an O-sulfated carboxyamidated peptide 33 amino acid residues (CCK-33). Its C-terminal bioactive heptapeptide amide turned out homologous antral gastrin. The allowed vitro synthesis fragments for studies production CCK-antibodies immunoassays immunohistochemistry. Today, these tools have revealed CCK highly complex: is a heterogenous, multifunctional messenger system, widely expressed both outside gut. Thus, gene encodes six different peptides (CCK-83, -58, -33, -22, -8, -5) are cell-specific manner non-sulfated forms. Moreover, not only hormones. They also potent neurotransmitters, paracrine growth satiety factors, anti-inflammatory cytokines, incretins, potential fertility factors useful tumor-markers. has phylogenetic history nearly 600 million years. Particular interest been given neuroscience CCK, because predominant transmitter brain, amounts surpass any other neuropeptide. Vice versa, brain main site mammals.

Phoenixin (PNX) is a novel peptide with diverse functions mediated by the orphan receptor GPR173. It also plays role in appetite control, but effect not consistent across species and mechanisms involved are still unclear. Using goldfish as model, underlying feeding regulation PNX were examined. In our study, two isoforms of PNX, PNXa PNXb, one form GPR173 cloned found to be highly conserved compared their counterparts other based on sequence alignment, phylogenetic analysis, silico protein modeling. RT-PCR, PNXa/b confirmed ubiquitously expressed at tissue level. goldfish, transcript expression liver brain areas including telencephalon, hypothalamus, optic tectum, elevated food intake suppressed fasting. Intraperitoneal (IP) intracerebroventricular (ICV) injections PNX20a PNX20b, mature peptides for PNXb respectively, both effective increasing foraging behavior, surface motility, intake. Furthermore, orexigenic factors (neuropeptide Y (NPY), agouti-related peptide, orexin, apelin) was parallel drops anorexigenic signals (cholecystokinin, pro-opiomelanocortin, corticotropin-releasing hormone, melanin-concentrating hormone) and/or tectum. same areas, (leptin adiponectin) attenuated concurrent rises levels (NPY ghrelin). after IP injection PNX20a/b, downregulation leptin, adiponectin, inhibitors noted. Our findings reveal that PNX20a/b can serve an factor goldfish.

Abstract Alzheimer’s disease (AD) is a devastating neurodegenerative disorder affecting 44 million people worldwide, leading to cognitive decline, memory loss, and significant impairment in daily functioning. The recent single-cell sequencing technology has revolutionized genetic genomic resolution by enabling scientists explore the diversity of gene expression patterns at finest resolution. Here, we leveraged large-scale publicly available single-nucleus RNA (snRNA-seq) human prefrontal cortex (PFC) from 23 AD samples 13 controls investigate cell-to-cell communication (C2C) healthy brains their perturbations AD. Specifically, first performed broad pattern analyses discovered inter-mixing cell types signaling pathways brains. Secondly, cell-type- centric analysis found that excitatory neurons have significantly increased communications inhibitory neurons, while other supporting cells globally decreased theirs all cells. Then, delved deeper with signaling-centric view, showing canonical CSF, TGFβ, CX3C are dysregulated type microglia/PVM WNT pathway its endothelial neuronal Finally, after extracting known risk genes, our intracellular revealed strong connection extracellular ligand genes APP, APOE, PSEN1 TREM2, ABCA1, APP astrocytes microglia neurons. In summary, novel advances technologies, show cellular regulated specific manner improper regulation linked connecting differences manifested Author Summary complex interplay suggests act concert through communication. Utilizing sequencing, investigated ligand-receptor pairs cell-type Our cell-type-centric With performing better explains Alzheimer’s.

Major depressive disorder (MDD) is a serious disease and burden to patients, families society. Rodent experiments human studies suggest that several neuropeptide systems are involved in mood regulation. The aim of this study two-fold: (i) monitor, with qPCR, transcript levels the substance P/tachykinin (TAC), NPY CCK bulk samples from control suicide subjects, targeting five postmortem brain regions including locus coeruleus (LC); (ii) analyse expression family transcripts LC neurons 'normal' brains by using laser capture microdissection Smart-Seq2 RNA sequencing. qPCR revealed distinct regional patterns male female controls higher for TAC system dorsal raphe nucleus LC, versus prefrontal cortex. In TAC, receptors few were increased mainly cortex LC. second on noradrenergic GAL, NPY, TAC1, CCK, TACR1 many other peptides (e.g. Cerebellin4 CARTPT) Adcyap1R1 GPR173). These data our previous results indicates tachykinin galanin may be valid targets developing antidepressant medicines. Moreover, perturbation MDD detection further receptor shed new light signalling mechanisms possibly associated disorders.
