Ghrelin's role as a major regulator of appetite and its other functions in neuroendocrinology.
Ghrelin is a circulating growth-hormone-releasing and appetite-inducing brain-gut peptide. It is a known natural ligand of the growth hormone secretagogue receptor (GHS-R). Ghrelin is acylated on its serine 3 residue by ghrelin O-acyltransferase (GOAT). The acylation is essential for its orexigenic...
