Andrology, EarlyView.Abstract Background The oxytocin receptor (OR) is a G‐protein‐coupled receptor recently identified in human spermatozoa, whose origin and role in sperm physiology remain unknown. Objectives In this study, using the pig as a model, we examine the presence of the OR in ejaculated spermatozoa through immunofluorescence and immunoblotting, and investigate ...

Psilocybin as a novel treatment for chronic pain
British Journal of Pharmacology, EarlyView.Abstract Psychedelic drugs are under active consideration for clinical use and have generated significant interest for their potential as anti‐nociceptive treatments for chronic pain, and for addressing conditions like depression, frequently co‐morbid with pain.

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.

Compartmentalisation in cAMP signalling: A phase separation perspective
British Journal of Pharmacology, EarlyView.Cells rely on precise spatiotemporal control of signalling pathways to ensure functional specificity. The compartmentalisation of cyclic AMP (cAMP) and protein kinase A (PKA) signalling enables distinct cellular responses within a crowded cytoplasmic space.

British Journal of Pharmacology, EarlyView.Background and Purpose Migraine is a neurovascular disorder largely mediated by calcitonin gene‐related peptide (CGRP). This study explores the role of the nociceptin/orphanin FQ (N/OFQ)–N/OFQ receptor (NOP) system in CGRP‐induced periorbital mechanical allodynia (PMA) in mice.

New biosensors and transgenic mice for multiplex cGMP imaging
British Journal of Pharmacology, EarlyView.Background and Purpose Cyclic guanosine monophosphate (cGMP) is a versatile second messenger that is important for human (patho‐)physiology and pharmacotherapy. Live‐cell imaging of cGMP with biosensors allows to elucidate its spatiotemporal dynamics in real time under close‐to‐native conditions. However, to monitor two separate cGMP pools or cGMP/cAMP

A quad‐cistronic fluorescent biosensor system for real‐time detection of subcellular Ca2+ signals
British Journal of Pharmacology, EarlyView.Background and Purpose The calcium ion (Ca2+) is a versatile cellular messenger regulating a variety of biological processes. Compounds modulating subcellular Ca2+ signals hold substantial pharmacological potential. Advances in fluorescent biosensors have revolutionised Ca2+ imaging.
