Glial cells in the heart: Implications for their roles in health and disease
The Journal of Physiology, Volume 604, Issue 4, Page 1531-1546, 15 February 2026.Abstract figure legend Schematic representation of cardiac autonomic ganglia within epicardial fat pads (posterior heart surface shown), containing vagal postganglionic neuron cell bodies, associated fibres, and glia. These ganglia receive cholinergic input from vagal preganglionic neurons and adrenergic input from sympathetic postganglionic neurons ...

Effects of cAMP and CFTR modulation on apical fluid pH in human airway Calu‐3 cells
Physiological Reports, Volume 14, Issue 3, February 2026.Abstract The airway epithelium serves as the first line of defense against inhaled insults present in the external environment by acting as a physical barrier and through host defense mechanisms. Proper maintenance of these host defense mechanisms relies on the regulation of airway surface liquid (ASL) composition and properties, a process that is ...

Contrasting roles of axonal (pyramidal cell) and dendritic (interneuron) electrical coupling in the generation of neuronal network oscillations [PDF]
, 2003 Electrical coupling between pyramidal cell axons, and between interneuron dendrites, have both been described in the hippocampus. What are the functional roles of the two types of coupling?

Muscarinic receptor oligomerization [PDF]
, 2018 G protein-coupled receptors (GPCRs) have been classically described as monomeric entities that function by binding in a 1:1 stoichiometric ratio to both ligand and downstream signalling proteins.

Advanced Science, Volume 13, Issue 6, 30 January 2026.DR5 knockout exhibits a thinner colonic mucus layer, leading to mild dysbiosis, increased susceptibility to Citrobacter rodentium invasion, and exacerbated epithelial injury. Mechanistically, DR5 binds transcription factor TBP, which regulates the expression of gene Best2 via its promoter.
