Serotonin engages divergent 5‐HT receptor pathways for cell type‐resolved modulation of prefrontal layer 5 microcircuits

open access: yesBritish Journal of Pharmacology, EarlyView.
Serotonin differentially modulates layer 5 mPFC microcircuits through cell type‐specific pre‐ and postsynaptic receptor pathways. Presynaptic 5‐HT1BRs suppress glutamate and GABA release, whereas presynaptic and postsynaptic 5‐HT3ARs enhance fast‐spiking interneuron activity, whilst distinct pyramidal neuron subtypes exhibit divergent 5‐HT1AR‐ and 5 ...

Muscarinic agonists for schizophrenia: Bridging preclinical evidence and clinical enthusiasm

open access: yesBritish Journal of Pharmacology, EarlyView.
Abstract Antipsychotic drugs targeting dopamine receptors have been used to treat schizophrenia for decades, primarily alleviating positive symptoms such as hallucinations and delusions. However, they provide limited benefit for cognitive and negative symptoms—major contributors to poor outcomes—and are frequently associated with significant side ...

Comprehensive in vitro profiling of traditional and emerging stimulants at monoamine transporters and the 5‐HT2A receptor

open access: yesBritish Journal of Pharmacology, EarlyView.
A pharmacological profiling of 58 synthetic stimulants of various classes at dopamine, norepinephrine, and serotonin transporters and the 5‐HT2A receptor, most showing distinct class‐dependent profiles, with some indicating a high abuse potential. Background and Purpose New psychoactive substances (NPSs) often emerge on the illicit drug market with ...

ADAM17 and its proteolytic targets in disease pathogenesis

open access: yesThe FEBS Journal, EarlyView.
ADAM17 as a multifunctional sheddase with contrasting roles across inflammatory, metabolic, cardiovascular, and neoplastic diseases. Through regulated activation by iRhom, iTAP/FRMD8, and tetraspanins, ADAM17 cleaves diverse membrane ligands and receptors, thereby promoting inflammation, fibrosis, obesity, insulin resistance, and tumor progression ...

Pathophysiology and emerging treatments for dermographic, cholinergic and cold urticaria

open access: yesJournal of the European Academy of Dermatology and Venereology, EarlyView.
This review illustrates key proposed mast cell‐mediated activation pathways in dermographic, cholinergic and cold urticaria, highlighting IgE‐dependent and ‐independent mechanisms. These pathways are increasingly targeted by emerging drugs, aiming to interrupt mast cell activation and mediator release, offering more precise, mechanism‐based treatment ...

Arctic lake trout (Salvelinus namaycush) show evidence of seasonal acclimation of cardiac adrenergic sensitivity but not heat tolerance

open access: yesJournal of Fish Biology, EarlyView.
Abstract Many Arctic fishes experience prolonged periods of extreme cold and large thermal variation over both rapid and seasonal time scales which challenge critical physiological functions. In the central Canadian Arctic, we caught wild adult lake trout (Salvelinus namaycush) acclimatized to winter and summer temperatures to determine the extent to ...

Lower density of calretinin‐immunopositive neurons in the putamen of subjects with schizophrenia

open access: yesJournal of Anatomy, Volume 246, Issue 4, Page 505-516, April 2025.
Recent neuroimaging and histological studies highlight the striatum as a key area involved in SCH, but the specific impairment of neuronal subtypes in subcortical structures is not fully understood. This study is the first detailed investigation of neuroanatomical changes in the putamen in SCH, specifically examining the density of calretinin ...

Impact of TCAs and Gabapentin on Saliva and BMI in Adults With Xerostomia

open access: yesJournal of Oral Rehabilitation, EarlyView.
In adults with medication‐related xerostomia, tricyclic antidepressant and gabapentin use were not independently associated with BMI or oral dryness after adjustment. Instead, female sex, anticholinergic burden, obstructive sleep apnea, GERD, thyroid disease, depression and race demonstrated stronger associations with reduced salivary flow and greater ...

Management of Paediatric Acute Asthma in a Metropolitan Emergency Department: A Retrospective Audit

open access: yesJournal of Paediatrics and Child Health, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Aim To evaluate adherence to the Sydney Children's Hospital Network (SCHN) Asthma‐Acute Management Practice Guideline in the management of paediatric patients presenting to a metropolitan emergency department (ED). Methods A cross‐sectional retrospective audit of 153 paediatric ED presentations with acute asthma between March 2023 and February
