Ghrelin-O-Acyltransferase (GOAT) Enzyme as a Novel Potential Biomarker in Gastroenteropancreatic Neuroendocrine Tumors
(Nature.com, 2018)
Objectives: The association between the presence and alterations of the components of the ghrelin system and the
development and progression of neuroendocrine tumors (NETs) is still controversial and remains unclear.
Methods: ...

A Novel Human Ghrelin Variant (In1-Ghrelin) and Ghrelin-O-Acyltransferase Are Overexpressed in Breast Cancer: Potential Pathophysiological Relevance
(Public Library Of Science (PLOS), 2011)
The human ghrelin gene, which encodes the ghrelin and obestatin peptides, contains 5 exons (Ex), with Ex1-Ex4 encoding a
117 amino-acid (aa) preproprotein that is known to be processed to yield a 28-aa (ghrelin) and/or a ...
Role of Endogenous Cortistatin in the Regulation of Ghrelin System Expression at Pancreatic Level under Normal and Obese Conditions
(Public Library Of Science (PLOS), 2013)
Ghrelin-system components [native ghrelin, In1-ghrelin, Ghrelin-O-acyltransferase enzyme (GOAT) and receptors (GHS-Rs)]
are expressed in a wide variety of tissues, including the pancreas, where they exert different ...
Rab18 is reduced in pituitary tumors cusing acromegaly and its overexpression reverts growth hormone hypersecretion
(Oxford Academic, 2008)
Context: Rab proteins regulate the sequential steps of intracellular membrane transport. Alterations of these GTPases and their associated proteins are emerging as the underlying cause for several human diseases involving ...
Journal article resistin regulates pituitary somatotrope cell function through the activation of multiple signaling pathways
(Endocrine Society, 2009)
The adipokine resistin is an insulin-antagonizing factor that also plays a regulatory role in inflammation, immunity, food intake, and gonadal function. Although adipose tissue is the primary source of resistin, it is also ...
