Presynaptic selectivity of a ligand for serotonin 1A receptors revealed by in vivo PET assays of rat brain.

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2012
A novel investigational antidepressant with high affinity for the serotonin transporter and the serotonin 1A (5-HT(1A)) receptor, called Wf-516 (structural formula: (2S)-1-[4-(3,4-dichlorophenyl)piperidin-1-yl]-3-[2-(5-methyl-1,3,4-oxadiazol-2-yl)benzo[b]

Keratin–Melanin Complexation Enables Robust, Delamination‐Resistant Feather‐Inspired Structural Color Coatings for Flexible and Curved Substrates

open access: yesAdvanced Materials Interfaces, EarlyView.
Providing mechanically robust structural color coating technology inspired by cooperative interactions in nature. The spatial arrangement of melanin particles within the keratin matrix generates angle‐independent structural colors. Diverse functional groups in keratin and melanin contribute to interparticle and substrate adhesion, resulting in the ...

SERAAK2 as a Serotonin Receptor Ligand: Structural and Pharmacological In Vitro and In Vivo Evaluation

open access: yesMolecules
Serotonin receptors, in particular 5-HT1A and 5-HT2A receptors, are important molecular targets for the central nervous system (CNS) disorders, such as schizophrenia, depression, anxiety disorders, memory deficits, and many others.

Soft Robotic Excretory Care Simulator for Nursing Education: Functional and Perceptual Biomimetics Approach

open access: yesAdvanced Robotics Research, EarlyView.
A soft robotic simulator is developed to replicate the digital removal of feces (DRF), a sensitive yet essential nursing procedure. Integrating soft actuators, sensors, and a realistic rectal model, the simulator balances functional fidelity with perceptual realism. Engineering evaluations and nurse feedback confirm its potential to enhance training in

From Rigid to Soft Robotic Approaches for Neuroendoscopy

open access: yesAdvanced Robotics Research, EarlyView.
Robotic assistance has had minimal impact on deep intraventricular surgeries, where small‐scale, precision, and reduced invasiveness can contribute to improved patient outcomes. Emerging technologies in rigid, soft, and hybrid robotics are reviewed to identify the most promising mechanisms for deep brain navigation in addition to an attempt to identify

IFN-γ inhibits 5-HT-induced melanin biosynthesis via downregulation of 5-HT receptors in vivo/in vitro

open access: yesJournal of Pharmacological Sciences, 2019
Hypopigmentation disorders, such as vitiligo, are difficult for treatment due to complicated pathogenesis, resulting from multiple factors including neural and immune elements. 5-HT and IFN-γ both play crucial roles in these skin diseases.

Atomic Tuning of Metal‐Support Interactions for Pathway‐Selective CO2 Photoreduction on TiO2

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
Single‐atom Fe and Cu catalysts anchored on TiO2 steer photocatalytic CO2 reduction toward distinct pathways. Fe sites favor rapid *CO desorption and selective CO formation, whereas Cu sites stabilize *CHO intermediates, enabling deep reduction and C─C coupling. Combined spectroscopy and DFT calculations reveal how metal–support interactions and oxygen

Nitroso-oxidative stress after activation of 5-HT4 receptors under conditions of colitis in rats

open access: yesCurrent Issues in Pharmacy and Medical Sciences, 2019
Serotonin (5-hydroxytryptamine, 5-HT) plays an important role in the regulation of the functioning of the gastrointestinal tract, including that of the colon. The response of smooth muscles, blood vessels and colon mucosa (CM) to 5-HT is realized through

Activity-dependent serotonergic excitation of callosal projection neurons in the mouse prefrontal cortex

open access: yesFrontiers in Neural Circuits, 2014
Layer 5 pyramidal neurons (L5PNs) in the mouse prefrontal cortex respond to serotonin (5-HT) according to their long-distance axonal projections; 5-HT1A (1A) receptors mediate inhibitory responses in corticopontine (CPn) L5PNs, while 5-HT2A (2A ...
