Unless the newsletter has instructions for milking the venom out of Gila monsters, isolating and purifying the components, and then chemically and structurally modifying polypeptide hormones, then I’d say store bought is just fine

Congratulations to Shrey Parikh from Rancho Cucamonga, California, for winning the Scripps National Spelling Bee!

Shrey’s winning word was bromocriptine, a polypeptide alkaloid that acts like dopamine. Hopefully, his win had a similar effect on him!

Now that we've gendered Estrogen and Testosterone as female and male respectively I say we need to gender the other hormones too. Dopamine? Non-binary. Insulin? It's gender fluid, baybee. Gastric Inhibitory Polypeptide? that's right, that's an agender hormone

Slightly overdue article highlight!

In PNAS, we use smFRET to reveal how polypeptide release factor 2 (RF2) undergoes a cascade of structural changes to catalyze polypeptide release during translation termination and ArfA-mediated ribosome rescue.

Glucose-Dependent Insulinotropic Polypeptide Receptors Are Expressed in the Lateral Septum and Reduce Electrically-Evoked Dopamine Release as well as the Ability of Cocaine to Increase Extracellular Dopamine
Tirzepatide, a dual agonist of the glucagon-like peptide 1 receptor (GLP-1R) and glucose-dependent insulinotropic polypeptide receptor (GIPR), represents a new class of medication for obesity and type II diabetes treatment. Using laboratory mice, we show that GIPRs are present in the lateral septum (LS) in cells also expressing GLP-1R, particularly in the dorsolateral LS. Likewise, we show the coexpression of the dopamine (DA) D2 receptor (DRD2) in LS cells with GLP-1R in both the dorsolateral and intermediate portions of the LS. Using fast-scan cyclic voltammetry, we demonstrate that systemic GLP-1R or GIPR agonist treatment reduces both electrically evoked DA release in the LS and the ability of cocaine to increase extracellular DA levels. These data unveil a new central role for GIPR signaling and identify a potentially important cell type expressing both GLP-1R and GIPR upon which tirzepatide or other dual agonists may modulate DA homeostasis in the brain.
