Long-Term Weight Outcome After Bariatric Surgery in Patients with Melanocortin-4 Receptor Gene Variants: a Case-Control Study of 105 Patients

Mellody Cooiman et al.

Summary: This multicenter study compares the weight loss and regain outcomes in bariatric surgery patients with MC4R variants to matched controls. The study reveals that cases with MC4R variants show inferior weight outcomes after SG compared to RYGB, highlighting the need for lifelong management to prevent relapse.

Weight and Glycemic Control Outcomes of Bariatric Surgery and Pharmacotherapy in Patients With Melanocortin-4 Receptor Deficiency

Esphie Grace Fodra Fojas et al.

Summary: The study found that bariatric surgery and pharmacotherapy in patients with MC4R deficiency can lead to effective short-term weight loss and improved glycemic control, but long-term outcomes vary. It emphasizes the importance of ongoing monitoring and complementary therapeutic interventions.

Obesity treatment effect in Danish children and adolescents carryingMelanocortin-4 Receptormutations

Caecilie Trier et al.

Summary: In this study, MC4R mutations were screened in 1261 Danish children and adolescents, with 2.5% carrying damaging or unresolved mutations. Carriers of these mutations did not show a reduction in BMI standard deviation score after treatment, unlike noncarriers. Additionally, carriers experienced a decrease in HDL cholesterol, which was significantly different from the noncarriers' response.

The Role of the Noradrenergic System in Eating Disorders: A Systematic Review

Jacopo Pruccoli et al.

Summary: Noradrenaline plays a role in modulating feeding behavior and satiety, with conflicting evidence in its relationship with Eating Disorders (EDs). Preclinical studies suggest involvement of noradrenergic pathways in binge-like behaviors, while genetic and clinical studies show inconsistent findings on the absolute alterations in plasma NE values in patients with EDs. Pharmacological studies support the efficacy of noradrenaline-modulating therapies in treating EDs, but further research is needed to understand the potential of the noradrenergic system as a target for treatments.

The MC4R p.Ile269Asn mutation confers a high risk for type 2 diabetes in the Mexican population via obesity dependent and independent effects

Miguel Vazquez-Moreno et al.

Summary: The MC4R p.Ile269Asn mutation is associated with an increased risk of T2D in Mexican adults, even after adjusting for BMI. Mediation analysis showed that BMI accounts for 22.7% of the association between the mutation and T2D risk.

The genomic landscape of Mexican Indigenous populations brings insights into the peopling of the Americas

Humberto Garcia-Ortiz et al.

Summary: The genetic makeup of Indigenous populations in Mexico has been greatly influenced by geography and demographic history. A genome-wide analysis of 716 individuals from 60 recognized ethnic groups showed strong genetic structure influenced by geography and a decline in population size over the last 15-30 generations. Aridoamerican and Mesoamerican populations diverged around 4-9.9 ka, with a complex history of divergence among Indigenous populations in Mexico.

Weight Loss at First Month and Development of Tolerance as Possible Predictors of 30 mg Phentermine Efficacy at 6 Months

Hector Isaac Rocha-Gonzalez et al.

Summary: The study analyzed the impact of body weight loss in the first month of treatment with 30 mg phentermine and the development of tolerance to phentermine on its 6-month efficacy. It found that early development of tolerance to phentermine could decrease the effectiveness of weight loss over 6 months, while patients with greater weight loss in the first month had better weight loss outcomes at 6 months.

Sequencing of 640,000 exomes identifies GPR75 variants associated with protection from obesity

Parsa Akbari et al.

Summary: Large-scale human exome sequencing identified rare protein-coding variants with significant associations with body mass index (BMI), including G protein-coupled receptors. Protein-truncating variants in GPR75 were found to be associated with lower BMI and reduced risk of obesity, suggesting it as a potential therapeutic target for obesity.
