Comparative analysis of rodent lens morphometrics and biomechanical properties
Frontiers in OphthalmologyIntroductionProper ocular lens function requires biomechanical flexibility, which is reduced during aging. As increasing lens size has been shown to correlate with lens biomechanical stiffness in aging, we tested the hypothesis that whole lens size ...

British Journal of Pharmacology, EarlyView.Transient receptor potential vanilloid 1 (TRPV1) was the first noxious heat‐sensitive channel discovered. In rodents, its role is robust in the heat response of the cell body of polymodal nociceptors, but surprisingly small in that of the peripheral terminals in the skin.

British Journal of Pharmacology, EarlyView.The κ opioid receptor (κ receptor, KOR) is a G protein‐coupled receptor with well established roles in analgesia and immune modulation. Although historically studied primarily in the central nervous system (CNS), growing evidence indicates that κ signalling in peripheral tissues plays an important role in regulating pain, inflammation and immune ...

British Journal of Pharmacology, EarlyView.Abstract Ensifentrine (formerly called RPL 554) is a novel, first in class, inhaled bifunctional dual PDE3/4 inhibitor for the treatment of chronic respiratory diseases. Ensifentrine exhibits both bronchodilation via PDE3 inhibition and anti‐inflammatory activity via PDE4 inhibition.
