Pain Research and Management, 2000 The relative contribution of pre- and postsynaptic controls to the flow of nociceptive information at the level of the spinal cord has been one of Ron Melzack's longstanding interests and a key issue in the formulation of the gate control theory.

Characterisation of sleep apneas and respiratory circuitry in mice lacking CDKL5
Journal of Sleep Research, Volume 34, Issue 2, April 2025.Summary CDKL5 deficiency disorder is a rare genetic disease caused by mutations in the CDKL5 gene. Central apneas during wakefulness have been reported in patients with CDKL5 deficiency disorder. Studies on CDKL5‐knockout mice, a CDKL5 deficiency disorder model, reported sleep apneas, but it is still unclear whether these events are central (central ...

Overview of the neurokinin-1 receptor antagonists
Biotarget, 2017 Neurokinin-1 (NK-1) receptor antagonists block substance P-mediated NK-1 receptors which are present in the abdominal vagus, the brainstem, and the area postrema in the brainstem. Substance P is a mammalian tachykinin that is found in vagal afferent neurons innervating the brainstem and sends impulses to the vomiting center (1). Compounds that block NK-

Photochemistry and Photobiology, EarlyView.Photobiomodulation therapy (PBMT) was evaluated across a radiant energy range (1–7.5 J) in a murine model of chronic ovalbumin‐induced asthma to identify the optimal therapeutic dose. PBMT attenuated airway inflammation and remodelling, suppressed Th2 cytokines, and enhanced regulatory immune responses, highlighting a dose‐dependent immunomodulatory ...

High‐altitude headache: Insights into pathophysiology and potential treatment implications
The Journal of Physiology, EarlyView.Abstract figure legend High‐altitude headache occurs during prolonged exposure to low oxygen, such as during ascent to high altitude. Several risk factors increase its likelihood, with the degree of hypoxia, often driven by rapid ascent to greater altitudes, being the most prominent factor.

International Journal of Cancer, Volume 159, Issue 8, Page 1990-2003, 15 October 2026.Chemotherapy‐induced nausea and vomiting (CINV) remains a significant clinical problem despite modern antiemetics. In particular, antiemetic strategies for emerging cancer therapies lack detailed evaluation. This randomized trial analyzed hourly CINV data for patients with early breast cancer who received either docetaxel plus cyclophosphamide (TC) or ...

Human substance P receptor binding mode of the antagonist drug aprepitant by NMR and crystallography
Nature Communications, 2019 The FDA approved drug aprepitant is an antagonist of the Neurokinin 1 receptor (NK1R). Here the authors present aprepitant bound NK1R crystal structures and use NMR spectroscopy to gain further insights into the dynamics of aprepitant binding, which is ...

Veterinary Medicine and Science, Volume 12, Issue 5, September 2026.Maropitant showed the most consistent controlled evidence for reducing emesis incidence in cats under perioperative or induced‐emesis conditions. Ondansetron may be beneficial in timing‐specific settings, whereas metoclopramide evidence remains insufficient for pooled inference. .

Acta Obstetricia et Gynecologica Scandinavica, Volume 105, Issue 9, Page 1823-1832, September 2026.Acute hypothalamic–pituitary–ovarian axis suppression is common in anti‐NMDAR encephalitis, yet ovarian function and fertility recover favorably even in teratoma‐associated cases, supporting reassuring long‐term reproductive prognoses. Abstract Introduction Anti‐N‐methyl‐D‐aspartate receptor (anti‐NMDAR) encephalitis predominantly affects women of ...

Substance P and NK‐1R in Dengue: A First Serological Investigation
Health Science Reports, Volume 9, Issue 8, August 2026.ABSTRACT Background Dengue fever lacks reliable biomarkers to explain its complex pathophysiology. Substance P (SP) and its receptor, the Neurokinin‐1 receptor (NK1R), known regulators of inflammation and vascular permeability in viral infections, may play a role in dengue but remain unexplored. Aim/Objective To investigate the levels of SP and NK1R in
