The effects of a (poly)phenol‐rich food intervention on markers of exercise‐induced inflammation and oxidative stress: A randomised controlled trial

open access: yesExperimental Physiology, EarlyView.
Abstract This study examined whether consuming a (poly)phenol‐rich food before strenuous muscle‐damaging exercise can modify post‐exercise markers of inflammation and oxidative stress. Using a double‐blinded, randomised, placebo‐controlled, between‐subjects design, 26 recreationally active males (n = 15) and females (n = 11) consumed higher‐(poly ...

Maternal nutrition as a key determinant of placental and developing blood–brain barrier xenobiotic protective functions

open access: yesThe Journal of Physiology, EarlyView.
Abstract figure legend Suboptimal maternal nutrition alters placental and developing blood–brain barrier (BBB) protective function and is associated with increased fetal brain vulnerability. In the placenta, nutritional adversity may reduce the exchange surface area and promote meta‐inflammation, compromising barrier efficiency in a model‐ and context ...

Steroid hormones in murine schistosomiasis mansoni [PDF]

open access: yes, 2017
Schistosomiasis is a neglected tropical disease, endemic in 76 countries, that afflicts more than 240 million people. The impact of schistosomiasis on infertility may be underestimated according to recent literature.

Molecular Profiling of Genes Associated With Methylphenidate Pathway Therapy and Discovery of New Variants in Amazonian Amerindian Populations

open access: yesAmerican Journal of Medical Genetics Part B: Neuropsychiatric Genetics, Volume 201, Issue 4, Page 291-299, June 2026.
ABSTRACT In Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder (ADHD), methylphenidate is one of the most widely used drugs, in which patient response significantly impacts prognosis. This study aimed to characterize the molecular profile of 10 genes associated with methylphenidate therapy.

Estrogen catechols detection as biomarkers in schistosomiasis induced cancer and infertility [PDF]

open access: yes, 2017
Urogenital schistosomiasis is a chronic infection caused by the human blood fluke Schistosoma haematobium. Schistosomiasis haematobium is a known risk factor for cancer leading to squamous cell carcinoma of the urinary bladder (SCC).

Towards Mechanism‐Informed Treatments for Mental Health

open access: yesJournal of Neurochemistry, Volume 170, Issue 5, May 2026.
Neuropsychiatric disorders impose a major global health burden, and current treatments, which historically mostly targeted dopamine and serotonin dysfunctions, often provide only partial, symptomatic relief. This review highlights emerging evidence that additional neuromodulator systems, including acetylcholine, norepinephrine, and endocannabinoids ...

Unraveling Chronic Pain: From Mechanisms and Risks to Diagnosis and Treatment

open access: yesMedComm, Volume 7, Issue 4, April 2026.
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 ...
