Peripheral non-viral MIDGE vector-driven delivery of β-endorphin in inflammatory pain

Molecular Pain, 2009
Background Leukocytes infiltrating inflamed tissue produce and release opioid peptides such as β-endorphin, which activate opioid receptors on peripheral terminals of sensory nerves resulting in analgesia.

Scalp Dysesthesia: Emerging Pathophysiologic Insights and Therapeutic Implications

International Journal of Dermatology, EarlyView.
Scalp dysesthesia is a chronic condition diagnosed through exclusion. This scoping review synthesized data from 59 patients to identify recurrent clinical features, comorbidities, and management strategies that may support earlier diagnosis. Emerging patterns suggest that neuronal sensitization may underlie common symptoms.

Use of Platelet‐Rich Fibrin (PRF) on Palatal Wound Healing: A Narrative Review With Clinical Recommendations

Journal of Periodontal Research, EarlyView.
Based on the available evidence, the application of platelet‐rich fibrin (PRF) following free gingival graft (FGG) and subepithelial connective tissue graft (SCTG) harvesting appears to be a promising approach for enhancing wound healing, minimizing postoperative complications, and reducing analgesic consumption. ABSTRACT This clinical narrative review

Potential health benefits of cold‐water immersion: the central role of PGC‐1α

The Journal of Physiology, EarlyView.
Abstract figure legend Cold‐water immersion (CWI) elicits autonomic, somato‐motoric (shivering thermogenesis), endocrine and metabolic, sensory transduction, and local biophysical effects that may converge on the transcriptional co‐activator PGC‐1α (centre).

Β-Endorphin expression in the mouse retina

, 2010
Evidence showing expression of endogenous opioids in the mammalian retina is sparse. In the present study we examined a transgenic mouse line expressing an obligate dimerized form of Discosoma red fluorescent protein (DsRed) under the control of the pro ...

The three-dimensional structure of human $β$-endorphin amyloid fibrils

, 2020
In the pituitary gland, hormones are stored in a functional amyloid state within acidic secretory granules before they are released into the blood. To gain a detailed understanding of the structure–function relationship of amyloids in hormone secretion ...

From Prevention to Healthy Longevity: Evaluating the Multi‐Systemic Effects of Physical Activity and Lifestyle Behaviours in Women

Reproductive, Female and Child Health, Volume 5, Issue 4, December 2026.
ABSTRACT Purpose Despite spending more on healthcare than any other high‐income nation, the United States faces comparatively poor life expectancy outcomes, primarily due to non‐compliance with preventable and modifiable lifestyle behaviours. This review evaluates the multi‐systemic benefits of physical activity, exercise, diet, weight management and ...
