Decoding the Taste of Peptides: Structure, Interactions With Taste Receptors, Bioactivities, and Applications

open access: yesSustainable Food Proteins, Volume 3, Issue 2, June 2025.
This comprehensive review highlights the role of taste‐active peptides (TAPs) in modulating food taste and promoting health. It explores the taste profile, structure, sources, interactions with taste receptors, bioactivity, and potential applications of TAPs within the food and nutraceutical industries.

Chronic cocaine enhances release of neuroprotective amino acid taurine: a microdialysis study [PDF]

open access: yes, 2008
Cocaine inhibits high-affinity neurotransmitter uptake at the presynaptic nerve terminals to increase synaptic levels of dopamine, norepinephrine and serotonin^1^. This increase of synaptic dopamine may cause neurotoxicity^2,3^.

SorCS2 Is Important for Astrocytic Function in Neurovascular Signaling

open access: yesActa Physiologica, Volume 241, Issue 6, June 2025.
ABSTRACT Introduction The receptor SorCS2 is involved in the trafficking of membrane receptors and transporters. It has been implicated in brain disorders and has previously been reported to be indispensable for ionotropic glutamatergic neurotransmission in the hippocampus.

The Enteric Neuronal Circuitry: A Key Ignored Player in Nutrient Sensing Along the Gut–Brain Axis

open access: yesThe FASEB Journal, Volume 39, Issue 9, 15 May 2025.
The enteric nervous system (ENS) regulates critical physiological functions including gut motility, blood flow, and epithelial secretions. Despite its autonomous ability to execute local functions, its communication with the central nervous system is integral to the maintenance of homeostasis.

Role of Glutamate Excitotoxicity in Glioblastoma Growth and Its Implications in Treatment

open access: yesCell Biology International, Volume 49, Issue 5, Page 421-434, May 2025.
ABSTRACT Glioblastoma is a highly malignant and invasive type of primary brain tumor that originates from astrocytes. Glutamate, a neurotransmitter in the brain plays a crucial role in excitotoxic cell death. Excessive glutamate triggers a pathological process known as glutamate excitotoxicity, leading to neuronal damage.

GABAB Receptor: Structure, Biological Functions, and Therapy for Diseases

open access: yesMedComm, Volume 6, Issue 5, May 2025.
Within the GABAergic system, GABABRs are potential therapeutic targets for dealing multiple metabolic and binge eating disorders and food addiction. Allosteric modulators and small peptides targeting GABABR signaling pathways may be developed as attractive drug candidates that avoid the side effects of agents that directly bind these receptors ...
