Prediabetic cardiomyopathy is attenuated by hypothalamic PVN oxytocin neuron activation

open access: yesThe Journal of Physiology, EarlyView.
Abstract figure legend A long‐term high‐fat, high‐fructose diet induces prediabetes with insulin resistance, hyperinsulinaemia, elevated triglycerides and metabolic‐associated steatotic liver disease (MASLD) in male rats. Animals developed prediabetic cardiomyopathy characterized by diastolic dysfunction, interstitial fibrosis and tachycardia ...

Electromechanical modelling and simulation of human‐induced pluripotent stem cell‐derived cardiomyocytes predict drug‐induced contractility effects

open access: yesThe Journal of Physiology, EarlyView.
Abstract figure legend A study described in this paper describes a new tool for hiPSC‐CM electromechanical behaviour simulations using mathematical modelling. The model enables in silico assays making drug testing quick, comprehensive and accurate. New hiPSC‐CM models can be used as a platform to integrate in vitro and in silico findings.

Role of the thalamic parafascicular nucleus cholinergic system in the modulation of acute corneal nociception in rats [PDF]

open access: yesVeterinary Research Forum, 2011
The present study investigated the effects of microinjections of acetylcholine (a cholinergic agonist), physostigmine (a cholinesterase inhibitor), atropine (an antagonist of muscarinic cholinergic receptors) and hexamethonium (an antagonist of nicotinic

Molecular mechanism of human α1A-adrenoceptor inhibition by Mamba snake toxin AdTx1

open access: yesCommunications Biology
There is growing interest in peptide or small protein based drugs targeting G protein-coupled receptors (GPCRs) for improved subtype selectivity over small molecules. Naturally occurring toxins represent rich sources of such ligands.

Parasympathetic overdrive as a cause of overactive bladder in a high‐fat‐diet‐induced obesity mouse model

open access: yesThe Journal of Physiology, EarlyView.
Abstract figure legend Obesity and metabolic syndrome (MetS) are well‐known major risk factors for overactive bladder (OAB). Mechanisms underlying obesity‐/MetS‐associated OAB were explored using a high‐fat‐diet (HFD)‐induced obesity mouse model. HFD‐induced obesity/MetS mice developed an OAB phenotype characterized by enlarged non‐voiding contractions
