A number of peptides were isolated from pepsin hydrolyzate of cow k-casein by means of gel filtration on Sephadex G-50 and Biogel P-2, Dowex WX2 ion exchange chromatography in the pH step-wise gradient and dialysis using Sephadex G-10. The peptide material, after intravenous administration at a dose of 20 micrograms/kg of body mass, developed on electroencephalograms of various brain structures of starved rabbits the high amplitude, high frequent oscillations of electric potential corresponding to the effect of food satiation or to the action of cholecystokinin. Analysis of amino acid composition showed that the peptide fraction appears to be a fragment of para-k-casein moiety localized near one of Tyr residues containing in the protein molecule. Physiological effect of the peptide fraction was apparently related to regulation of satiation sense.

Background: Atrial fibrillation (AF) is the most prevalent arrhythmia encountered in clinical practice. Triglyceride glucose index (Tyg), a convenient evaluation variable for insulin resistance, has shown associations with adverse cardiovascular outcomes. However, studies on the Tyg index's predictive value for adverse prognosis in patients with AF without diabetes are lacking.

Background/objectives: Septic cardiomyopathy (SCM) is a severe cardiac complication of sepsis, characterized by cardiac dysfunction with limited effective treatments. This study aimed to identify repurposable drugs for SCM by integrated multi-omics and network analyses.

Methods: We generated a mouse model of SCM induced by lipopolysaccharide (LPS) and then obtained comprehensive metabolic and genetic data from SCM mouse hearts using ultra-performance liquid chromatography-tandem mass spectrometry (UPLC-MS/MS) and RNA sequencing (RNA-seq).

Cardiovascular-Kidney-Metabolic syndrome, introduced by the American Heart Association in 2023, represents a complex and interconnected spectrum of diseases driven by shared pathophysiological mechanisms. However, this framework notably excludes the liver-an organ fundamental to metabolic regulation. Building on this concept, Cardiovascular-Renal-Hepatic-Metabolic (CRHM) syndrome incorporates the liver's pivotal role in this interconnected disease spectrum, particularly through its involvement via metabolic dysfunction-associated steatotic liver disease (MASLD).
