Aim. Obesity and insulin resistance are associated with nonalcoholic fatty liver disease
(NAFLD). It was recently reported that the ratio between levels of ghrelin and obestatin is …

Nonalcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD) is a disease caused by multiple factors and can
progress to liver cirrhosis and hepatocellular carcinoma. At present, the pathogenesis of …

By alternative splicing and posttranslational modification, ghrelin gene encodes multiple
products ranging from acyl-ghrelin, des-acyl-ghrelin, to obestatin. These products exhibit …

I have read the article about the changes in ghrelin and obestatin levels authored by Dr.
Gutierrez-Grobe, et al., 1 and published in Annals of Hepatology with great interest. Ghrelin …

BACKGROUND: Obestatin is a recently identified ghrelin gene product that was reported to
inhibit appetite and gastric motility in contrast to ghrelin. We investigated fasting obestatin …

BACKGROUND AND AIM: Ghrelin plays an important role in controlling the feeding and
nutritional states by signaling hypothalamic centers. However, the role of ghrelin in cirrhotic …

Aims: Altered blood levels of ghrelin and obestatin are associated with appetite, body weight
and diabetes, as well as the development of hypertension. Several studies have linked …

非酒精性脂肪性肝病(NAFLD) 在我国的发病率逐年上升, 成为仅次于病毒性肝炎的第二大肝病,
其发生与胰岛素抵抗及氧化应激密切相关, 是代谢综合征的重要组成之一. Ghrelin …
