Dualsteric and dual‐acting modulation of muscarinic receptors by antagonist KH‐5

British Journal of Pharmacology, EarlyView.
Abstract Background and purpose Muscarinic acetylcholine receptors are key therapeutic targets, and ligands engaging both orthosteric and allosteric sites may offer improved selectivity and efficacy. Here, we investigated whether the muscarinic antagonist KH‐5 acts as a dualsteric antagonist and defined its mode of interaction with muscarinic receptors.

Clinical Utility of Tissue Proximity Indication With a Variable‐Loop Circular Catheter for Pulmonary Vein Isolation

Journal of Cardiovascular Electrophysiology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background The variable‐loop circular catheter (VLCC, VARIPULSE) is a pulsed‐field ablation (PFA) catheter equipped with a Tissue Proximity Indication (TPI) function, which monitors catheter‐tissue contact. Although TPI‐negative sites have been reported to contribute to gap formation, no studies have evaluated the utility of real‐time function.

Guideline for Medication Management of Distressing Symptoms in Older Patients Receiving End‐of‐Life Palliative Care

Journal of Evidence-Based Medicine, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Older patients receiving end‐of‐life palliative care often present with multiple geriatric syndromes, frailty, and comorbid symptom burden, resulting in a high risk of medication‐related harm. This guideline focuses on pharmacological management of distressing symptoms in older patients receiving end‐of‐life or hospice‐oriented palliative care,

Arctic lake trout (Salvelinus namaycush) show evidence of seasonal acclimation of cardiac adrenergic sensitivity but not heat tolerance

Journal of Fish Biology, EarlyView.
Abstract Many Arctic fishes experience prolonged periods of extreme cold and large thermal variation over both rapid and seasonal time scales which challenge critical physiological functions. In the central Canadian Arctic, we caught wild adult lake trout (Salvelinus namaycush) acclimatized to winter and summer temperatures to determine the extent to ...
