Bioluminescence Imaging of Inflammation in Vivo Based on Bioluminescence and Fluorescence Resonance Energy Transfer Using Nanobubble Ultrasound Contrast Agent

open access: yes, 2019
Inflammation is an immunological response involved in various inflammatory disorders ranging from neurodegenerative diseases to cancers. Luminol has been reported to detect myeloperoxidase (MPO) activity in an inflamed area through a light-emitting ...

Systematic profiling reveals broad G protein coupling and context‐dependent modulation of cyclic AMP by the orphan receptor GPR139

open access: yesBritish Journal of Pharmacology, EarlyView.
Background and Purpose G protein‐coupled receptors (GPCRs) are major drug targets, yet many orphan receptors remain poorly characterized. GPR139 has been implicated in CNS disorders, including schizophrenia and depression, but its signalling mechanisms remain unclear.

Extracellular vesicles in pharmacology: Innovations in drug delivery and therapeutic applications in cancer

open access: yesBritish Journal of Pharmacology, EarlyView.
Extracellular vesicles (EVs) are a diverse population of membrane nanoparticles secreted by nearly all cell types, playing a key role in intercellular communication by transferring bioactive macromolecular cargo. In cancer, EVs shape both the local tumour microenvironment and distant premetastatic niches.

Positive modulation of glucagon‐like peptide 1 (GLP‐1) receptor by endogenous haemorphins with implications in glucose metabolism and diabetes

open access: yesBritish Journal of Pharmacology, EarlyView.
Haemorphins act on GLP‐1 receptor (GLP‐1R) activity and signalling in a positive allosteric manner. This leads to potentiated GLP‐1‐mediated activity and signalling, as well as insulin synthesis, which may have implications for glucose metabolism and, thereby, diabetes and obesity. (The graph was created in BioRender.com).

Ammonia Accumulation Drives Intervertebral Disc Degeneration by Triggering Ammonia‐Induced Cell Death Through Lysosome–Mitochondria Crosstalk

open access: yesCell Proliferation, EarlyView.
Mechanical strain disrupts the lysosome‐mitochondria axis via GLS1‐mediated ammonia toxicity, causing NP cell death and ECM breakdown in IVDD. CB839‐mediated GLS1 inhibition effectively rescues cellular homeostasis and alleviates disc degeneration.

Far‐field bioluminescent immune cell–mediated photodynamic therapy is limited by photon flux

open access: yesPhotochemistry and Photobiology, EarlyView.
Bioluminescent immune cell‐mediated photodynamic therapy uses tumor‐homing, luciferase‐expressing immune cells as internal light sources to activate photosensitizers in deep‐seated and/or micrometastatic tumors. Using both experiments and computational simulations, we find that this approach delivers insufficient far‐field energy to tumor cells to ...
