Therapeutic access points: The roles of circumventricular organs in drug delivery and metabolic regulation

British Journal of Pharmacology, EarlyView.
The current obesity drug landscape, dominated by GLP‐1 receptor agonists and emerging multi‐agonist therapies, has reinforced that long‐term weight loss is achieved in large part through central mechanisms that suppress appetite and reshape energy balance.

Natural product‐derived TRPM7 channel inhibitors in neurological injury: Mechanisms, pharmacological potential and translational challenges

British Journal of Pharmacology, EarlyView.
Disruption of intracellular ionic homeostasis is a convergent pathological feature across diverse neurological injuries and disorders, including ischaemic and haemorrhagic stroke, hypoxic–ischaemic brain injury, traumatic brain injury, epilepsy and brain tumour.

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

Cholinergic inputs to motoneurons in the spinal cord augment focal muscle spasticity in rodents

British Journal of Pharmacology, EarlyView.
Background and Purpose Cholinergic premotor inputs to motoneurons support high levels of motor output when required. However, the possible role of these inputs in pathologically elevated muscle tone has not been characterised. To address this, we examined the modulatory effect of spinal acetylcholine (ACh) on experimental spastic paralysis ...
