DOI: 10.1007/s00384-020-03507-z
Abstract: Background Strictureplasty (SPX) conserves bowel length and minimizes the risk of developing short bowel syndrome in patients undergoing surgery for Crohn’s disease (CD). However, SPX may be associated with a higher risk of recurrence compared… read more here.

DOI: 10.1016/j.neuroscience.2019.10.028
Abstract: Spexin (SPX) is a novel satiety factor that putatively binds the galanin receptors R2 and R3 (GalR2/R3). SPX reduces body weight, and circulating SPX is decreased in obesity. It is unknown how SPX and its… read more here.

DOI: 10.1111/mmi.14499
Abstract: Spx is a major regulator of stress responses in Firmicutes. In Streptococcus mutans, two Spx homologues, SpxA1 and SpxA2, were identified as mediators of oxidative stress responses but the regulatory circuits controlling their levels and… read more here.
