Preliminary study on the effect of parenteral naloxone, alone and in association with calcium gluconate, on bone healing in an ovine "drill hole" model system

open access: yesBMC Musculoskeletal Disorders, 2007
Background Several diseases affect bone healing and physiology. Many drugs that are commonly used in orthopaedics as "analgesics" or anti-inflammatory agents impair bone healing.

Step into action: how reminders shape engagement in fitness apps

open access: yesEconomica, Volume 93, Issue 372, Page 1225-1259, October 2026.
Abstract Regular exercise offers well‐documented health benefits, and mobile applications are increasingly used to promote physical activity. In this study, we conduct a large‐scale randomized controlled trial with 20,187 users of the WeWard app in France to evaluate the effectiveness of different message framings and intervention durations on app ...

The Skin‐Lightening Efficacy and Mechanisms of Botanical Extracts: A Comprehensive Review

open access: yesJournal of Cosmetic Dermatology, Volume 25, Issue 10, October 2026.
ABSTRACT Background Skin pigmentation is regulated by a complex network involving melanogenesis, melanosome transfer, oxidative stress, environmental stimuli, and epidermal turnover. Botanical extracts and phytochemicals have attracted increasing interest as potential skin‐lightening agents. This review evaluates their efficacy, mechanisms, and safety.

Proopiomelanocortin (POMC)–β‐Endorphin System in the Rat Colon: Expression, Up Regulation by Stress, and Correlation With Stress‐Induced Visceral Analgesia

open access: yesNeurogastroenterology &Motility, Volume 38, Issue 10, October 2026.
This study identified a functional proopiomelanocortin–β‐endorphin system in the rat colon. Peripheral CRF and repeated water avoidance stress increased colonic POMC expression, which was associated with reduced visceral pain. These findings suggest that, outside the pituitary, a CRF‐ and stress‐sensitive enteric POMC–β‐endorphin system may help ...

TRPV4/NCX1 coupling regulates Ca2+‐dependent cholecystokinin secretion from enteroendocrine cells to involve the pathogenesis of irritable bowel syndrome‐diarrhea in male mice

open access: yesPhysiological Reports, Volume 14, Issue 20, October 2026.
ACh regulates the increase of intracellular Ca2+ signaling through TRPV4/NCX1 coupling, inducing CCK release, and participates in the pathogenesis of IBS‐D. Abstract Although stress can stimulate the vagus nerve via the brain–gut axis to induce enterohormone secretion from enteroendocrine cells (EECs), little is currently known about the roles of ion ...

Electroacupuncture ameliorates inflammatory pain through CB2 receptor-dependent activation of the AMPK signaling pathway

open access: yesChinese Medicine
Background Chronic inflammatory pain is a pervasive condition, and electroacupuncture (EA) is an effective treatment, but its mechanisms are not fully understood. AMP-activated protein kinase (AMPK), a key energy sensor, is involved in pain relief and EA’

Smoking Abstinence Elicits Hyperalgesia: Neural Mechanism, Clinical Implications, and Pharmacological Managements

open access: yesCNS Neuroscience &Therapeutics, Volume 32, Issue 9, September 2026.
The cycle between nicotine use and pain modulation. Cigarette smoking leads to nicotine entering the body, which binds to nicotinic acetylcholine receptors (nAChRs) in the brain, triggering the release of different neurotransmitters, including dopamine (DA), norepinephrine (NE), serotonin (5‐HT), and GABA.

Slaughter of cattle without stunning: Questions related to pain, stress and endorphins

open access: yes
International audienceEEG studies have suggested that cattle perceive pain when bled without stunning. The present study on bleeding without stunning, compared cows that had received a local anaesthetic on the site of the bleeding cut (Lurocaine; Luro ...
