Pepducins as a potential treatment strategy for asthma and COPD. [PDF]
Current therapies to treat asthma and other airway diseases primarily include anti-inflammatory agents and bronchodilators. Anti-inflammatory agents target trafficking and resident immunocytes and structural cells, while bronchodilators act to prevent or

NSAIDS AS MODULATORS OF CATION CHANNELS: FENAMATES REPURPOSING IN CHANNELOPATHIES
Cationic ion channels are transmembrane proteins that regulate the flux of cations (potassium, sodium, and calcium) across cell membrane, playing a pivotal role in many cellular functions. Disruptions of their activity can lead to the so‐called genetic or acquired channelopathies, a heterogeneous group of diseases that affect multiple human systems ...

An approach for identifying brainstem dopaminergic pathways using resting state functional MRI. [PDF]
Here, we present an approach for identifying brainstem dopaminergic pathways using resting state functional MRI. In a group of healthy individuals, we searched for significant functional connectivity between dopamine-rich midbrain areas (substantia nigra;

Harnessing Viral Proteases for Cellular and Molecular Engineering
Engineered viral proteases (VIPs) provide programmable control of protein function with high specificity and low toxicity. Integrated with chemogenetic and optogenetic modules, these VIP systems enable logic gate manipulation for targeted regulation of cell signaling, gene expression, protein secretion, and degradation, thereby offering versatile ...

A Role for Sigma Receptors in Stimulant Self Administration and Addiction
Sigma1 receptors (σ1Rs) represent a structurally unique class of intracellular proteins that function as chaperones. σ1Rs translocate from the mitochondria-associated membrane to the cell nucleus or cell membrane, and through protein-protein interactions

The novel lysergamide 1‐(furan‐2‐carbonyl)‐LSD (1F‐LSD) was analytically characterized. 1F‐LSD showed LSD‐like activity in vivo similar to 1‐(thiophene‐2‐carbonyl)‐LSD (1T‐LSD) used for comparison. Administration studies in mice and LC–MS analysis revealed that 1F‐LSD served as a prodrug.

Glutamatergic-dopaminergic balance in the brain. Its importance in motor disorders and schizophrenia [PDF]
Dopamine appears to be of less importance in the regulation of psychomotor functions than was previously thought. A central dopaminergic-glutamatergic balance may be important for both akinetic motor disorders and psychosis.

Dopamine D 4 Receptor-Deficient Mice Display Cortical Hyperexcitability [PDF]
The dopamine D(4) receptor (D(4)R) is predominantly expressed in the frontal cortex (FC), a brain region that receives dense input from midbrain dopamine (DA) neurons and is associated with cognitive and emotional processes.
