[Thrilled to play a small part in it] Direct interaction with melanocortin receptors open more questions for satiety regulation. Maybe the answer is the Dawg in us all along #metabolism

A study, published in @ScienceMagazine highlights the value of pet dogs as a model for understanding obesity in both humans and animals. The study, led by PDN Academic @EllieRaffan, illustrates how genetic obesity risk leads to weight gain.

MRAP2 directly modulate hypothalamic GPCRs via overlapping mechanisms. Pathogenic variants of MRAP2 affect these mechanisms and provide insights into the pleiotropic metabolic effects associated with MRAP2 LoF.

🥳New YouTube animation🎬! A fun, little #GPCR dance+tunes 🔊 used as intro for my talks @ourANU and USyd, produced in #Blender3D using #MolNodes by @bradyajohnston & amazing tunes by @bluesocks81 https://t.co/hEDCsT89fx👏(1/2)

Great time at #ENDO2025 Glad to see such active @UoB_MSS participation! Amazing programme brought about by our own conference chair Niki Karavitaki! @UoBmedicalsci @unibirm_CMH @TheEndoSociety

Finally got this off the ground. GNAS variant GOF leading to constitutive activity linked to Cushing's. Not the first time this GNAS variant is spotted, but the first time characterised properly for its functional effect.

Where are we now with biased receptor signalling and what does it mean for therapeutic development. See our review here https://t.co/OIbtcz8JXU

What a way to end the #SfEBES2025 conference! Super happy with the @Soc_Endo award for best oral comms in the neuroendocrinology and pituitary session alongside other @UoB_MSS and @Bham_AT awardees #GPCR #melanocortin #metabolism

Had a great time at #SfEBES2025! Great scientific sessions and networking! And great @UoB_MSS and @unibirm_CMH participation! Well done to all award winners!
