TRPM3 regulates fear memory encoding and seizure susceptibility in the lateral amygdala

British Journal of Pharmacology, EarlyView.
Abstract Background and purpose TRPM3 is best known for its role as a peripheral sensor of pain and heat. Recent studies reporting gain‐of‐function TRPM3 mutations in patients with neurodevelopmental and epilepsy‐associated disorders suggest a previously unrecognized role of this channel in the brain.

Bioengineered microbiotic levodopa therapy improves cognition and reduces pathology in a rat model of Alzheimer's disease

British Journal of Pharmacology, EarlyView.
Background and Purpose Degeneration of the pontine noradrenergic and midbrain dopaminergic systems contributes to cognitive‐behavioural disturbances during the prodromal stages of Alzheimer's disease (AD). We developed a genetically engineered, programmable probiotic Escherichia coli Nissle 1917 strain (EcNrhaL‐DOPA) capable of producing L‐3,4 ...

Interaction with NEGR1 affects mGlu5 cell signalling and the neuroprotection induced by the positive allosteric modulator VU0409551

British Journal of Pharmacology, EarlyView.
Abstract Background and Purpose The metabotropic glutamate receptor mGlu5 plays an important role in neuronal survival and synaptic plasticity. We and others have shown that mGlu5 positive allosteric modulators (PAMs) are biased agonists, triggering the activation of neuroprotective pathways and promoting neuronal survival. As mGlu5 biased pharmacology

Phloroglucinol inhibits human ureteral contractions via activation of cAMP‐PKA pathway

British Journal of Pharmacology, EarlyView.
Abstract Background and Purpose Phloroglucinol is used to treat renal colic, especially when non‐steroidal anti‐inflammatory drugs are contraindicated. This study aimed to clarify its mechanism by examining effects on human ureteral contractility and underlying signalling pathways. Experimental Approach Urinary levels of neurokinin A (NKA), substance P

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

British 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 dual incretin agonist tirzepatide blunts nicotine‐induced behaviours and neurochemistry in male mice

British Journal of Pharmacology, EarlyView.
Abstract Background and Purpose Nicotine dependence remains one of the leading causes of morbidity and mortality worldwide, with high relapse rates and post‐cessation weight gain representing persistent barriers to sustained abstinence. The incretin hormones glucose‐dependent insulinotropic polypeptide (GIP) and glucagon‐like peptide‐1 (GLP‐1) have ...

Inhibition of the MER tyrosine kinase ameliorates pulmonary fibrosis by suppressing macrophage M2 polarisation and osteopontin signalling

British Journal of Pharmacology, EarlyView.
Background and Purpose The MER proto‐oncogene tyrosine kinase (MERTK) has been implicated in the pathogenesis of pulmonary fibrosis (PF), and MERTK inhibition has been shown to ameliorate PF. However, the mechanisms remain unclear. Here, we have investigated how MERTK inhibition attenuates bleomycin (BLM)‐induced PF in mice and to elucidate the ...

Structural and biochemical basis for retinol‐binding protein 4 antagonism by tinlarebant

British Journal of Pharmacology, EarlyView.
Background and Purpose Retinol‐binding protein 4 (RBP4) is a member of the lipocalin superfamily that is connected to disease states such as insulin resistance, fatty liver disease and ocular disorders including Stargardt disease. Several retinoid and non‐retinoid antagonists of this protein have been developed for potential clinical use, but none have
