CUI: C0028754
Disease: Obesity
Obesity
0.100 Biomarker disease BEFREE Agonists of the glucagon-like peptide-1 (GLP-1) receptor and analogs of human amylin have been studied for almost two decades due to their therapeutic potential to treat diabetes mellitus and obesity. 29729352 2018
CUI: C0028754
Disease: Obesity
Obesity
0.100 Biomarker disease BEFREE In this study, we aimed to examine the expression of resistin (Retn), amylin (Iapp), and dopamine receptor domain 5 (Drd5) genes previously suggested to contribute to the pathogenesis of obesity, albeit controversially. 29936463 2018
CUI: C0028754
Disease: Obesity
Obesity
0.100 Biomarker disease BEFREE In particular, we are the first to show that obesity induces increases in peptide YY levels during the light cycle and amylin remains high throughout the light and dark cycle in obese animals. 29191090 2017
CUI: C0028754
Disease: Obesity
Obesity
0.100 AlteredExpression disease BEFREE The amylin hormone is overexpressed in individuals with pre-diabetic insulin resistance or obesity leading to amylin oligomerization and deposition in pancreatic islets. 26503000 2015
CUI: C0028754
Disease: Obesity
Obesity
0.100 Biomarker disease BEFREE Islet amyloid polypeptide (IAPP) and irisin have emerged as potential browning hormones that hold high potential to treat obesity. 26398307 2015
CUI: C0028754
Disease: Obesity
Obesity
0.100 Biomarker disease BEFREE Chronic hypersecretion of the pancreatic hormone amylin is common in humans with obesity or prediabetic insulin resistance and induces amylin aggregation and proteotoxicity in the pancreas. 25146704 2014
CUI: C0028754
Disease: Obesity
Obesity
0.100 Biomarker disease BEFREE Analogs of IAPP have been approved for the treatment of diabetes and are under investigation for the treatment of obesity. 23337872 2013
CUI: C0028754
Disease: Obesity
Obesity
0.100 Biomarker disease BEFREE Small amylin oligomers were even elevated in nonfailing hearts from overweight/obese patients, suggesting an early state of accumulation. 22275486 2012
CUI: C0028754
Disease: Obesity
Obesity
0.100 Biomarker disease BEFREE Leptin and the pancreatic hormones amylin and pancreatic polypeptide are being evaluated alone or in combination for the treatment of obesity, but their physiological regulation has not yet been fully elucidated. 18252898 2008
CUI: C0028754
Disease: Obesity

0.100 AlteredExpression disease BEFREE Estrogen can prevent or reverse obesity and diabetes in mice expressing human islet amyloid polypeptide. 12086946 2002
CUI: C0028754
Disease: Obesity
Obesity
0.100 AlteredExpression disease BEFREE In order to define the islet amyloid polypeptide (IAPP) levels in gestational diabetes mellitus (GDM) and their interrelationship with the insulin levels, we studied (1) the placental RNA from 10 women (5 with GDM and 5 normals) for IAPP expression by Northern blotting and (2) 10 women with GDM during a 100-gram oral glucose tolerance test and compared these with 11 normal women matched for obesity and age. 9251946 1997

Disease: Obesity
Obesity
0.100 Biomarker disease BEFREE The causal factors for IAPP fibrillogenesis are unknown but abnormal synthesis or overproduction could be involved: stimulation of B-cell secretion in NIDDM by obesity, hyperglycaemia or suphonylurea therapy may promote amyloidosis and further aggravate islet pathology. 8529518 1995
CUI: C0028754
