FAM237A, rather than peptide PEN and proCCK56-63, is a ligand of the orphan receptor GPR83

H.-Z. Li, Y.-F. Wang, X.-X. Shao, Y.-L. Liu, Z.-G. Xu, S.-L. Wang, Z.-Y. Guo

This study identifies FAM237A as the true ligand of GPR83, refuting previous claims that PEN and proCCK56-63 are agonists of this receptor.

LEAP2 is a more conserved ligand than ghrelin for fish GHSRs

H.-Z. Li, X.-X. Shao, Y.-F. Wang, Y.-L. Liu, Z.-G. Xu, Z.-Y. Guo

The paper shows LEAP2 binds more consistently to fish GHSRs than ghrelin, suggesting LEAP2 is a more conserved ligand in these species.
