Molecular Tools to Study and Control Dopaminergic Neurotransmission With Light
ABSTRACT Dopaminergic neurotransmission is involved in several important brain functions, such as motor control, learning, reward‐motivated behavior, and emotions. Dysfunctions of dopaminergic system may lead to the development of various neurological and psychiatric disorders, like Parkinson's disease, schizophrenia, depression, and addictions ...

β3‐Adrenoceptor Agonist Effects on the Urinary Bladder Beyond Detrusor Relaxation
ABSTRACT Aims β3‐Adrenoceptor agonists such as mirabegron or vibegron reach pharmacokinetic steady‐state within a few days. However, maximum improvements in symptoms of the overactive bladder syndrome are reached at time points later than 4 weeks, that is, detrusor smooth muscle relaxation cannot fully explain clinical effects.

How adaptation currents change threshold, gain and variability of neuronal spiking [PDF]
Many types of neurons exhibit spike rate adaptation, mediated by intrinsic slow $\mathrm{K}^+$-currents, which effectively inhibit neuronal responses. How these adaptation currents change the relationship between in-vivo like fluctuating synaptic input, spike rate output and the spike train statistics, however, is not well understood.

ABSTRACT Background Metformin shows potential in combating clozapine‐induced weight gain (CIWG). However, current evidence for its use remains limited. Through an audit we determined the prevalence of metformin use among clozapine‐treated patients and its impact on weight and waist circumference (WC).

Turbulent mixing controls fixation of growing antagonistic populations [PDF]
Unlike coffee and cream that homogenize when stirred, growing micro-organisms (e.g., bacteria, baker's yeast) can actively kill each other and avoid mixing. How do such antagonistic interactions impact the growth and survival of competing strains, while being spatially advected by turbulent flows? By using numerical simulations of a continuum model, we

Head‐To‐Head Comparison of Biologic Efficacy in Asthma: What Have We Learned?
ABSTRACT We performed an in‐depth appraisal of indirect head‐to‐head comparisons of biologics approved for asthma, including anti‐IL5/5Rα (mepolizumab, benralizumab), anti‐IL4Rα (dupilumab), anti‐TSLP (tezepelumab) and anti‐IgE (omalizumab), which was neither a systematic review nor a meta‐analysis.
