A personal 360° view of applications of ‘biomimetic’ molecular recognition

Journal of Chemical Technology &Biotechnology, EarlyView.
Abstract Molecular recognition between biological molecules has formed the basis for innumerable applications in biotechnology for the last seven decades or so. Techniques such as affinity chromatography, solid‐phase and aqueous two‐phase extraction, affinity precipitation, biomimetic catalytic systems, biosensors and molecular imprinting all exploit ...

Decision‐making and risk‐taking as predictors of health risk behaviors in the Millennium Cohort Study

JCPP Advances, EarlyView.
Abstract Background Facets of decision‐making and risk‐taking are implicated in adolescent health risk behaviors; however, whether they may lead to adolescent engagement in substance use, gambling, and self‐harm is unknown. Methods We used the Millennium Cohort Study to test whether a task‐based measure of decision‐making and risk‐taking predicts ...

Hippocampal BDNF regulates a shift from flexible, goal-directed to habit memory system function following cocaine abstinence. [PDF]

, 2019
The transition from recreational drug use to addiction involves pathological learning processes that support a persistent shift from flexible, goal-directed to habit behavioral control.

Postoperative Effects of Celecoxib on Opioid Use and Pain Control After Benign Oropharyngeal Surgery

The Laryngoscope, EarlyView.
This study evaluated how the addition of celecoxib to a multimodal pain regimen following tonsillectomy + adenoidectomy, or uvulopalatopharyngoplasty (UPPP) + tonsillectomy affects postoperative opioid use and pain control. Patients who received celecoxib consumed significantly fewer opioids compared to the historic control group, with similar ...

Effects of palmitoylethanolamide in cocaine-induced behaviours [PDF]

, 2016
Aims. Cocaine addiction is a chronically relapsing disorder characterized by the compulsion to seek and take the drug. Previous investigations have demonstrated that several drugs of abuse, as cocaine, can alter the levels of lipid-based signalling ...

Germanium‐Based Mid‐Infrared Integrated Photonics

Laser &Photonics Reviews, EarlyView.
The mid‐infrared (mid‐IR) spectral range is a part of the electromagnetic spectrum in which most of the molecules have vibrational and rotational resonances. Photonics integration in this wavelength range have thus seen a burst of interest in the recent years, mainly driven by applications related with the detection of chemical and biological ...

A latent class analysis of the past-30-day substance use patterns among lifetime cocaine users: Findings from a community sample in North Central Florida

Addictive Behaviors Reports, 2019
Objectives: Cocaine use is increasing and many cocaine users engage in polysubstance use. Within polysubstance use, relationships among use of individual substances are necessarily complex.

Reduced GABA-B/GIRK-mediated regulation of the VTA following a single exposure to cocaine [PDF]

, 2012
In this paper, Arora and colleagues expand on their previous work on GIRK channels in the ventral tegmental area (VTA) presenting evidence that a single exposure to cocaine reduces inhibitory GABAergic transmission to dopamine (DA) neurons in the ventral

Chemical Ionization Mass Spectrometry: Fundamental Principles, Diverse Applications, and the Latest Technological Frontiers

Mass Spectrometry Reviews, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT The review examines the evolution of chemical ionization mass spectrometry (CI‐MS), a technique developed in 1966 by Field and Munson. CI is a soft‐ionization method that produces more intense molecular ions with less fragmentation than electron ionization (EI).

Chess in Mental Health: Therapeutic Potential and Neurocognitive Mechanisms—A Systematic Review

Medicine Bulletin, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Objective Chess is an ancient game with simple rules but high cognitive demands. This review examined chess as a cognitive tool for patients with mental disorders and explored the cognitive mechanisms and neural structures that may underlie its effects. Method A systematic review of studies was conducted following PRISMA guidelines.
