Balancing Promise and Peril: Hemophilia Gene Therapy Insights

open access: yesIUBMB Life, Volume 78, Issue 1, January 2026.
ABSTRACT Hemophilia is an inherited disorder characterized by impaired blood clotting caused by mutations in the genes responsible for producing coagulation factor (F) VIII (hemophilia A, HA) or FIX (hemophilia B, HB). Current treatment primarily relies on replacement therapy, involving frequent and costly infusions of FVIII or FIX concentrates.

Evaluation of leptin treatment on maintenance of body weight loss in diet‐induced obese mice

open access: yesDiabetes, Obesity and Metabolism, Volume 28, Issue 1, Page 401-416, January 2026.
Abstract Aims To evaluate the therapeutic potential of leptin treatment for weight loss maintenance preclinically, through a systematic evaluation of leptin efficacy (a) following a period of weight loss stability (as in published clinical studies), and (b) across a range of circulating leptin concentrations achieved through a variety of different ...

Homologous desensitization of the human guanylate cyclase C receptor

open access: yesEuropean Journal of Biochemistry, 2000
Guanylate Cyclase C (GCC) serves as a receptor for the endogenous ligands, guanylin and uroguanylin, as well as the family of bacterial heat‐stable enterotoxins (ST), which are one of the major causes of diarrhoea the world over. We had earlier provided evidence that GCC, present in the human colonic T84 cell line, is desensitized on prolonged exposure

Targeting Histamine H4 Receptor in the Rostral Ventromedial Medulla to Relieve Hypertension

open access: yesAdvanced Science, Volume 12, Issue 45, December 4, 2025.
H4R and its downstream TRPV1 channel mediate the excitatory effect of TMN histaminergic afferent inputs on GABAergic sympathoinhibitory neurons in RVMM. Intranasal delivery of selective H4R agonist VUF 8430 suppresses renal sympathetic outflow and elicits sustained depressor and bradycardia responses in SHRs and CUMS‐induced hypertensive rats ...

Differential interaction of glimepiride and glibenclamide with the β-cell sulfonylurea receptor I. Binding characteristics [PDF]

open access: yes, 1994
Glimepiride is a novel sulfonylurea drug for treatment of non-insulin-dependent diabetes mellitus with higher blood sugar lowering efficacy in diabetic patients than glibenclamide raising the question whether this characteristics is in line with ...

The functional architecture of the acetylcholine nicotinic receptor explored by affinity labelling and site-directed mutagenesis [PDF]

open access: yes, 2017
The scientific community will remember Peter Läuger as an exceptional man combining a generous personality and a sharp and skilful mind. He was able to attract by his views the interest of a large spectrum of biologists concerned by the mechanism of ion ...

Prostaglandin metabolite induces inhibition of TRPA1 and channel-dependent nociception [PDF]

open access: yes, 2012
BACKGROUND: The Transient Receptor Potential (TRP) ion channel TRPA1 is a key player in pain pathways. Irritant chemicals activate ion channel TRPA1 via covalent modification of N-terminal cysteines.

The full repertoire of Drosophila gustatory receptors for detecting an aversive compound. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2015
The ability to detect toxic compounds in foods is essential for animal survival. However, the minimal subunit composition of gustatory receptors required for sensing aversive chemicals in Drosophila is unknown.

GRK6 regulates the hemostatic response to injury through its rate-limiting effects on GPCR signaling in platelets. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2020
G protein-coupled receptors (GPCRs) mediate the majority of platelet activation in response to agonists. However, questions remain regarding the mechanisms that provide negative feedback toward activated GPCRs to limit platelet activation and thrombus ...
