Cancer pain: current practice and emerging targets

open access: yesBritish Journal of Pharmacology, EarlyView.
Cancer pain (CP) arises from a complex interplay between the tumour and its microenvironment. Many patients experience a mixed pain phenotype that encompasses nociceptive, neuropathic and neuroinflammatory mechanisms, and vary across tumour type and disease stage. Despite decades of intensive research, the mainstay of cancer pain treatment is still non‐

Cdk5 is involved in BDNF-stimulated dendritic growth in hippocampal neurons.

open access: yesPLoS Biology, 2007
Neurotrophins are key regulators of neuronal survival and differentiation during development. Activation of their cognate receptors, Trk receptors, a family of receptor tyrosine kinases (RTKs), is pivotal for mediating the downstream functions of ...

LMTK2 Inhibits Metastasis of Colon Cancer Cells Through p38 MAPK

open access: yesCancer Science, EarlyView.
LMTK2 suppresses colon cancer metastasis by acting as a kinase‐independent scaffold that directly binds p38, blocking its interaction with MKK3/6 and subsequent phosphorylation, thereby inhibiting the downstream pro‐metastatic gene program. ABSTRACT Metastasis is the leading cause of death in patients with colon cancer. Although Lemur tyrosine kinase 2

Modulation of TRPA1 channel activity by Cdk5 in sensory neurons

open access: yesChannels, 2018
Transient receptor potential cation channel, subfamily A, member 1 (TRPA1), is activated by a broad range of noxious stimuli. Cdk5, a member of the Cdk family, has recently been identified as a modulator of pain signaling pathways.

Canonical and non‐canonical functions of proteins regulating mitochondrial dynamics in mammalian physiology

open access: yesThe Journal of Physiology, EarlyView.
Abstract figure legend Mitochondria are highly dynamic organelles that continuously remodel their architecture through coordinated cycles of fusion and fission. This review examines the four key GTPases that orchestrate mitochondrial dynamics in mammals: MFN1, MFN2, OPA1, and DRP1.

Myelin Impairment and Regeneration in the Central Nervous System: Molecular Mechanisms, Diseases, and Prospective Therapeutic Targets

open access: yesMedComm, Volume 7, Issue 10, October 2026.
Proper myelin formation is crucial for normal neural circuit function, while myelin deficiency can lead to neural circuit dysfunction and cognitive decline, notably in Alzheimer's disease and other central nervous system demyelinating disorders. This review summarizes central myelin's structure and function, demyelination biomarkers and pathological ...

Peripheral and orofacial pain sensation is unaffected by the loss of p39

open access: yesMolecular Pain, 2017
Cdk5 is a key neuronal kinase necessary for proper brain development, which has recently been implicated in modulating nociception. Conditional deletion of Cdk5 in pain-sensing neurons attenuates pain responses to heat in both the periphery and orofacial

Mitochondrial Fusion and Fission in Age‐Related Cardio‐Cerebral Diseases: Mechanisms and Interventions

open access: yesAging Cell, Volume 25, Issue 10, October 2026.
Mitochondrial fission‐fusion imbalance contributes to age‐related cardio‐cerebral diseases like Alzheimer's disease, Parkinson's disease, Cerebral Infarction, Arteriosclerosis, Myocardial Infarction, Cardiac valve disease, Hypertension, and Cardiomyopathy. This review summarizes its regulatory mechanisms and interventions.

Stress-induced Cdk5 activity enhances cytoprotective basal autophagy in Drosophila melanogaster by phosphorylating acinus at serine437

open access: yeseLife, 2017
Cdk5 is a post-mitotic kinase with complex roles in maintaining neuronal health. The various mechanisms by which Cdk5 inhibits and promotes neurodegeneration are still poorly understood.

An Acidic Tubulointerstitial Microenvironment Delays Cell‐Cycle Progression in Proximal Tubule Cells and Fibroblasts and Synergizes With Lactate to Drive Phenotypic Alterations

open access: yesActa Physiologica, Volume 242, Issue 10, October 2026.
ABSTRACT Background Chronic kidney disease (CKD) is characterized by progressive tubulointerstitial inflammation and fibrosis, particularly affecting the proximal tubule. Both proximal tubular epithelial cells and interstitial fibroblasts contribute to CKD progression through cell‐cycle arrest and phenotypic transitions.
