Neuropsychopharmacology of hallucinogenic and non‐hallucinogenic 5‐HT2A receptor agonists

British Journal of Pharmacology, EarlyView.
Psychedelic drugs such as LSD and psilocin were once relegated to the fringes of medical research because of their association with counterculture movements and a perceived concern about harm through recreational use, and their consequent legal prohibition in the early 1970s.

Psychedelics, entactogens and psychoplastogens for depression and related disorders

British Journal of Pharmacology, EarlyView.
Currently, the most actively investigated rapidly acting antidepressants, anxiolytics and/or anti PTSD agents, include psychedelics e.g. psilocybin, LSD, N,N‐dimethyltryptamine, ayahuasca; non‐hallucinogenic entactogens, e.g. MDMA; psychoplastogens which rapidly promote neuroplasticity, e.g.

Evidence that 5‐HT2A receptor signalling efficacy and not biased agonism differentiates serotonergic psychedelic from non‐psychedelic drugs

British Journal of Pharmacology, EarlyView.
Background and Purpose Serotonergic psychedelic drugs are under investigation as therapies for various psychiatric disorders, including major depression. Although serotonergic psychedelic drugs are 5‐HT2A receptor agonists, some such agonists are not psychedelic, potentially due to differences in 5‐HT2A receptor ligand bias or signalling efficacy. Here,

Assessing the exercise‐related kinetics of circulating cell‐free DNA, circulating tumour DNA, DNase I activity and cytokines in patients with solid tumours: A pilot study

Experimental Physiology, EarlyView.
Abstract Circulating cell‐free DNA (cfDNA), circulating tumour DNA (ctDNA) and inflammatory cytokines have prognostic and predictive value in oncology. However, the effects of acute exercise on cfDNA levels are unknown. Here, we explore the kinetics of cfDNA, ctDNA and cytokines upon an incremental exercise test in a pilot cohort of cancer patients ...

Sex differences in the prefrontal cortex and muscle oxygenation during exercise until exhaustion in endurance‐trained individuals

Experimental Physiology, EarlyView.
Abstract figure legend During cardiopulmonary exercise testing, the decline in oxygenation in the prefrontal cortex of women is striking. This crucial brain area is directly involved in planning motor tasks. The decline is particularly pronounced at higher exercise intensities, especially after reaching the respiratory compensation point or anaerobic ...

Estimated exercise‐induced maximal myocardial blood flow in untrained and endurance‐trained men

Experimental Physiology, EarlyView.
Abstract The heart critically depends on a continuous supply of oxygen, provided by myocardial blood flow (MBF), but reliable quantification of MBF during maximal exercise is not feasible in humans. We measured MBF at rest and during similar absolute (150 W) and relative (70% of V̇O2max${{\dot{V}}_{{{{\mathrm{O}}}_{\mathrm{2}}}{\mathrm{max ...

Postexercise muscle oxygen uptake kinetics in older breast cancer survivors and healthy individuals: Association with myosteatosis

Experimental Physiology, EarlyView.
Abstract Reduced cardiorespiratory fitness is common among breast cancer survivors and, although traditionally attributed to cardiac dysfunction, might also be related to peripheral skeletal muscle abnormalities. We examined peak and submaximal plantar‐flexion exercise and recovery kinetics for lower‐leg oxygen uptake (V̇O2${\dot V_{{{\mathrm{O}}_2}}}$)

Identification of the individual cardiac contraction threshold during high‐frame‐rate stress echocardiography

Experimental Physiology, EarlyView.
Abstract The clinical assessment of cardiovascular function during exercise using stress echocardiography is essential for accurate cardiac diagnosis. However, normal limitations of cardiac deformation responses to increasing physical exertion remain poorly understood.

Antioxidant supplementation blunts the proteome response to 3 weeks of sprint interval training preferentially in human type 2 muscle fibres

The Journal of Physiology, EarlyView.
Abstract figure legend Sprint interval training (SIT) is a popular time‐efficient type of endurance training. Healthy young men performed nine SIT sessions (4–6 × 30 s all‐out cycling sprints) over 3 weeks while being supplemented with antioxidants (high doses of vitamins C and E) or placebo. Muscle biopsies taken before and after the first SIT session

Profound neuronal differences during exercise‐induced hypoalgesia between athletes and non‐athletes revealed by functional near‐infrared spectroscopy

The Journal of Physiology, EarlyView.
Abstract figure legend After high‐intensity interval training (HIIT), endurance athletes demonstrated a reduction in pain perception, alongside decreased oxyhaemoglobin concentrations in the prefrontal, sensorimotor and posterior parietal cortices.
