Journal ArticleDOI
Weight loss, appetite suppression, and changes in fasting and postprandial ghrelin and peptide-YY levels after Roux-en-Y gastric bypass and sleeve gastrectomy: a prospective, double blind study
TL;DR: The markedly reduced ghrelin levels in addition to increased PYY levels after LSG, are associated with greater appetite suppression and excess weight loss compared with LRYGBP.
Journal ArticleDOI
Restoration of Euglycemia and Normal Acute Insulin Response to Glucose in Obese Subjects With Type 2 Diabetes Following Bariatric Surgery
Eftihia V. Polyzogopoulou,Fotios Kalfarentzos,Apostolos G. Vagenakis,Theodore K. Alexandrides +3 more
TL;DR: This is the first study to demonstrate that the lost glucose-induced AIR in patients with type 2 diabetes of mild or moderate severity is a reversible abnormality and restores a normal beta-cell AIR to glucose and a normal relationship of AIR to insulin sensitivity.
Journal ArticleDOI
The use of statins alone, or in combination with pioglitazone and other drugs, for the treatment of non-alcoholic fatty liver disease/non-alcoholic steatohepatitis and related cardiovascular risk. An Expert Panel Statement.

TL;DR: Physicians should consider using a PPARgamma agonist, such as pioglitazone, or statin use in those with NAFLD/NASH at high CVD or HCC risk, alone and/or preferably in combination with each other or with ezetimibe, for the primary or secondary prevention of CVD.
Journal ArticleDOI
Expression of adiponectin and adiponectin receptors in human pituitary gland and brain.
Aristea Psilopanagioti,Helen Papadaki,Elena F. Kranioti,Theodore K. Alexandrides,John Varakis +4 more
TL;DR: Adiponectin and its receptors expression in human pituitary might indicate the existence of a local system, modulating endocrine axes and the presence of AdipoR1 in hypothalamus and NBM suggests that adip onectin may participate in central neural signaling pathways controlling energy homeostasis and higher brain functions.
Journal ArticleDOI
Developmental Expression of Receptors for Insulin, Insulin-like Growth Factor I (IGF-I), and IGF-II in Rat Skeletal Muscle*
TL;DR: The marked changes in number and distinct patterns of expression of the insulin, IGF-I, and IGF-II receptors in muscle during development are consistent with evolving functions of the three hormones determined by alterations in both receptor number and hormone concentrations.
