Activity Based Anorexia as an Animal Model for Anorexia Nervosa–A Systematic Review [PDF]
Anorexia nervosa (AN) is a severe eating disorder affecting around 1 per 100 persons. However, the knowledge about its underlying pathophysiology is limited.

Abstract Subclinical CVD risk factors are associated with hot flashes (HF). Habitual physical activity (PA) reduces CVD risk in part due to effects on blood vessel characteristics. The objective was to evaluate associations between arterial wave reflection (WR), HFs, and PA in perimenopausal people and determine whether PA moderates the relationship ...

5-HT6R Viral Vector-Mediated Indirect Pathway Activation in the Dorsolateral Striatum: A Discussion on Basal Ganglia Habitual and Goal-Directed Circuits [PDF]
Altering maladaptive behavioral tendencies is relevant for clinical interventions, making research on underlying mechanisms of habit essential. Mechanisms of habit are explored here with differential activation of the indirect pathway in the basal ...

Dopaminergic signaling within the basal ganglia has classically been thought to occur within two distinct neuronal pathways; the direct striatonigral pathway which contains the dopamine D1 receptor and the neuropeptides dynorphin and substance P, and the

Unraveling Chronic Pain: From Mechanisms and Risks to Diagnosis and Treatment
Chronic pain arises through distinct molecular pathways categorized into nociceptive, neuropathic, and nociplastic types. Nociceptive pain begins with TRP channel activation in peripheral nociceptors, signaling via Aδ‐ and C‐fibers through the spinal dorsal horn and spinothalamic tracts to the brain, regulated by descending inhibition and involving ...

Stress rapidly suppresses in vivo LH pulses and increases activation of RFRP-3 neurons in male mice [PDF]
Restraint stress is a psychosocial stressor that suppresses reproductive status, including LH pulsatile secretion, but the neuroendocrine mechanisms underlying this inhibition remains unclear.

IntroductionSleep disturbances have been shown to exacerbate pain sensitivity and prolong recovery from pain. However, conventional animal models of sleep disturbance, which involve physical disruptions, such as water or forced movement, might not fully ...

Understanding cell‐penetrating peptide mechanisms using computational electrophysiology simulations
Abstract Cell‐penetrating peptides (CPPs) can enter cells without inducing cytotoxicity and can be coupled with cargo molecules to be used to deliver drugs, DNA, or nanoparticles into cells. The peptide‐membrane interactions driving the internalization mechanism are not completely understood. In this study, we introduce Computational Electrophysiology (

Opioid precursor protein isoform is targeted to the cell nuclei in the human brain [PDF]
Background: Neuropeptide precursors are traditionally viewed as proteins giving rise to small neuropeptide molecules. Prodynorphin (PDYN) is the precursor protein to dynorphins, endogenous ligands for the kappa-opioid receptor.

Acupuncture anesthesia (AA) is an application of acupuncture innovation in surgical operations, combined with anesthetic techniques, and is a model of integrated Chinese and Western medicine. We proposed the Acupuncture Anesthesia Knowledge Database (AAKD), in which all data have been meticulously curated by field experts and assessed by a multi ...
