What is the incidence and clinical significance of dry eye disease in patients treated with immune checkpoint inhibitors? A systematic review and meta‐analysis of ocular immune‐related adverse events

Acta Ophthalmologica, EarlyView.
Abstract Purpose Immune checkpoint inhibitors (ICIs) have transformed cancer therapy but may cause immune‐related adverse events (irAEs), including dry eye disease (DED). This study aimed to quantify the incidence of ICI‐associated DED and to evaluate factors contributing to variability across studies.

Autoradiography of 3H-pirenzepine and 3H-AFDX-384 in Mouse Brain Regions: Possible Insights into M1, M2, and M4 Muscarinic Receptors Distribution

Frontiers in Pharmacology, 2018
Autoradiography helps to determine the distribution and density of muscarinic receptor (MR) binding sites in the brain. However, it relies on the selectivity of radioligands toward their target.

Ligand-guided homology modeling drives identification of novel histamine H3 receptor ligands [PDF]

, 2019
In this study, we report a ligand-guided homology modeling approach allowing the analysis of relevant binding site residue conformations and the identification of two novel histamine H3 receptor ligands with binding affinity in the nanomolar range.

The amino terminal domain of the human α7 nicotinic acetylcholine receptor subunit leads to the functional expression of human/insect receptors

British Journal of Pharmacology, EarlyView.
Human α7 receptors have been characterised in terms of pharmacological properties. Insertion of the N‐terminal domain of the human α7 subunit leads to honeybee and cockroach chimeric receptors activated by ACh and inhibited by α‐Bgt. Insertion of the human cys‐loop leads to cockroach chimeric receptors modulated by PNU.

Therapeutic potential of small molecules that block receptor‐induced Kv7/M‐current suppression in neuroprotection, seizures, and pain

British Journal of Pharmacology, EarlyView.
Receptor‐induced Kv7/M‐current suppression increases neuronal activity and contributes to pathology of several conditions. A new class of Kv7 modulators identified in this study attenuates M‐current suppression and shows therapeutic effects. Abstract Background and Purpose Neuronal Kv7 channels generate low voltage–gated potassium currents known as the

Role of K+ Channels in M2 Muscarinic Receptor-Mediated Inhibition of Noradrenaline Release From the Rat Stomach

Journal of Pharmacological Sciences, 2004
Previously we reported the cholinergic M2 muscarinic receptor-mediated inhibition of noradrenaline release from the rat stomach (K. Yokotani, Y. Osumi. J Pharmacol Exp Ther. 1993;264:54–60).

Physiological concentrations of bile acids down-regulate agonist induced secretion in colonic epithelial cells [PDF]

, 2009
In patients with bile acid malabsorption, high concentrations of bile acids enter the colon and stimulate Cl− and fluid secretion, thereby causing diarrhoea. However, deoxycholic acid (DCA), the predominant colonic bile acid, is normally present at lower

Management of an uncommon complication using botulinum toxin type A following prosthetic laryngoplasty

Equine Veterinary Education, EarlyView.
Summary An uncommon complication following prosthetic laryngoplasty was reported in a 4‐year‐old Andalusian mare. The mare was presented with a previously diagnosed left‐sided recurrent laryngeal neuropathy, after initial evaluation the mare underwent ventriculocordectomy and prosthetic laryngoplasty.

Phospholipase C Involvement in Activation of the Muscarinic Receptor-Operated Cationic Current in Guinea Pig Ileal Smooth Muscle Cells

Journal of Pharmacological Sciences, 2004
In guinea pig single ileal smooth muscle cells held under voltage-clamp, the role of phospholipase C (PLC) in activation of the muscarinic receptor-operated cationic current (Icat) was studied. U73122, a PLC inhibitor, prevented the generation of Icat by

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

, 2008
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.
