Sodium butyrate ameliorates renal tubular lipid accumulation through a protein phosphatase 2A/transcription factor EB axis in diabetic nephropathy

open access: yesBritish Journal of Pharmacology, EarlyView.
Abstract Background and Purpose Extensive evidence indicates that lipid accumulation causes renal tubular injury, which further contributes to diabetic nephropathy (DN) progression. Short‐chain fatty acids (SCFAs) play an important role in the maintenance of cellular metabolic health.

Molecular basis for a pore block of Tentonin 3 expressed in HEK293 cells by a conopeptide, NMB‐1

open access: yesBritish Journal of Pharmacology, EarlyView.
Background and Purpose Tentonin 3 (TTN3/TMEM150C) is a mechanosensitive ion channel that plays critical roles in mechanotransduction processes. TTN3 forms a tetramer with a predicted rectangular shape and a central pore. A conotoxin ρ‐TIA and its synthetic analog, noxious mechanosensation blocker 1 (NMB‐1), were initially developed to inhibit slowly ...

Critical role of the mast cell/tryptase/PAR2 axis in anastrozole‐induced pain

open access: yesBritish Journal of Pharmacology, EarlyView.
Abstract Background and Purpose Anastrozole, an aromatase inhibitor, is used to treat postmenopausal women with hormone receptor‐positive breast cancer, but also induces musculoskeletal pain and can lead to therapeutic regimen suspension. Aromatase inhibitors promote the release of pro‐inflammatory substances from sensitised nerve fibres, which might ...

A PK/PD study on antihyperalgesia by an α2/3‐GABAA receptor PAM in mice: Lack of tolerance liability and potential involvement of γ1‐GABAA receptors

open access: yesBritish Journal of Pharmacology, EarlyView.
Abstract Background and Purpose GABAA receptors (GABAARs) are heteropentameric ion channels that control almost all CNS functions, including spinal nociception. Most GABAARs contain a γ2 subunit but differ in their α and β subunit composition. TPA023B is an α2/α3 subtype selective, non‐sedative, positive allosteric modulator (PAM) with antihyperalgesic

Profiling of HCAR1 signalling reveals Gαi/o and Gαs activation without β‐arrestin recruitment and the discovery of an allosteric agonist

open access: yesBritish Journal of Pharmacology, EarlyView.
Abstract Background and Purpose Lactate, historically viewed as a metabolic by‐product, has emerged as a signalling molecule via the G protein–coupled receptor Hydroxycarboxylic Acid Receptor 1 (HCAR1). The receptor is primarily expressed in adipocytes but also found in various other tissues.
