Cancer Neuroscience: Decoding Neural Circuitry in Tumor Evolution for Targeted Therapy

Advanced Science, Volume 12, Issue 38, October 13, 2025.
This review highlights the pivotal role of the nervous system in cancer progression, emphasizing how neural–tumor interactions—via synaptic signaling, neurotransmitters, and paracrine factors—reshape the tumor microenvironment. It introduces cancer neuroscience as an emerging field and proposes integrating advanced tools such as AI and optogenetics to ...

Acetylcholine regulates the melanogenesis of retinal pigment epithelia cells via a cAMP-dependent pathway: A non-neuronal function of cholinergic system in retina

Heliyon
The turnover rate of melanogenesis in retinal pigment epithelium (RPE) and its molecular signaling remain unclear. This study aimed to investigate the role of cholinergic signaling in the process of melanogenesis of cultured RPE cells.

Dynamic regulation of quaternary organization of the M1 muscarinic receptor by subtype-selective antagonist drugs [PDF]

, 2016
Although rhodopsin-like G protein-coupled receptors can exist as both monomers and non-covalently associated dimers/oligomers, the steady-state proportion of each form and whether this is regulated by receptor ligands is unknown.

Evaluation of the Efficacy of Metformin in the Treatment of Acne Vulgaris and Its Effects on Serum Lipid Metabolism

Journal of Cosmetic Dermatology, Volume 24, Issue 10, October 2025.
ABSTRACT Background Acne vulgaris (AV) is a common inflammatory skin disease during adolescence. Metformin (MET) has recently been found to have the effects of regulating lipid disorders, suggesting its potential benefits in the treatment of AV patients. Method Recruited 18 patients with moderate to severe AV, and then received MET treatment (AVM group)

Intrinsic Gating Properties of a Cloned G Protein-activated Inward Rectifier K^+ Channel [PDF]

, 1995
The voltage-, time-, and K^+-dependent properties of a G protein-activated inwardly rectifying K^+ channel (GIRK1/KGA/Kir3.1) cloned from rat atrium were studied in Xenopus oocytes under two-electrode voltage clamp. During maintained G protein activation

Tumor‐Associated Sympathetic Nerves Promote the Progression of Epstein‐Barr Virus‐Positive Diffuse Large B‐Cell Lymphoma

Advanced Science, Volume 12, Issue 33, September 4, 2025.
Sympathetic nerve innervation promotes the progression of Epstein‐Barr virus‐positive diffuse large B‐cell lymphoma (EBV+ DLBCL) via β2‐adrenergic receptors. The discovery of enhanced nerve infiltration and β2AR expression reveals a novel mechanism and highlights the sympathetic–β2AR axis as a promising target for therapeutic intervention in EBV+ DLBCL.

Deciphering the skeletal interoceptive circuitry to control bone homeostasis

BMEMat, Volume 3, Issue 3, September 2025.
This review introduces the skeletal interoceptive circuitry, covering the ascending signals from bone tissues to the brain (sensors), the central neural circuits that integrate this information and dispatch commands (CPU), and the descending pathways that regulate bone homeostasis (effectors).

Spatial intensity distribution analysis: studies of G Protein-coupled receptor oligomerization [PDF]

, 2018
Spatial intensity distribution analysis (SpIDA) is a recently developed approach for determining quaternary structure information on fluorophore-labelled proteins of interest in situ. It can be applied to live or fixed cells and native tissue.
