Agonist-selective activation of individual G-proteins by muscarinic receptors

Scientific Reports
Selective activation of individual subtypes of muscarinic receptors is a promising way to safely alleviate a wide range of pathological conditions in the central nervous system and the periphery as well.

Effects of Pistacia lentiscus Leaf‐Twig and Resin (Mastic) Oils on Salivary Flow in Healthy Individuals

Oral Diseases, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Objective Pistacia lentiscus L. tree is known for its aromatic mastic gum containing terpenes α‐pinene and β‐myrcene, and has been applied as a traditional remedy in oral care for centuries. Previously, intranasal exposure to mastic resin volatiles increased salivary flow in healthy and dry‐mouth individuals. This study assessed the biological

Ion Channel Dysfunction and Therapeutic Targeting in Salivary Gland Disorders

Oral Diseases, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Objective Salivary gland hypofunction and xerostomia represent major clinical complications of radiation therapy, autoimmune disorders such as Sjögren's disease, and inherited epithelial ion transport defects. This review integrates current knowledge on ion channel dysfunction as a central mechanistic driver of salivary gland pathology and ...

Adverse outcomes between VMAT2 and anticholinergics in tardive dyskinesia: A target trial emulation

Psychiatry and Clinical Neurosciences, EarlyView.
Aim Vesicular monoamine transporter 2 (VMAT2) inhibitors have been approved for the treatment of tardive dyskinesia (TD), whereas anticholinergic agents are still widely used for this condition. This study aimed to compare the risk of major clinical adverse outcomes among patients with TD treated with VMAT2 inhibitors versus anticholinergic agents ...

Is muscarinic receptor agonist effective and tolerant for schizophrenia?

BMC Psychiatry
Background Several randomized clinical trials (RCTs) have recently examined the efficacy and tolerability of muscarinic receptor agonists in schizophrenia. However, whether therapeutics targeting muscarinic receptors improve symptom management and reduce

Prediabetic cardiomyopathy is attenuated by hypothalamic PVN oxytocin neuron activation

The Journal of Physiology, EarlyView.
Abstract figure legend A long‐term high‐fat, high‐fructose diet induces prediabetes with insulin resistance, hyperinsulinaemia, elevated triglycerides and metabolic‐associated steatotic liver disease (MASLD) in male rats. Animals developed prediabetic cardiomyopathy characterized by diastolic dysfunction, interstitial fibrosis and tachycardia ...

Mechanisms reducing parasympathetic activity in chronic hypoxia

The Journal of Physiology, EarlyView.
Abstract figure legend Parasympathetic activity is reduced in chronic hypoxia, but the underlying mechanism(s) are unclear. Using β‐adrenergic blockade to isolate parasympathetic control of heart rate at sea level and after 9‐12 days at high altitude, we investigated whether (i) chemoreflex activation, (ii) increased pulmonary ventilation and/or (iii ...
