Segregation of acetylcholine and GABA in the rat superior cervical ganglia: functional correlation.

Frontiers in Cellular Neuroscience, 2016
Sympathetic neurons have the capability to segregate their neurotransmitters (NTs) and co-transmitters to separate varicosities of single axons; furthermore, in culture, these neurons can even segregate classical transmitters. In vivo sympathetic neurons

Cannabigerol reverses mechanical allodynia through α2A‐adrenergic modulation of thalamocortical signaling in chemotherapy‐induced neuropathy

British Journal of Pharmacology, EarlyView.
Abstract Background and Purpose Chemotherapy‐induced peripheral neuropathy (CIPN) is a prevalent and treatment‐resistant side effect of platinum‐based chemotherapy, characterised by mechanical allodynia. Cannabigerol (CBG), a non‐psychoactive cannabinoid, has shown antinociceptive potential, but its site and mechanism of action remain unclear.

Generation of recombinant antibodies to rat GABAA receptor subunits by affinity selection on synthetic peptides.

PLoS ONE, 2014
The abundance and physiological importance of GABAA receptors in the central nervous system make this neurotransmitter receptor an attractive target for localizing diagnostic and therapeutic biomolecules.

A PK/PD study on antihyperalgesia by an α2/3‐GABAA receptor PAM in mice: Lack of tolerance liability and potential involvement of γ1‐GABAA receptors

British Journal of Pharmacology, EarlyView.
Abstract Background and Purpose GABAA receptors (GABAARs) are heteropentameric ion channels that control almost all CNS functions, including spinal nociception. Most GABAARs contain a γ2 subunit but differ in their α and β subunit composition. TPA023B is an α2/α3 subtype selective, non‐sedative, positive allosteric modulator (PAM) with antihyperalgesic

Increased motor-impairing effects of the neuroactive steroid pregnanolone in mice with targeted inactivation of the GABAA receptor gamma2 subunit in the cerebellum

Frontiers in Pharmacology, 2016
Endogenous neurosteroids and neuroactive steroids have potent and widespread actions on the brain via inhibitory GABAA receptors. In recombinant receptors and genetic mouse models their actions depend on the alpha, beta and delta subunits of the receptor,

Opening closed inward rectifier potassium channel doors

British Journal of Pharmacology, EarlyView.
Inwardly rectifying potassium (KIR) channels are essential regulators of membrane potential in excitable and non‐excitable tissues. Although KIR channels exhibit a biophysical preference for potassium influx due to voltage‐dependent block of outward current by polyamines and Mg2+, under physiological conditions, they predominantly mediate K+ efflux ...

Clinical characteristics of autoimmune glial fibrillary acidic protein astrocytopathy in adults: a retrospective analysis of 9 cases

Internal Medicine Journal, EarlyView.
Abstract Background To identify early diagnostic clues, we analysed cerebrospinal fluid and serum biomarkers in patients with autoimmune glial fibrillary acidic protein astrocytopathy (GFAP‐A) and compared biomarker trends with those in patients with viral meningoencephalitis, tuberculous meningoencephalitis, and anti‐N‐methyl‐D‐aspartate receptor ...

Parasomnias and sleep‐related movement disorders induced by drugs in the adult population: a review about iatrogenic medication effects

Journal of Sleep Research, Volume 34, Issue 2, April 2025.
Summary Parasomnias and sleep‐related movement disorders (SRMD) are major causes of sleep disorders and may be drug induced. The objective of this study was to conduct a systematic review of the literature to examine the association between drug use and the occurrence of parasomnias and SRMD.

Equipped for success: genomes and metabolomes of the European Amanita muscaria are conserved in its novel South African range

New Phytologist, EarlyView.
Summary Plants and soils have been moved around the world for centuries, but invasive mushrooms receive scant attention. The Amanita muscaria species complex was introduced to South Africa in the context of forestry, but its origins, ecology and recent evolution are unstudied. We sequenced the genomes of 24 Northern and Southern Hemisphere A. muscaria,

Psychobiotics and the microbiota–gut–brain axis: Emerging paradigms in mental health modulation

Experimental Physiology, EarlyView.
Abstract The global rise in mental health conditions has prompted interest in interventions that act beyond conventional psychopharmacology. Psychobiotics, broadly understood as live microorganisms or microbe‐derived products that interact with the microbiota–gut–brain axis, have been suggested to exert neuroactive effects through neural, immune ...
