Are obese women less sensitive for the satiety effects of bombesin than lean women?
Infusion of bombesin, when combined with a gastric preload, inhibits food intake and increases satiety in lean women. Obese women are less sensitive for these bombesin induced satiety effects.
MLH1- or MSH2-deficient colorectal carcinomas of young patients exhibit pathological and molecular features similar to hereditary non-polyposis colorectal cancer. This suggests that MLH1 and MSH2 immunohistochemistry is valuable for detecting hereditary non-polyposis colorectal cancer in young patients.
