Progress on the development of Class A GPCR‐biased ligands
Class A G protein‐coupled receptors (GPCRs) continue to garner interest for their essential roles in cell signalling and their importance as drug targets. Although numerous drugs in the clinic target these receptors, over 60% GPCRs remain unexploited. Moreover, the adverse effects triggered by the available unbiased GPCR modulators, limit their use and

Towards an efficient inverse static model of a Festo actuator made of two antagonist muscles for hybrid control of its position and stiffness [PDF]
The Festo air muscle is today one of the most known commercial version of the so-called McKibben pneumatic artificial muscle. A major advantage of handmade McKibben muscles, as well as its commercial versions, lies in the possibility it offers of realizing antagonist muscle actuator on the model of the biceps-triceps system.

Role and immunomodulatory profile of histamine receptors by H1 and H2 antagonists [PDF]
The present study was designed to delineate the immunomodulatory role of histamine receptors (H1- and H2-) on induction of antibody response to sheep red blood cells (SRBC), as well as the antibody generation profile, in rabbit system, systemically.

Physiological implications of biased signaling at histamine H2 receptors [PDF]
Histamine mediates numerous functions acting through its four receptor subtypes all belonging to the large family of seven transmembrane G-protein coupled receptors. In particular, histamine H2 receptor (H2R) is mainly involved in gastric acid production,

G protein‐coupled receptors (GPCRs) play a crucial role in cell function by transducing signals from the extracellular environment to the inside of the cell. They mediate the effects of various stimuli, including hormones, neurotransmitters, ions, photons, food tastants and odorants, and are renowned drug targets.

Towards Better Opioid Antagonists Using Deep Reinforcement Learning [PDF]
Naloxone, an opioid antagonist, has been widely used to save lives from opioid overdose, a leading cause for death in the opioid epidemic. However, naloxone has short brain retention ability, which limits its therapeutic efficacy. Developing better opioid antagonists is critical in combating the opioid epidemic.Instead of exhaustively searching in a ...
