Fibroblast growth factor 21 (FGF21) is a metabolic regulator that provides efficient and durable glycemic lipid control in various animal models. However, its potential to treat obesity, major health concern affecting over 30% of the population, has not been fully explored. Here we report systemic administration FGF21 for 2 wk diet-induced obese ob/ob mice lowered their mean body weight by 20% predominantly via reduction adiposity. Although no decrease total caloric intake or effect on...

The primary objective was to evaluate intracranial response rate (iORR) in patients receiving abemaciclib with brain or leptomeningeal metastases (LM) secondary hormone receptor-positive (HR+) metastatic breast cancer (MBC). Secondary objectives evaluated extracranial response, pharmacokinetics, tissue exposure, and safety.This nonrandomized, phase II study (NCT02308020) enrolled tumor subtype-specific cohorts A-D: A (HR+, HER2- MBC), B HER2+ C (HR+ MBC LM), D (brain surgical resection)....

The hypothalamic neuropeptide melanin-concentrating hormone (MCH) has been implicated in a variety of physiological functions including the regulation feeding and energy homeostasis. Two MCH receptors (MCHR1 MCHR2) have identified so far. To decipher functional role receptors, we generated phenotypically characterized mice rendered deficient MCHR1 expression by homologous recombination. Inactivation results (MCHR1-/-) that are resistant to diet-induced obesity. With high-fat diet, body fat...

Activation of free fatty acid receptor 1 (GPR40) by synthetic partial and full agonists occur via distinct allosteric sites. A crystal structure GPR40-TAK-875 complex revealed the site for agonist. Here we report 2.76-Å human GPR40 in with a agonist, compound 1, bound to second site. Unlike TAK-875, which acts as Gαq-coupled is dual Gαq Gαs-coupled binds lipid-rich region near intracellular loop 2 (ICL2), stabilization ICL2 ligand likely primary mechanism enhanced G protein activities. The...

The positive correlation between leptin and body fat mass has caused some investigators to speculate that resistance contributes obesity. Loss of ovarian function in human rat is associated with increased gain circulating levels. To study whether ovariectomy produces resistance, Sprague-Dawley female rats were ovariectomized or sham operated injected for 35 days. Ovariectomy (OVX) produced hyperphagia both lean mass. Daily injections initially decreased food intake significantly, but feeding...

The mammalian neuropeptide, melanin-concentrating hormone, interacts with two G protein-coupled receptors, hormone receptor (MCHR) 1 and MCHR2; however, only MCHR1 is expressed in rats mice. In the present study, we evaluated antagonism preclinical models believed to be predictive of antiobesity antidepressant activity. Central activity selective antagonist, GW803430 [6-(4-chloro-phenyl)-3-[3-methoxy-4-(2-pyrrolidin-1-yl-ethoxy)-phenyl]-3H-thieno[3,2-d]pyrimidin-4-one], was using ex vivo...

Objective: We applied a comparative functional genomics approach to evaluate whether diet-induced obese (DIO) rats serve as an effective obesity model. Methods and Procedures: Gene-expression profiles of epididymal fat from DIO lean were generated using microarrays compared with the published array data non-obese human subcutaneous adipocytes. Results: Caloric intake fuel efficiency significantly higher in rats, which resulted increased body weight adiposity. Circulating glucose,...
