The mammalian efferent vestibular system utilizes cholinergic mechanisms to excite primary vestibular afferents

open access: yesScientific Reports, 2021
Electrical stimulation of the mammalian efferent vestibular system (EVS) predominantly excites primary vestibular afferents along two distinct time scales.

Alteration of colonic excitatory tachykininergic motility and enteric inflammation following dopaminergic nigrostriatal neurodegeneration [PDF]

open access: yes, 2016
Background: Parkinson's disease (PD) is frequently associated with gastrointestinal (GI) symptoms, including constipation and defecatory dysfunctions. The mechanisms underlying such disorders are still largely unknown, although the occurrence of a bowel ...

TRPV1 receptor antagonist blunts cholinergic‐mediated sweating

open access: yesThe FASEB Journal, 2018
Cholinergic‐mediated primary sweat production requires an increase in Ca ++ influx across the epithelial cell membrane of the sweat gland. Several Ca ++ channels have been proposed to contribute to the increase in Ca ++

Pt‐TiO2 mesoporous nanosystem co‐delivering phlorezin enables synergistic sonodynamic‐chemoimmunotherapy for hepatocellular carcinoma via directly targeting DDX5 and metabolic reprogramming modulation

open access: yesBMEMat, EarlyView.
Abstract Hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC), ranking as the third leading cause of cancer‐related mortality globally, continues to pose significant therapeutic challenges. Here, we developed an innovative nanosystem, Phl@PT, based on Pt‐TiO2 nanoparticles for the co‐delivery of Phlorezin, presenting a novel approach for HCC treatment through sonodynamic ...

A guide to neuromodulation in drug‐resistant epilepsy

open access: yesEpileptic Disorders, EarlyView.
Abstract Neuromodulation is approved for the treatment of drug‐resistant epilepsy. It has been increasingly utilized over the past two decades with the approval of deep brain stimulation (DBS) and responsive neurostimulation (RNS) in addition to vagus nerve stimulation (VNS)—particularly in patients who are not deemed to be good resective surgical ...

Bidirectional sleep‐seizure interactions and orexin in a mouse model of tuberous sclerosis complex‐related epilepsy

open access: yesEpilepsia, EarlyView.
Abstract Objective A strong bidirectional relationship exists between epilepsy and sleep, with seizures often occurring more frequently in sleep and, in turn, sleep being disrupted by seizures. However, the mechanistic basis of seizure–sleep interactions is poorly understood.

Precision therapies for genetic epilepsies in 2025: Promises and pitfalls

open access: yesEpilepsia Open, EarlyView.
Abstract By targeting the underlying etiology, precision therapies offer an exciting paradigm shift to improve the stagnant outcomes of drug‐resistant epilepsies, including developmental and epileptic encephalopathies. Unlike conventional antiseizure medications (ASMs) which only treat the symptoms (seizures) but have no effect on the underlying ...

Neonatal seizures and GABAergic drugs: Scylla and Charybdis?

open access: yesEpilepsia Open, EarlyView.
Abstract Neonates have a high incidence of seizures that are frequently difficult to control with conventional first‐line anti‐seizure medications, which are gamma‐aminobutyric acid (GABA) agonists. The reasons for this clinical problem are multifold but are likely related to the unique physiology of the immature nervous system. Specifically, the early
