It is concluded that the stomach is a major source of circulating ghrelin and that plasma gh Relin-like immunoreactivity levels reflect acute and chronic feeding states in humans.

The results suggest that BPA could displace T(3) from the TR and recruit a transcriptional repressor, resulting in gene suppression, the first report that B PA can antagonize T( 3) action at the transcriptional level.
Ghrelin strongly stimulates growth hormone release in humans.

This is the first study showing evidence that ghrelin strongly stimulates GH release in humans, and the lowest dose resulted in only minimum peak values of these hormones.
Lymphocytic infundibuloneurohypophysitis as a cause of central diabetes insipidus.
Diabetes insipidus can be caused by lymphocytic infundibuloneurohypophysitis, which can be detected by MRI, and the natural course of the disorder is self-limited, suggesting a self- limited process.

There are large differences in GEP-NETs between Japan and Western nations, primarily due to differences in the presence of MEN-1 in NF-PETs and the location, symptomatic status, and prevalence of malignancy in GI- NETs.

The comprehensive diagnostic criteria for IgG4-RD are practically useful for general physicians and nonspecialists and are adequately sensitive for Igg4-related Mikulicz’s disease (MD) and kidney disease (KD) and AIP.

It is demonstrated that EPA increases adiponectin secretion in rodent models of obesity and human obese subjects, possibly through the improvement of the inflammatory changes in obese adipose tissue.
The dietary compound curcumin inhibits p300 histone acetyltransferase activity and prevents heart failure in rats.
- T. Morimoto, Y. Sunagawa, K. Hasegawa
- Biology, MedicineJournal of Clinical Investigation
- 3 March 2008
It is concluded that inhibition of p300 HAT activity by the nontoxic dietary compound curcumin may provide a novel therapeutic strategy for heart failure in humans.
Antiatherogenic effect of pioglitazone in type 2 diabetic patients irrespective of the responsiveness to its antidiabetic effect.

- MedicineDiabetes Care
- 1 September 2003
This study represents the first demonstration of the antiatherogenic effect of pioglitazone in both nonresponders and responders with respect to its antidiabetic effect and suggests that piog litazone can exert its antiatherogensic effect independently of its antidisabetic effect.
