Perinatal Exposure to the Neonicotinoid Thiacloprid Impacts Transcription of Neuroplasticity and Neuroendocrine Markers in Mice but Not in the Zebrafish Model

Journal of Applied Toxicology, Volume 46, Issue 1, Page 179-197, January 2026.
ABSTRACT Neonicotinoids are widely used insecticides in agriculture, aquaculture, pet care, and urban pest control. Initially developed to selectively target the insect cholinergic system, their extensive use has raised concerns about adverse effects on nontarget vertebrates.

Navigating Solute Carrier Transporters—A Comprehensive Review of Functionalized Small Molecule Probes for Target Identification and Characterization

Medicinal Research Reviews, Volume 46, Issue 1, Page 238-271, January 2026.
ABSTRACT Solute carrier transporters (SLCs) are integral membrane proteins that play pivotal roles in maintaining cellular homeostasis by mediating the transport of a diverse range of substrates across cell membranes. With their involvement in fundamental physiological processes such as nutrient uptake, neurotransmitter signaling, and drug transport ...

Vagus Nerve Stimulation in Autoimmune Conditions: A Systematic Review

ACR Open Rheumatology, Volume 7, Issue 12, December 2025.
Objective Systemic autoimmune conditions are characterized by increased inflammation and high disease burden. Vagus nerve stimulation (VNS) is known to activate the cholinergic anti‐inflammatory pathway and can serve as a potential therapeutic modality for autoimmune conditions. This study aimed to conduct a preregistered systematic review to determine

Harnessing Photo‐Energy Conversion in Nanomaterials for Precision Theranostics

Advanced Materials, Volume 37, Issue 48, December 3, 2025.
Harnessing photo‐energy conversion in nanomaterials enables precision theranostics through light‐driven mechanisms such as photoluminescence, photothermal, photoelectric, photoacoustic, photo‐triggered surface‐enhanced Raman scattering (SERS), and photodynamic processes. This review explores six fundamental principles of photo‐energy conversion, recent
