Metabolic syndrome (MetS) is defined as abdominal central obesity, atherogenic
dyslipidemia, insulin resistance, glucose intolerance and hypertension. The rapid increasing …

A functional role of the neuropeptide galanin, executed through the three G-protein coupled
receptor subtypes GAL₁₋ ₃, has been demonstrated in many biological systems and …

The expression of the galanin gene (GAL) in the paraventricular nucleus (PVN) and in the
amygdala of higher vertebrates suggests the requirement for highly conserved, but …

Seeing that galanin increases animal body weight on the conditions of inhibiting insulin
secretion and animals with metabolic disorder of galanin easily suffer from diabetes, we …

Although galanin has been shown to increase insulin sensitivity in skeletal muscle of rats,
there is no literature available about the effect of galanin on Glucose Transporter 4 (GLUT4) …

Although a significantly higher level of plasma galanin was found in patients with gestational
diabetes mellitus (GDM) in our previous study, it is unknown whether plasma galanin is …

Although recent results of our and other studies have showed that galanin (GAL) is an
antidiabetic and anti-inflammatory neuropeptide, the molecular mechanism how central GAL …

Defective autophagy-induced intracellular lipid degradation is causally associated with non-
alcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD) development. Therefore, agents that can restore …

The aim of this study is to investigate whether galanin (GAL) central receptors are involved
in regulation of insulin resistance. To test it, a GAL antagonist, M35 was …
