Developmental and Hormonally Regulated Messenger Ribonucleic Acid Expression of KiSS-1 and Its Putative Receptor, GPR54, in Rat Hypothalamus and Potent Luteinizing Hormone-Releasing Activity of KiSS-1 Peptide
Víctor M. Navarro,Juan M. Castellano,R. Fernández-Fernández,M. L. Barreiro,Juan Carlos Roa,José E. Sánchez-Criado,Enrique Aguilar,Carlos Dieguez,Leonor Pinilla,Manuel Tena-Sempere +9 more
TL;DR: The current data support the contention that the hypothalamic KiSS-1/GPR54 system is a pivotal factor in central regulation of the gonadotropic axis at puberty and in adulthood.
Journal ArticleDOI
Kisspeptins and Reproduction: Physiological Roles and Regulatory Mechanisms
TL;DR: This review aims to provide a comprehensive account of the state-of-the-art in the field of kisspeptin physiology by covering in-depth the consensus knowledge on the major molecular features, biological effects, and mechanisms of action ofkisspeptins in mammals and, to a lesser extent, in nonmammalian vertebrates.
Journal ArticleDOI

Saha,Kamal Rahmouni,Carlos Dieguez,Antonio Vidal-Puig +22 more
TL;DR: Thyroid hormone–induced modulation of AMPK activity and lipid metabolism in the hypothalamus is a major regulator of whole-body energy homeostasis.
Journal ArticleDOI
Adipokines as emerging mediators of immune response and inflammation
TL;DR: Progress in adipokine research is discussed, focusing particular attention to the roles of leptin, adiponectin, resistin, visfatin, and other recently identified adipokines in inflammatory, autoimmune and rheumatic diseases.
Journal ArticleDOI
Changes in plasma levels of fat-derived hormones adiponectin, leptin, resistin and visfatin in patients with rheumatoid arthritis
Miguel Otero,Rocio Lago,Rodolfo Gómez,Francisca Lago,Carlos Dieguez,Juan J. Gomez-Reino,Oreste Gualillo +6 more
TL;DR: A marked increase in plasma levels of leptin, adiponectin and visfatin was noted in patients with rheumatoid arthritis, whereas resistin levels were similar to those observed in healthy controls, suggesting that resistin level is probably not one of the main signals associated with the pathogenesis of this disease.
