Receptor interaction profiles of novel N-2-methoxybenzyl (NBOMe) derivatives of 2,5-dimethoxy-substituted phenethylamines (2C drugs) [PDF]

open access: yes, 2015
N-2-methoxybenzyl-phenethylamines (NBOMe drugs) are newly used psychoactive substances with poorly defined pharmacological properties. The aim of the present study was to characterize the receptor binding profiles of a series of NBOMe drugs compared with

Practical Applications of Secondary/Extractive Electrospray Ionization (SESI): A Versatile Tool for Real‐Time Chemical Analysis

open access: yesMass Spectrometry Reviews, Volume 45, Issue 2, Page 392-428, March/April 2026.
ABSTRACT In the 1980s, researchers discovered the remarkable ability of electrospray plumes to effectively ionize gas‐phase molecules via secondary ionization. Around 20 years later—coinciding with the ambient mass spectrometry revolution—secondary electrospray ionization (SESI) and extractive electrospray ionization (EESI) coupled to mass spectrometry

Molecular determinants of signal transduction in tropomyosin receptor kinases

open access: yesFEBS Open Bio, Volume 16, Issue 2, Page 252-267, February 2026.
Tropomyosin receptor kinases control critical neuronal functions, but how do the same receptors produce diverse cellular responses? This review explores the structural mechanisms behind Trk signaling diversity, focusing on allosteric modulation and ligand bias.

The Pathway to Proof‐of‐Concept for BNC210, a Negative Allosteric Modulator of the Alpha‐7 Nicotinic Acetylcholine Receptor (nAChR), for Treatment of Psychiatric Disease

open access: yesClinical Pharmacology in Drug Development, Volume 15, Issue 2, February 2026.
Abstract BNC210 is an investigational small molecule selective negative allosteric modulator of the alpha‐7 nicotinic acetylcholine receptor (α7 nAChR). It is an anxiolytic compound with a novel mechanism of action. In a series of Phase 1 clinical trials in healthy volunteers, psychometric test batteries showed that BNC210 did not cause attention ...

I Feel I Need to Think about It: A Defence of Affective Moral Enhancement

open access: yesBioethics, Volume 40, Issue 2, Page 175-182, February 2026.
ABSTRACT Critics of affective moral enhancement generally contend that moral improvement can only be properly achieved through interventions that engage a person's rational faculties. Therefore, they view attempts to achieve moral improvement by targeting emotions as futile at best and detrimental to moral agency at worst.
