Cortisol, Anxiety, and TNFα Mediate the Relationship Between BMI and Executive Functions
ABSTRACT Overweight and obesity are associated with poorer executive functions (EF). The underlying mechanisms contributing to this relationship are not yet conclusive, but cortisol, anxiety, and inflammation are likely among the contributing factors. Our objective was to evaluate whether fibrinogen, tumour necrosis factor alpha (TNFα), cortisol, and ...

Why does infantile epileptic spasms syndrome (IESS) occur with a variety of underlying conditions and why does it respond to adrenocorticotrophin hormone (ACTH)/corticosteroids? Our scoping review summarizes five hypotheses from the literature: gene/epigenetic regulation, stress/HPA axis activation, neuroinflammation/immune function, altered neuronal ...

This study shows that the flavin‐dependent tryptophan halogenase Thal also regioselectively halogenates the tricyclic non‐native substrate tryptoline, a β‐carboline with various pharmacological activities. Interestingly, Thal brominates a different position of the shared pharmacophore indole in tryptoline than it does in tryptophan. A crystal structure

sEVs have a critical role in orchestrating interorgan crosstalk and mediating exercise‐induced therapeutic effects. Lin et al. demonstrates that sEVs miR‐17/20a‐5p mediates the muscle‐brain crosstalk and emphasizes the central role of mTOR signaling in executing molecular programs that can protect brain health in response to exercise. Abstract Physical

Abstract Background Indoleamine 2,3‐dioxygenase 1 (IDO1) is a heme‐containing enzyme that degrades tryptophan (Trp) to kynurenine (Kyn), which suppresses effector T cells and reduces antitumor activity. KHK2455 is a long‐acting selective IDO1 inhibitor that blocks the heme component of the IDO holoenzyme.
