Elevated total plasma-adiponectin is stable over time in young women with bulimia nervosa
Syk M, Ramklint M, Fredriksson R, Ekselius L, Cunningham J
Eur Psychiatry . 2017 Jan; 41:30-36. PMID: 28049078
Background: Bulimia nervosa (BN) is characterized by dysregulated eating behaviour and present data suggest adipokines may regulate food intake. We investigated a possible association between BN and adipokine levels and...

Oxytocin Acting in the Nucleus Accumbens Core Decreases Food Intake
Herisson F, Waas J, Fredriksson R, Schioth H, Levine A, Olszewski P
J Neuroendocrinol . 2016 Apr; 28(4). PMID: 27114001
Central oxytocin (OT) promotes feeding termination in response to homeostatic challenges, such as excessive stomach distension, salt loading and toxicity. OT has also been proposed to affect feeding reward by...

The impact of intronic single nucleotide polymorphisms and ethnic diversity for studies on the obesity gene FTO
Jacobsson J, Schioth H, Fredriksson R
Obes Rev . 2012 Aug; 13(12):1096-109. PMID: 22931202
In 2007, the first common genetic variants were identified, which undoubtedly affect our susceptibility to obesity. These variants are located in the fat mass and obesity-associated gene FTO. Since then,...

Characterization of the neuropeptide Y system in the frog Silurana tropicalis (Pipidae): three peptides and six receptor subtypes
Sundstrom G, Xu B, Larsson T, Heldin J, Bergqvist C, Fredriksson R, et al.
Gen Comp Endocrinol . 2012 May; 177(3):322-31. PMID: 22565163
Neuropeptide Y and its related peptides PYY and PP (pancreatic polypeptide) are involved in feeding behavior, regulation of the pituitary and the gastrointestinal tract, and numerous other functions. The peptides...

Determination of the obesity-associated gene variants within the entire FTO gene by ultra-deep targeted sequencing in obese and lean children
Sallman Almen M, Rask-Andersen M, Jacobsson J, Ameur A, Kalnina I, Moschonis G, et al.
Int J Obes (Lond) . 2012 Apr; 37(3):424-31. PMID: 22531089
Background: The Fat mass and obesity-associated gene (FTO) was the first gene reliably associated with body mass index in genome-wide association studies on a population level. At present, the genetic...

Exposure to subliminal arousing stimuli induces robust activation in the amygdala, hippocampus, anterior cingulate, insular cortex and primary visual cortex: a systematic meta-analysis of fMRI studies
Brooks S, Savov V, Allzen E, Benedict C, Fredriksson R, Schioth H
Neuroimage . 2011 Oct; 59(3):2962-73. PMID: 22001789
Functional Magnetic Resonance Imaging (fMRI) demonstrates that the subliminal presentation of arousing stimuli can activate subcortical brain regions independently of consciousness-generating top-down cortical modulation loops. Delineating these processes may elucidate...

Genetic variants near the MGAT1 gene are associated with body weight, BMI and fatty acid metabolism among adults and children
Jacobsson J, Rask-Andersen M, Riserus U, Moschonis G, Koumpitski A, Chrousos G, et al.
Int J Obes (Lond) . 2011 Feb; 36(1):119-29. PMID: 21304485
Objective: Recently a genome-wide association analysis from five European populations identified a polymorphism located downstream of the mannosyl-(α-1,3)-glycoprotein-β-1,2-N-acetylglucosaminyltransferase (MGAT1) gene that was associated with body-weight. In the present study, associations...

Associations between severity of obesity in childhood and adolescence, obesity onset and parental BMI: a longitudinal cohort study
Svensson V, Jacobsson J, Fredriksson R, Danielsson P, Sobko T, Schioth H, et al.
Int J Obes (Lond) . 2010 Sep; 35(1):46-52. PMID: 20856258
Objective: To explore the relationship between severity of obesity at age 7 and age 15, age at onset of obesity, and parental body mass index (BMI) in obese children and...

Inverse association of high-fat diet preference and anxiety-like behavior: a putative role for urocortin 2
Alsio J, Roman E, Olszewski P, Jonsson P, Fredriksson R, Levine A, et al.
Genes Brain Behav . 2008 Dec; 8(2):193-202. PMID: 19077174
The aim of this study was to investigate whether the preference for a palatable high-fat diet (HFD) is associated with response to novelty and with anxiety-like behavior in rats and...

Novel genetic variant in FTO influences insulin levels and insulin resistance in severely obese children and adolescents
Jacobsson J, Klovins J, Kapa I, Danielsson P, Svensson V, Ridderstrale M, et al.
Int J Obes (Lond) . 2008 Sep; 32(11):1730-5. PMID: 18794893
Background: The global prevalence of obesity and overweight is increasing rapidly among adults as well as among children and adolescents. Recent genome-wide association studies have provided strong support for association...
