McCoull, W., Barton, P., Broo, A., Brown, A. J. H., Clarke, D. S., Coope, G., …Williams, E. J. (2013). Identification of pyrazolo-pyrimidinones as GHS-R1a antagonists and inverse agonists for the treatment of obesity. MedChemComm, 4(2), 456. https://doi.org/10.1039/c2md20340e

A pyrazolo-pyrimidinone based series of growth hormone secretagogue receptor type 1a (GHS-R1a) antagonists and inverse agonists were identified using a scaffold hop from known quinazolinone GHS-R1a modulators. Lipophilicity was reduced to decrease hE... Read More about Identification of pyrazolo-pyrimidinones as GHS-R1a antagonists and inverse agonists for the treatment of obesity.

Arcuate Nucleus Homeostatic Systems are Not Altered Immediately Prior to the Scheduled Consumption of Large, Binge-Type Meals of Palatable Solid or Liquid Diet in Rats and Mice (2012)
Journal Article
Bake, T., Duncan, J. S., Morgan, D. G. A., & Mercer, J. G. (2013). Arcuate Nucleus Homeostatic Systems are Not Altered Immediately Prior to the Scheduled Consumption of Large, Binge-Type Meals of Palatable Solid or Liquid Diet in Rats and Mice.

Meal feeding is a critical issue in the over-consumption of calories leading to human obesity. To investigate the mechanisms involved in the regulation of meal feeding in rodents, we studied a scheduled feeding regime that induces substantial food in...
