Neuroimmune interactions: The bridge between inflammatory bowel disease and the gut microbiota
The gut microbiota regulates the gut–brain–immune axis, modulating neuroimmune interactions in inflammatory bowel disease (IBD). Microbiota‐derived metabolites influence immune cells, driving cytokine release that activates dorsal root ganglion (DRG) neurons.

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

Using molecular dynamics for the refinement of atomistic models of GPCRs by homology modeling [PDF]
Despite GPCRs sharing a common seven helix bundle, analysis of the diverse crystallographic structures available reveal specific features that might be relevant for ligand design.

Modulation of c-Jun NH2-Terminal (JNK) by Cholinergic Autoantibodies from Patients with Sjögren’s Syndrome [PDF]
Background: We wanted to determine (via an immunopharmacological approach) whether the c-Jun NH2 terminal kinase (JNK) cascade is phosphorylated in the submandibular gland by carbachol and cholinergic autoantibodies (IgG) present in the sera of patients ...

Calcium Mobilization by Activation of M3/M5 Muscarinic Receptors in the Human Retinoblastoma
Activation of muscarinic acetylcholine receptors (mAChR) is one of the most important signal transduction pathways in the human body. In this study, we investigated the role of mAChR activation in relation to its subtypes in human retinoblastoma cell ...
