Gallic Acid‐Mediated Enhancement of Diazepam‐Induced Sedation via GABAA Receptor Modulation: In Vivo and In Silico Evaluation

Food Science &Nutrition, Volume 14, Issue 6, June 2026.
Gallic acid (GA) dose‐dependently reduced sleep latency and prolonged sleep duration in thiopental sodium‐induced mice, with synergistic effects when combined with diazepam. Molecular docking revealed GA's higher binding affinity (−9.8 kcal/mol) to GABAA receptor (α1 and β2 subunits) than diazepam (−8.4 kcal/mol), suggesting GABAergic potential ...

White Matter Dysfunction and Neurotransmitter Basis Underlying the Freezing of Gait in Parkinson's Disease

iNew Medicine, Volume 2, Issue 2, June 2026.
In the freezing of gait in Parkinson's disease, white matter shows decreased local activity but increased functional connectivity. These distinct dysfunctions are uniquely associated with specific neurotransmitter systems (GABA, dopamine, etc.), mapping a new neurochemical basis for this debilitating symptom. ABSTRACT Freezing of gait (FOG) is a severe

Two Distinct Serotonin Receptors Co-mediate Non-photic Signals to the Circadian Clock

Journal of Pharmacological Sciences, 2013
Several lines of evidence indicate that serotonin type 7 (5-HT7) receptors play a critical role for non-photic resetting of the mammalian circadian clock; however, the contributions of other types of 5-HT receptors to non-photic entrainment are not yet ...

Cannabidiol Protects Against 1‐Methyl‐4‐Phenylpyridinium and Manganese‐Induced Neurotoxicity via Nod‐Like Receptor Protein 3 Inflammasome Suppression

Journal of Biochemical and Molecular Toxicology, Volume 40, Issue 6, June 2026.
CBD oil exhibits neuroprotective effects in Parkinson's disease models by inhibiting NLRP3 inflammasome activation. It preserves dopamine levels and reduces α‐synuclein accumulation, suggesting its potential as a therapeutic strategy against neuroinflammation and neurodegeneration.

Comparison of High and Low Affinity Serotonin 1A Receptors by PET In Vivo in Nonhuman Primates

Journal of Pharmacological Sciences, 2012
Serotonin (5-HT) 1A receptors exist in high and low affinity states. Agonist ligands bind preferentially to the high affinity state receptors, providing a more functionally relevant measure than antagonist binding.

Efficacy and safety of 2–4 mg brexpiprazole in the management of schizophrenia: A systematic review and meta‐analysis

Psychiatry and Clinical Neurosciences Reports, Volume 5, Issue 2, June 2026.
This graphical summary illustrates the efficacy and safety of brexpiprazole (2–4 mg) in patients with schizophrenia. The meta‐analysis demonstrates significant improvement in clinical outcomes, with reductions in Positive and Negative Syndrome Scale (PANSS) and Clinical Global Impression ‐ Severity scale (CGI‐S) scores, indicating better symptom ...

Pharmacologic MRI Brain Imaging Studies of Serotonin 5‐HT1 Receptor Agonists in Awake Mice

Pharmacology Research &Perspectives, Volume 14, Issue 3, June 2026.
ABSTRACT Serotonin (5‐hydroxytryptamine, 5‐HT) type‐1 G protein‐coupled receptors are expressed throughout the central nervous system. 5‐HT1AR activation is the putative mechanism of approved drugs for generalized anxiety disorder and major depressive disorder and is being studied in the treatment of autism and neurological disorders.

Pharmacological Characterization of 5-HT1A Autoreceptor-Coupled GIRK Channels in Rat Dorsal Raphe 5-HT Neurons.

PLoS ONE, 2015
G protein-activated inwardly rectifying potassium (GIRK) channels in 5-HT neurons are assumed to be principal effectors of 5-hydroxytryptamine 1A (5-HT1A) autoreceptors, but their pharmacology, subunit composition and the role in regulation of 5-HT ...

The Antipsychotic Aripiprazole Induces Cytotoxicity in Bladder Cancer Cells While Preserving Urothelial and Bladder Function

Pharmacology Research &Perspectives, Volume 14, Issue 3, June 2026.
Current bladder cancer therapies can cause toxicity and bladder dysfunction. Brief intravesical‐like aripiprazole exposure reduced bladder cancer cell viability and was associated with redox stress and caspase‐3 activation, while ex vivo findings suggested preserved bladder structure and function, warranting further investigation as a potential ...
