Psychedelic‐assisted treatment for substance use disorder: A narrative systematic review

open access: yesAddiction, EarlyView.
Abstract Background and aims This is the first systematic review of the extant literature on all major psychedelic‐assisted treatment for alcohol use disorder (AUD), tobacco use disorder (TUD) and other substance use disorders (SUD). We aimed to summarise the evidence for efficacy of psychedelic‐assisted treatment for AUD, TUD, and SUD; to evaluate its

Severe drug-induced repetitive behaviors and striatal overexpression of VAChT in ChAT-ChR2-EYFP BAC transgenic mice

open access: yesFrontiers in Neural Circuits, 2014
In drug users, drug-related cues alone can induce dopamine release in the dorsal striatum. Instructive cues activate inputs to the striatum from both dopaminergic and cholinergic neurons, which are thought to work together to support motor learning and ...

Caveolin-3 Promotes Nicotinic Acetylcholine Receptor Clustering and Regulates Neuromuscular Junction Activity

open access: yesMolecular Biology of the Cell, 2010
This study identifies caveolin-3 as a key component of the signaling machinery that regulates clustering of the nicotinic acetylcholine receptor and controls neuromuscular junction function.

Efficacy of combined varenicline and nicotine replacement therapy compared with varenicline or nicotine replacement therapy alone for smoking cessation: A systematic review and meta‐analysis

open access: yesAddiction, EarlyView.
Abstract Aims To assess whether combining nicotine replacement therapy (NRT) with varenicline improves long‐term smoking cessation rates compared with varenicline or NRT alone. Method Systematic review and meta‐analysis of randomized controlled trials (RCTs) or quasi‐RCTs, conducted according to PRISMA guidelines.

Regulation of Nicotinic Acetylcholine Receptor Assembly

open access: yesAnnals of the New York Academy of Sciences, 2003
Abstract: The four muscle‐type nicotinic acetylcholine receptor (AChR) subunits, α, β, γ, and δ, assemble into functional α2βγδ pentamers in the endoplasmic reticulum (ER) through a series of interdependent folding and oligomerization events. The first stable assembly intermediate is a trimer composed of α, β, and γ subunits.

Acetylcholine From Solitary Chemosensory Cell, Not Neuron, Regulates Basal Cell Fate Driving Eosinophilic Chronic Rhinosinusitis With Nasal Polyps

open access: yesAllergy, EarlyView.
This study identifies that Ach levels are elevated in eCRSwNP and primarily released from SCCs rather than neurons. Ach induces epithelial remodeling in eCRSwNP by binding to M1R/M3R and activating YAP signaling in basal cells, driving basal cell hyperplasia and abnormal differentiation. Blocking M1R/M3R with TB inhibits eCRSwNP progression.

Anti‐inflammatory effects of physical stimuli: The central role of networks in shaping the future of pharmacological research

open access: yesBritish Journal of Pharmacology, EarlyView.
Addressing complexity in the study of life sciences through Systems Biology and Systems Medicine has been transformative, making Systems Pharmacology the next logical step. In this review, we focus on physical stimuli, whose potential in pharmacology has been neglected, despite demonstrated therapeutic properties.

A novel anxiety-associated SNP identified in LYNX2 (LYPD1) is associated with decreased protein binding to nicotinic acetylcholine receptors

open access: yesFrontiers in Behavioral Neuroscience
IntroductionAnxiety disorders are among the most common mental illnesses in the US. An estimated 31.1% of U.S. adults experience any anxiety disorder at some time in their lives.
