Prouroguanylin is a gastrointestinal paracrine signal and prohormone that is secreted after nutrient ingestion. In this issue of the JCI, Valentino et al. show that prouroguanylin is converted to uroguanylin in the CNS, which can activate guanylyl cyclase 2C (GUCY2C)

Pediatric and developmental pathology : the official journal of the Society for Pediatric Pathology and the Paediatric Pathology Society, 21(3), 285-295 (2017-08-30)
Gastrointestinal tract-secreted satiety hormones play a significant role in one of the largest health-care challenges for children and adults, obesity. Recent studies in mice identified a novel role for uroguanylin, the endogenous intestinal hormone that binds guanylyl cyclase C (GUCY2C)
Yuleima Diaz et al.
Infection and immunity, 87(7) (2019-05-08)
Infection with enterotoxigenic Escherichia coli (ETEC) is a common cause of childhood diarrhea in low- and middle-income countries, as well as of diarrhea among travelers to these countries. In children, ETEC strains secreting the heat-stable toxin (ST) are the most

Physiology & behavior, 227, 113150-113150 (2020-08-26)
Animals use social communication to learn important information from conspecifics that can guide appropriate behavioral choices. For example, during the social transmission of food preference (STFP), conspecific semiochemicals detected by mouse olfactory sensory neurons (OSNs) expressing the atypical olfactory receptor

The Journal of clinical investigation, 121(9), 3578-3588 (2011-08-26)
Intestinal enteroendocrine cells are critical to central regulation of caloric consumption, since they activate hypothalamic circuits that decrease appetite and thereby restrict meal size by secreting hormones in response to nutrients in the gut. Although guanylyl cyclase and downstream cGMP
