Lysophosphatidic acid and itsreceptors: Role in bronchial asthma pathogenesis

Acta Biomedica Scientifica
Lysophosphatidic acid (LPA) is a biologically active lipid mediator that regulates a number ofsignaling pathways involved in the pathogenesis of bronchial asthma.

Repurposing a Lipid Droplet‐Associated Algal Protein as a Biosensor for Phosphatidic Acid

Advanced Sensor Research, Volume 5, Issue 8, August 2026.
The DTH1 lipid binding domain (DTH1LBD) binds to lipid membranes containing phosphatidic acid (PA). Its N‐terminal amphipathic helices are sufficient for this association and, when labeled with solvatochromic fluorophores, can serve as in vitro PA biosensors.

Network Pharmacology Combined With Metabonomics and Transcriptomics Reveals the Mechanism of Rubus Chingii Hu in Alleviating Nephrotoxicity Caused by Tripterygium Glycosides Tablet

Food Science &Nutrition, Volume 14, Issue 8, August 2026.
Flow chart of RCH to improve TGT‐induced nephrotoxicity. ABSTRACT Researches on Tripterygium glycosides tablets (TGT) often overlook renal toxicity from prolonged use. Rubus chingii Hu (RCH) is beneficial to kidney health and has an unclear role in reducing nephrotoxicity.

Ginseng pharmacology: a new paradigm based on gintonin-lysophosphatidic acid receptor interactions

Frontiers in Pharmacology, 2015
Ginseng, the root of Panax ginseng, is used as a traditional medicine. Despite the long history of the use of ginseng, there is no specific scientific or clinical rationale for ginseng pharmacology besides its application as a general tonic.

Myocardial Lipid Metabolism Imbalance: The Pathological Core and Novel Diagnostic‐Therapeutic Directions of Cardiovascular Diseases

Journal of Biochemical and Molecular Toxicology, Volume 40, Issue 8, August 2026.
In cardiac cells, Plin5/AMPK regulate lipid homeostasis; excess CD36‐mediated uptake drives lipotoxicity, mitochondrial dysfunction, and CVDs (e.g., heart failure). Biomarkers (ApoB/ApoA‐1) and therapies (SGLT2 inhibitors) target this cascade. ABSTRACT Cardiac lipid metabolism is fundamental to myocardial energy homeostasis, with fatty acid oxidation ...

Chemogenetic Activation of G12 Signaling Thickens the Epidermis With Enhanced Barrier Function

FASEB BioAdvances, Volume 8, Issue 8, August 2026.
In this study, we investigated the role of G12 signaling in the epidermis using a keratinocyte‐specific chemogenetic approach. Activation of G12 signaling promoted keratinocyte differentiation and enhanced epidermal barrier function by upregulating filaggrin, claudin‐1, and ceramide.

Polarized effects of adenosine on blood–brain barrier integrity: Tightening from the luminal and opening from the abluminal side

British Journal of Pharmacology, Volume 183, Issue 16, Page 4761-4777, August 2026.
Background and Purpose Adenosine as a signalling molecule modifies blood–brain barrier (BBB) tightness in pathological conditions. Our aim was to investigate the direct and polarized effects of adenosine on the BBB using co‐culture and in vivo models. Experimental Approach The expression of adenosine receptors was measured by qRT‐PCR.

Pharmacology, Medicinal Chemistry, and Therapeutic Potential of Imidazoline Receptor Ligands

ChemMedChem, Volume 21, Issue 13, 14 July 2026.
Building on the excellent review article by Dardonville and Rozas (2004), this paper summarizes the most representative ligands of imidazoline receptors (IR; I1, I2, and I3) and updates their pharmacological profiles. Although not exhaustive, it provides a solid starting point for understanding the significance of I2 IRs as promising therapeutic ...
