Metformin Boosts Intestinal Lipid Sensing via GIP to Suppress Feeding An acute increase of lipids in the upper small intestine (USI) of rodents and humans triggers lipid-sensing pathways to reduce food intake. However, USI li

Here Tony Lam and colleagues @uhnresearch.ca identify that lipid sensing in HFD-fed rats is enhanced by metformin to trigger an endocrine GIP to NTS GIPR axis to reduce food intake unveiling potential targets to enhance GIP action and reduce weight in #obesity diabetesjournals.org/diabetes/art...

📢 New speaker announced!

We're delighted Professor Mirela Delibegovic will speak at #BSNBradford2025 in Symposium 4 Neuroendocrine links to dementia on:

Methionine Restriction in Regulation of Metabolic Health and Cognitive Dysfunction

Hindbrain octadecaneuropeptide gliotransmission as a therapeutic target for energy balance control without nausea or emesis Dorsal vagal complex action of the glucose-responsive gliotransmitter octadecaneuropeptide improves body weight and systemic glucoregulation.

Exciting preclinical studies demonstrate that the Glia-derived peptide Octadecaneuropeptide may be valuable for targeting weight and glycemic control via the hindbrain without eliciting the common treatment side effects seen with GLP-1 receptor agonists www.science.org/doi/10.1126/...?

Thanks for spreading the word about our neuroendocrine initiatives from the INF. 🤩🙏🏻 Please take a read. Hope to see everyone at the #ICN2026 in Nagoya Japan July 26-29 2026. 🧠🌟 @infneuroendo.bsky.social @paneuroendo.bsky.social @bsneuroendo.bsky.social
