ABSTRACT Background Retinoic acid plays a critical role in spermatogenesis during both spermatogonial differentiation and spermiation. Mice lacking enzymes that synthesize retinoic acid, Aldh1a1/1a2, in the testes are infertile. WIN 18,446 reversibly inhibits spermatogenesis by inhibiting ALDH1A1/1A2 and is a promising approach to male contraception ...

Background and purpose Adult neurogenesis is a tightly regulated process affected by both cannabinoid receptors (CB1 and CB2) and adenosine 2A (A2A) receptors, both of which modulate neural progenitor cell activity. While emerging evidence suggests an interaction between these neuromodulatory systems, the extent and mechanism of their interplay in ...

Adolescent exposure to a THC‐rich cannabis extract produced genotype‐dependent, contrasting effects in mice. In wild‐type animals, it altered behavior and brain glial cell structure, whereas in mice with a genetic deficiency in serine racemase, a model of impaired NMDA receptor signaling relevant to schizophrenia, it prevented cognitive and ...

Electrostatic tuning of NaV channel activation by the domain II S3–S4 extracellular loop
Abstract figure legend Voltage‐gated sodium (NaV) channels are critical for electrical signalling, yet the molecular determinants that tune isoform‐specific activation remain incompletely understood. Here, we show that charged amino acids in the extracellular DII S3–S4 loop of NaV1.7 play a key role in setting voltage‐dependent activation.

N‐Arachidonoyl‐phosphatidylethanolamide phospholipase D activation by muscarinic receptors
Abstract figure legend Activating muscarinic M3 receptors activates Gq‐pathway signalling, including the activation of phospholipase C (PLC) and release of calcium from internal stores as shown in the upper panel. It remains unclear whether the calcium acts on N‐arachidonoyl‐phosphatidylethanolamide phospholipase D (NAPE‐PLD) itself or upstream at N ...
