Recovery of hippocampal functions and modulation of muscarinic response by electroacupuncture in young diabetic rats

open access: yesScientific Reports, 2017
The muscarinic receptor response to acetylcholine regulates the hippocampal-related learning, memory, neural plasticity and the production and processing of the pro-nerve growth factor (proNGF) by hippocampal cells.

Novel 3D‐Printed Biophotonic Scaffold Displaying Luminescence under Near‐Infrared Light for Photopharmacological Activation and Biological Signaling Compound Release

open access: yesAdvanced Healthcare Materials, Volume 15, Issue 8, 23 February 2026.
Despite significant efforts in developing novel biomaterials to regenerate tissue, only a few of them have successfully reached clinical use. It has become clear that the next generation of biomaterials must be multifunctional. Smart biomaterials can respond to environmental or external stimuli, interact in a spatial‐temporal manner, and trigger ...

Neuro‐Immune Crosstalk: Molecular Mechanisms, Biological Functions, Diseases, and Therapeutic Targets

open access: yesMedComm, Volume 7, Issue 2, February 2026.
Neurons, immune cells, and other cellular components within the disease microenvironment (such as stromal cells and tumor cells) constitute a dynamically evolving ecosystem. Neurons directly modulate immune cell activity and inflammatory responses through the release of neurotransmitters (e.g., norepinephrine and CGRP), while also promoting tumor ...

Peripheral Nerves in Cancer: Regulatory Roles and Therapeutic Strategies

open access: yesMedComm, Volume 7, Issue 2, February 2026.
The interaction between cancer cells and peripheral nerves: (1) tumor cells could induce the growth of new neural axons and constructing a neural fiber network within the tumor tissue through secreting nerve growth factors; (2) nerve‐derived bioactive molecules can induce perineural invasion of tumor and regulate the malignant phenotype of tumor, such ...

Glial cells in the heart: Implications for their roles in health and disease

open access: yesThe Journal of Physiology, Volume 604, Issue 4, Page 1531-1546, 15 February 2026.
Abstract figure legend Schematic representation of cardiac autonomic ganglia within epicardial fat pads (posterior heart surface shown), containing vagal postganglionic neuron cell bodies, associated fibres, and glia. These ganglia receive cholinergic input from vagal preganglionic neurons and adrenergic input from sympathetic postganglionic neurons ...

Swimming against the tide: investigations of the C-Bouton synapse

open access: yesFrontiers in Neural Circuits, 2014
C-boutons are important cholinergic modulatory loci for state-dependent alterations in motoneuron firing rate. Type 2 muscarinic acetylcholine (m2) receptors are concentrated postsynaptic to C-boutons, and m2 receptor activation increases motoneuron ...

Acetylcholine Release Inhibits Distinct Excitatory Inputs Onto Hippocampal CA1 Pyramidal Neurons via Different Cellular and Network Mechanisms

open access: yesFrontiers in Cellular Neuroscience, 2019
In hippocampal CA1, muscarinic acetylcholine (ACh) receptor (mAChR) activation via exogenous application of cholinergic agonists has been shown to presynaptically inhibit Schaffer collateral (SC) glutamatergic inputs in stratum radiatum (SR), and ...

Novel long-range inhibitory nNOS-expressing hippocampal cells

open access: yeseLife, 2019
The hippocampus, a brain region that is important for spatial navigation and episodic memory, benefits from a rich diversity of neuronal cell-types. Through the use of an intersectional genetic viral vector approach in mice, we report novel hippocampal ...
