Second‐generation prokineticin PKR1 receptor agonists: Advancing cardioprotection against chemotherapy‐induced toxicity

open access: yesBritish Journal of Pharmacology, Volume 183, Issue 12, Page 3377-3394, June 2026.
IS39, a novel non‐peptide PKR1 agonist, confers cardioprotection against doxorubicin‐induced toxicity. IS39 activates PKR1‐mediated pro‐survival signalling in cardiomyocytes, reducing reactive oxygen species (ROS), DNA damage and fibrosis markers. In vivo, IS39 preserves cardiac geometry and function in mice exposed to chronic doxorubicin challenge ...

Unimolecular GLP‐1/Apelin Hybrid Peptides Cause Prominent Appetite Suppression, as Well as Enhancing Insulin Secretion, Beta‐Cell Survival and Glycaemic Regulation

open access: yesDiabetes, Obesity and Metabolism, Volume 28, Issue 6, Page 4706-4717, June 2026.
ABSTRACT Aim To characterise the metabolic benefits of a GLP‐1/apelin hybrid peptide, namely exendin‐4‐linker‐apelin (ELA), and associated acylated forms, including ELA‐Lys12(γGluPal), ELA‐Lys27(γGluPal) and ELA‐Lys38(γGluPal). Methods Concentration‐ and receptor‐dependent effects of the peptides on insulin secretion and beta‐cell turnover were ...

Photocaged Oxytocin and Vasopressin Probes to Decipher Neuropeptide Signalling With High Spatiotemporal Resolution

open access: yesAngewandte Chemie International Edition, Volume 65, Issue 22, 25 May 2026.
Novel and biocompatible photoactivatable oxytocin and vasopressin probes, utilising state‐of‐the‐art photocages, remain inactive in the dark. Light exposure facilitates rapid spatiotemporal receptor activation and phospholipase C (PLC)‐mediated downstream signalling. Figure created in https://BioRender.com.

Monoclonal Antibody 5F1 Modulates Formyl Peptide Receptor 1 Conformation for Transmembrane Signaling

open access: yesFASEB BioAdvances
Formyl peptide receptor 1 (FPR1) is a G protein‐coupled receptor (GPCR) that mediates chemotaxis and bactericidal activities in phagocytes. The monoclonal antibody 5F1 is generated against full‐length FPR1 and used widely for detection of FPR1 expression.
