The Connections of the Telencephalic Pallium in the White Sturgeon, Acipenser transmontanus: An Experimental Study

open access: yesJournal of Comparative Neurology, Volume 534, Issue 8, August 2026.
Sturgeons are an ancient and basal group of ray‐finned fishes whose pallium consists of lateral, medial, and posterior divisions. The connections of these divisions were determined by injections of biotinylated dextran amine and DiI. Although there is considerable overlap in the connections of these pallial divisions, their heaviest connections are ...

Review of Kyotorphin Research: A Mysterious Opioid Analgesic Dipeptide and Its Molecular, Physiological, and Pharmacological Characteristics

open access: yesFrontiers in Medical Technology, 2021
Tyrosine-arginine (kyotorphin), an opioid analgesic dipeptide, was discovered more than 40 years ago in 1979. The evidence accumulated during this period has established the physiological significance of kyotorphin as a neuromodulating peptide, and ...

Mechanisms of Acupuncture on the Neurovascular Unit in Migraine: A Narrative Review

open access: yesEuropean Journal of Neurology, Volume 33, Issue 8, August 2026.
ABSTRACT Objective The neurovascular unit (NVU) is a core structural and functional entity involved in migraine pathogenesis. Acupuncture may exert therapeutic effects by protecting NVU integrity. This narrative review aims to summarize the current evidence on the mechanisms by which acupuncture protects the NVU in migraine.

Effects of rearing conditions on behaviour and endogenous opioids in rats with alcohol access during adolescence. [PDF]

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2013
Causal links between early-life stress, genes and later psychiatric diagnoses are not possible to fully address in human studies. Animal models therefore provide an important complement in which conditions can be well controlled and are here used to ...

The Metabolic Awakening of Barley Seedlings: A Time‐Resolved View of How Germination and Light Shape Tissue‐Specific Metabolic Networks

open access: yesPlant Direct, Volume 10, Issue 7, July 2026.
ABSTRACT Integration of internal metabolism with environmental cues is essential for successful establishment and survival of seedlings, with light an important mediator of the transition from skotomorphogenesis to photomorphogenesis. However, detailed knowledge of the metabolic events associated with this critical transition in developing tissues of ...

Elevated Prolactin during Pregnancy Drives a Phenotypic Switch in Mouse Hypothalamic Dopaminergic Neurons

open access: yesCell Reports, 2019
Summary: Altered physiological states require neuronal adaptation. In late pregnancy and lactation, a sub-population of the mouse hypothalamic tuberoinfundibular dopaminergic (TIDA) neurons alters their behavior to synthesize and release met-enkephalin ...

Mycobacteria attenuate nociceptive responses by formyl peptide receptor triggered opioid peptide release from neutrophils. [PDF]

open access: yesPLoS Pathogens, 2009
In inflammation, pain is regulated by a balance of pro- and analgesic mediators. Analgesic mediators include opioid peptides which are secreted by neutrophils at the site of inflammation, leading to activation of opioid receptors on peripheral sensory ...
