Diabetes-induced alterations in urothelium function:Enhanced ATP release and nerve-evoked contractions in the streptozotocin rat bladder [PDF]

open access: yes, 2018
Up to 80% of patients with diabetes mellitus develop lower urinary tract complications, most commonly diabetic bladder dysfunction (DBD). The aim of this study was to investigate the impact of diabetes on the function of the inner bladder lining ...

ADAM17 and its proteolytic targets in disease pathogenesis

open access: yesThe FEBS Journal, EarlyView.
ADAM17 as a multifunctional sheddase with contrasting roles across inflammatory, metabolic, cardiovascular, and neoplastic diseases. Through regulated activation by iRhom, iTAP/FRMD8, and tetraspanins, ADAM17 cleaves diverse membrane ligands and receptors, thereby promoting inflammation, fibrosis, obesity, insulin resistance, and tumor progression ...

The mechanisms of calcium homeostasis and signalling in the lens [PDF]

open access: yes, 2008
Excessive Ca2+ can be detrimental to cells and raised levels of Ca2+ in human lenses with cortical cataract have been found to play a major role in the opacification process.

Evolving treatments for Sjögren disease: current approaches and emerging targets

open access: yesInternal Medicine Journal, EarlyView.
Abstract Sjögren disease (SjD) is a prevalent systemic autoimmune condition characterised by exocrine gland dysfunction, systemic inflammation and heterogeneous organ involvement. Current management remains largely symptomatic, with no approved disease‐modifying therapies available and substantial unmet clinical need. However, advances in understanding

Arctic lake trout (Salvelinus namaycush) show evidence of seasonal acclimation of cardiac adrenergic sensitivity but not heat tolerance

open access: yesJournal of Fish Biology, EarlyView.
Abstract Many Arctic fishes experience prolonged periods of extreme cold and large thermal variation over both rapid and seasonal time scales which challenge critical physiological functions. In the central Canadian Arctic, we caught wild adult lake trout (Salvelinus namaycush) acclimatized to winter and summer temperatures to determine the extent to ...

Anticholinergic Medication Burden Scales: A Systematic Review

open access: yesJournal of the American Geriatrics Society, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background Anticholinergic burden refers to the cumulative anticholinergic effect of all medications taken by an individual. Anticholinergic burden scales help identify patients at risk of anticholinergic adverse effects and guide prescribing. However, substantial variation exists between scales, with no gold standard identified.

Lower density of calretinin‐immunopositive neurons in the putamen of subjects with schizophrenia

open access: yesJournal of Anatomy, Volume 246, Issue 4, Page 505-516, April 2025.
Recent neuroimaging and histological studies highlight the striatum as a key area involved in SCH, but the specific impairment of neuronal subtypes in subcortical structures is not fully understood. This study is the first detailed investigation of neuroanatomical changes in the putamen in SCH, specifically examining the density of calretinin ...

A Role for the Kolliker-Fuse Nucleus in Cholinergic Modulation of Breathing at Night During Wakefulness and NREM Sleep [PDF]

open access: yes, 2010
For many years, acetylcholine has been known to contribute to the control of breathing and sleep. To probe further the contributions of cholinergic rostral pontine systems in control of breathing, we designed this study to test the hypothesis that ...

Impact of TCAs and Gabapentin on Saliva and BMI in Adults With Xerostomia

open access: yesJournal of Oral Rehabilitation, EarlyView.
In adults with medication‐related xerostomia, tricyclic antidepressant and gabapentin use were not independently associated with BMI or oral dryness after adjustment. Instead, female sex, anticholinergic burden, obstructive sleep apnea, GERD, thyroid disease, depression and race demonstrated stronger associations with reduced salivary flow and greater ...

Quantitative surface field analysis: learning causal models to predict ligand binding affinity and pose. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2018
We introduce the QuanSA method for inducing physically meaningful field-based models of ligand binding pockets based on structure-activity data alone. The method is closely related to the QMOD approach, substituting a learned scoring field for a pocket ...
