New strategic insights into managing fungal biofilms [PDF]

open access: yes, 2015
Fungal infections have dramatically increased in the last decades in parallel with an increase of populations with impaired immunity, resulting from medical conditions such as cancer, transplantation or other chronic diseases.

Bidirectional Interaction Between the Brain and Bone in Traumatic Brain Injury

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
Traumatic brain injury (TBI) disrupts the blood–brain barrier and activates neuroimmune responses, causing metabolic disturbances and long‐term bone mass loss. Concurrent fractures accelerate healing and enhance osteogenesis but disrupt regulatory mechanisms, leading to altered bone dynamics and exacerbating neuroinflammation, complicating recovery ...

Discoveries and future significance of research into amyloid-beta/α7-containing nicotinic acetylcholine receptor (nAChR) interactions

open access: yesPharmacological Research, 2023
Initiated by findings that Alzheimer’s disease is associated with a profound loss of cholinergic markers in human brain, decades of studies have examined the interactions between specific subtypes of nicotinic acetylcholine receptors and amyloid-β ...

Mutations in M2 alter the selectivity of the mouse nicotinic acetylcholine receptor for organic and alkali metal cations [PDF]

open access: yes, 1992
We measured the permeability ratios (PX/PNa) of 3 wild-type, 1 hybrid, 2 subunit-deficient, and 22 mutant nicotinic receptors expressed in Xenopus oocytes for alkali metal and organic cations using shifts in the bi-ionic reversal potential of the ...

Mammalian nicotinic acetylcholine receptors: from structure to function.

open access: yesPhysiological Reviews, 2009
The classical studies of nicotine by Langley at the turn of the 20th century introduced the concept of a "receptive substance," from which the idea of a "receptor" came to light.

Targeted Intervention Strategies for Maternal–Offspring Transmission of Christensenellaceae in Pigs via a Deep Learning Model

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
This study deciphers maternal‐driven microbial transmission in pigs using a deep learning model (maternal–offspring microbial transmission model), identifying Christensenellaceae R‐7 group as a key transmitted taxon. Filtered galacto‐oligosaccharides‐targeted Christensenellaceae R‐7 group alters offspring microbial functions via maternal ...

Cholesterol modulates acetylcholine receptor diffusion by tuning confinement sojourns and nanocluster stability [PDF]

open access: yes, 2018
Translational motion of neurotransmitter receptors is key for determining receptor number at the synapse and hence, synaptic efficacy. We combine live-cell STORM superresolution microscopy of nicotinic acetylcholine receptor (nAChR) with single-particle ...

Sustained‐Release Photothermal Microneedles for Postoperative Incisional Analgesia and Wound Healing via Hydrogen Therapy

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
This study introduces a novel transdermal delivery system of molecular hydrogen for postoperative pain relief and wound healing. This system utilizes sustained‐release photothermal microneedles to integrate hydrogen‐releasing nanoparticles and temperature‐responsive microspheres, achieving acid‐responsive hydrogen release and controlled drug release ...

The heartbreak of depression: 'Psycho-cardiac' coupling in myocardial infarction [PDF]

open access: yes, 2017
Ample evidence identifies strong links between major depressive disorder (MDD) and both risk of ischemic or coronary heart disease (CHD) and resultant morbidity and mortality. The molecular mechanistic bases of these linkages are poorly defined. Systemic
