Endothelial TRPV4–Cx43 signalling complex regulates vasomotor tone in resistance arteries
Abstract figure legend In this study, we investigate, for the first time, the role of endothelial Cx43 hemichannels (hCx43) in the regulation of vasomotor tone. We discovered that TRPV4 channels and Cx43 are in proximity within the endothelium of mouse arterioles.

Abstract Background and Purpose Several G protein‐coupled receptors (GPCRs) are known to homodimerise. Dimeric GPCRs may have different properties from their monomers, but the molecular basis and functional significance of GPCR dimerisation remain largely unknown.

Muscarinic Receptor Agonists and Antagonists: Effects on Cancer [PDF]
Many epithelial and endothelial cells express a cholinergic autocrine loop in which acetylcholine acts as a growth factor to stimulate cell growth. Cancers derived from these tissues similarly express a cholinergic autocrine loop and ACh secreted by the cancer or neighboring cells interacts with M3 muscarinic receptors expressed on the cancer cells to ...

Objective Systemic sclerosis (SSc) is a rare but severe autoimmune disease characterized by immune dysregulation, fibrosis, and vasculopathy. Although previous studies have highlighted the presence of functional autoantibodies targeting the angiotensin II receptor type 1 (AT1) and endothelin‐1 type A receptor (ETAR), leading to autoantibody‐mediated ...

The Interplay of Cross‐Organ Immune Regulation in Inflammation and Cancer
Organs interact dynamically through immune regulation, influencing systemic immune responses and disease progression. We review molecular and cellular mechanisms of cross‐organ immune regulation in inflammation and cancer, focusing on gut, liver, and brain interactions with other organs.

Abstract Autism spectrum disorders (ASDs) are diagnosed in 1/100 children worldwide, based on two core symptoms: deficits in social interaction and communication, and stereotyped behaviours. G protein‐coupled receptors (GPCRs) are the largest family of cell‐surface receptors that transduce extracellular signals to convergent intracellular signalling ...

Tetra‐ortho‐Azobenzenes (TOABs) in broad daylight: in recent years, TOAB photoswitches became indispensable tools for all‐visible‐light manipulation of chemistry, biology and materials. This review explores their unique photochemical properties, design and synthetic approaches, offering support in choosing a TOAB for a given application.
