T Cell‐Mediated Targeting of Interneurons in Mice Shapes Hippocampal Remodeling and Epilepsy

open access: yesAnnals of Neurology, EarlyView.
Objective Autoimmune encephalitis (AE) is associated with autoantibodies targeting distinct neuronal populations. In AE, antibodies against glutamate decarboxylase 65 (GAD65), expressed in GABAergic interneurons, are frequently detected. In GAD65‐AE, hippocampal biopsies often show infiltrates of CD8+ cytotoxic T cells (CTLs), suggesting a prominent T ...

Beyond the label: Rethinking off‐label drug use in paediatrics. Towards a scientifically grounded and safer future for paediatric pharmacotherapy

open access: yesBritish Journal of Clinical Pharmacology, EarlyView.
Abstract Despite regulatory progress being made in the past two decades, off‐label drug use in paediatrics remains pervasive, with prevalence estimated between 3% and 97% of prescriptions across different clinical settings. Off‐label use—defined as prescribing outside the conditions described in the Summary of Product Characteristics (SmPC)—is often ...

Development of a nalmefene formulation suitable for a community‐use auto‐injector

open access: yesBritish Journal of Clinical Pharmacology, EarlyView.
Aim Time to onset of reversal is critical when treating opioid‐induced respiratory depression and hypoxia. This study aimed to develop a formulation of the opioid antagonist nalmefene with an increased absorption rate and reduced time to onset of reversal following intramuscular administration. Methods Several absorption enhancers were screened in rats,

Clinical relevance of pharmacogenomic information for improving prescribing practices in acutely admitted older medical patients

open access: yesBritish Journal of Clinical Pharmacology, EarlyView.
Aims Safe prescribing and effective medication review during acute hospitalization depends on accurate information about liver and kidney function because these organs are responsible for the elimination of most medications. While estimates for kidney function are widely used, comparable markers of hepatic drug‐metabolizing capacity are not routinely ...
