TL;DR: The endogenous gut hormone response after gastric bypass can thus potentially be further enhanced by additional exogenous therapy with pharmacological doses of gut hormones in patients with insufficient weight loss or weight regain after surgery.

TL;DR: The apparent presence of the C-terminal peptide of human pro-bombesin in higher concentrations than bombsin in the more malignant class of endocrine tumours, mainly small cell carcinomas associated with the poorest prognosis, suggests that the antiserum to this C- terminal peptide may prove to be of value in investigating the biological behaviour of smallcell carcinomas and predicting the clinical course of the disease.

TL;DR: The low level production of ET-1 by vascular smooth muscle cells may have an important autocrine function and may be under regulation of neuropeptides localized to perivascular nerves.

TL;DR: OXM6421 induces negative energy balance in both lean and obese rodents, suggesting that long-acting OXM analogues may represent a potential therapy for obesity.

TL;DR: A significant depletion of the neuropeptides was found in the region of the wound within two days, and this persisted for two weeks, and a smaller and delayed depletion also occurred in intact skin of the same dermatome, but not in an adjacent dermatome.
