Monoaminergic Networks of Cognitive and Behavioral Symptoms in Early Parkinson's Disease
Abstract Background Parkinson's disease (PD) is associated with several behavioral and cognitive symptoms, the neurobiological background of which is not yet fully understood. Objectives The aim was to investigate the association between monoamine function and four specific nonmotor symptoms in early PD using the Parkinson's Progression Markers ...

Targeting protein–protein interactions within the cyclic AMP signaling system as a therapeutic strategy for cardiovascular disease [PDF]
The cAMP signaling system can trigger precise physiological cellular responses that depend on the fidelity of many protein–protein interactions, which act to bring together signaling intermediates at defined locations within cells.

Light‐Based Molecular Tools to Precisely Monitor and Operate β‐Adrenoceptors
ABSTRACT β‐Adrenoceptors are important G protein–coupled receptors involved in cardiovascular, metabolic, and neurological regulation. To study their function with high precision, light‐based molecular tools have been developed offering precise spatiotemporal control.

ABSTRACT Purpose Vibegron was associated with improvements in efficacy versus placebo and was well tolerated in men with overactive bladder (OAB) on pharmacotherapy for benign prostatic hyperplasia (BPH) in the COURAGE trial (NCT03902080). Additional safety, bladder function, and urodynamics data are provided.

Ractopamine HCl improved cardiac hypertrophy but not poor growth, metabolic inefficiency, or greater white blood cells associated with heat stress in concentrate-fed lambs [PDF]
Heat stress decreases livestock performance and well-being (Hahn, 1999; Nienaber and Hahn, 2007), causes metabolic dysfunction that decreases growth efficiency (O’Brien et al., 2010), and alters cardiovascular function (Crandall et al., 2008). Each year,

Signal Transduction and Pathogenic Modifications at the Melanocortin-4 Receptor: A Structural Perspective [PDF]
The melanocortin-4 receptor (MC4R) can be endogenously activated by binding of melanocyte-stimulating hormones (MSH), which mediates anorexigenic effects. In contrast, the agouti-related peptide (AgRP) acts as an endogenous inverse agonist and suppresses

Nanodelivery of a functional membrane receptor to manipulate cellular phenotype. [PDF]
Modification of membrane receptor makeup is one of the most efficient ways to control input-output signals but is usually achieved by expressing DNA or RNA-encoded proteins or by using other genome-editing methods, which can be technically challenging ...
