Ciliary neurotrophic factor curbs palmitate-induced inflammatory and metabolic changes in NPY/AgRP hypothalamic neurons

This study shows that CNTF protects NPY/AgRP hypothalamic neurons from palmitate-induced inflammation and metabolic dysfunction by modulating signaling pathways and gene expression.

Plasma oxytocin measured by LC-MS/MS varies with life stage, sex, and obesity in mice

This study measures plasma oxytocin levels in mice across life stages, sex, and obesity using LC-MS/MS, finding higher levels in adulthood and differences in obesity between sexes.

The ciliary neurotrophic factor induces Stat3 phosphorylation in distinctive cytotypes of organs involved in body metabolism: an immunohistochemical study

This study identifies distinct cytotypes in metabolically relevant organs that respond to CNTF by phosphorylating STAT3, highlighting its peripheral metabolic effects.

A2 and A1B in vitro milk digests: effects on in vitro leaky gut model and adipose cells

This study evaluates the effects of A1B and A2 bovine milk digests on intestinal barrier function and adipocyte inflammation, finding that A2 milk preserves gut integrity and has lower inflammatory potential.
