The effectiveness of aerobic exercise on pain and disability in individuals with neck pain: A systematic review and meta‐analysis

open access: yesExperimental Physiology, EarlyView.
Abstract The present review aimed to investigate the effectiveness of aerobic exercise (AE) compared to other interventions in decreasing pain intensity and reducing disability in individuals with neck pain. A systematic review (SR) of randomized controlled trials was conducted. This SR was registered in PROSPERO (CRD42021231231).

Vascular health and exercise in females throughout the lifespan: Exploring puberty, pregnancy and menopause

open access: yesExperimental Physiology, EarlyView.
Abstract This narrative review highlights the impact of exercise on vascular health in females over the lifespan with an emphasis on puberty, pregnancy and menopause. These events encompass substantial changes in sex hormone levels, particularly oestrogens and progesterone.

A role for transcriptional repressor methyl-CpG-binding protein 2 and plasticity-related gene serum- and glucocorticoid-inducible kinase 1 in the induction of inflammatory pain states [PDF]

open access: yes, 2007
Activity-dependent changes in neurons of the rat superficial dorsal horn are crucial for the induction and maintenance of neuropathic and inflammatory pain states.

Role of movement in long-term basal ganglia changes: implications for abnormal motor responses

open access: yesFrontiers in Computational Neuroscience, 2013
Abnormal involuntary movements and dyskinesias elicited by drugs that stimulate dopamine receptors in the basal ganglia are a major issue in the management of Parkinson’s disease (PD).

Mitochondrial control of ciliary gene expression and structure in striatal neurons

open access: yesThe Journal of Physiology, EarlyView.
Abstract figure legend Neurons drive animal behaviour by receiving and transmitting information and require energy, primarily supplied by mitochondria, to function. Additionally, neurons need to sense environmental changes to adapt, a function that is locally played by the primary cilia.

KNDy neurone activation prior to the LH surge of the ewe is disrupted by LPS [PDF]

open access: yes, 2017
In the ewe, steroid hormones act on the hypothalamic arcuate nucleus (ARC) to initiate the GnRH/LH surge. Within the ARC, steroid signal transduction may be mediated by estrogen receptive dopamine-, β-endorphin- or neuropeptide Y (NPY)-expressing cells ...

Addiction is a reward deficit and stress surfeit disorder

open access: yesFrontiers in Psychiatry, 2013
Drug addiction can be defined by a three-stage cycle—binge/intoxication, withdrawal/negative affect, and preoccupation/anticipation—that involves allostatic changes in the brain reward and stress systems.

Nutritionally Responsive PMv DAT Neurons Are Dynamically Regulated During Pubertal Transition

open access: yesThe FASEB Journal, Volume 39, Issue 13, 15 July 2025.
The ventral premammillary nucleus of the hypothalamus plays an essential role in the metabolic control of reproduction. Puberty brings large changes to a subpopulation of PMvLepRb cells expressing the dopamine transporter (PMvDAT). DAT gene expression is higher in prepubertal females than in adults and is regulated by leptin in prepubertal females ...

ERNEST COST action overview on the (patho)physiology of GPCRs and orphan GPCRs in the nervous system

open access: yesBritish Journal of Pharmacology, Volume 182, Issue 14, Page 3178-3210, July 2025.
G protein‐coupled receptors (GPCRs) are a large family of cell surface receptors that play a critical role in nervous system function by transmitting signals between cells and their environment. They are involved in many, if not all, nervous system processes, and their dysfunction has been linked to various neurological disorders representing important
