Innovations in Obesity Treatment: Beyond Adipose Tissue Dysfunction
Obesity Reviews, EarlyView.Obesity drives chronic inflammation, insulin resistance, type 2 diabetes, and cancer development through adipocyte dysfunction. Addressing this multisystemic disorder requires integrated strategies beyond diet and exercise, such as thermogenesis activation via menthol or capsinoids and appetite control through GLP‐1/GIP agonists and neuromodulation to ...

Impact of systemic diseases on periodontal remodeling: Mechanisms, mediators, and clinical relevance
Periodontology 2000, EarlyView.Abstract Background Periodontal remodeling is a continuous, adaptive process essential for maintaining the structural and functional integrity of periodontal tissues. While external factors such as bacterial biofilm, excessive forces, and poor oral hygiene are recognized triggers of periodontal pathologies, they do not fully explain their persistent ...

Functionally distinct and selectively phosphorylated GPCR subpopulations co-exist in a single cell
Nature Communications, 2018 β2-adrenergic receptor (β2AR) can be phosphorylated by G protein receptor kinases and second messenger-dependent kinases. Here, the authors demonstrate that these phosphorylation events are specific to functionally distinct and spatially segregated ...

Repolarization adaptation to rapid change in heart rate in human models – a review
The Journal of Physiology, EarlyView.Abstract figure legend This review focuses on non‐invasive assessment of repolarization duration and dispersion (heterogeneity) adaptation to change in heart rate (HR). HR was increased incrementally by left atrial pacing during an electrophysiology (EP) study and by a bolus injection of atropine and in a step up/down fashion by repeated right atrial ...

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).

Gαi is required for carvedilol-induced β1 adrenergic receptor β-arrestin biased signaling
Nature Communications, 2017 β1 and β2 adrenergic receptors (ARs) are the predominant G protein-coupled receptor subtypes expressed in mammalian hearts. Here the authors describe a signaling mechanism where the biased agonist carvedilol converts β1AR from a classical Gαs-coupled to ...

Caenorhabditis elegans as an in vivo model system for human inherited primary arrhythmia syndromes
The Journal of Physiology, EarlyView.Abstract figure legend Most genes involved in inherited primary arrhythmia syndromes (IPAS) are conserved in Caenorhabditis elegans, where genetic manipulation enables functional characterization of variants, identification of regulatory proteins, and in vivo drug testing.

The Journal of Physiology, EarlyView.Abstract figure legend Schematic diagram illustrating the proposed pathway in which regulatory defects might occur in sympathetic neurons derived from hiPSC in catecholaminergic polymorphic ventricular tachycardia (CPVT). Specifically, enhanced calcium transients appeared to derive from three sources: enhanced membrane excitability (due to loss of ...
