Bidirectional genetic and phenotypic links between smoking and striatal iron content involving dopaminergic and inflammatory pathways

Addiction, Volume 121, Issue 6, Page 1580-1593, June 2026.
Abstract Background and aims Tobacco smoking is a major risk factor for cardiovascular and lung diseases. A better understanding of its neurobiological underpinnings will benefit the prevention of smoking‐related illnesses and mortality. Previous studies link smoking to increased iron concentration in the striatum, a central component of the brain's ...

tVNS Mitigates Neuroinflammation and Nociception in a Rodent LPS Endotoxemia Model

Clinical and Translational Science, Volume 19, Issue 6, June 2026.
Experimental design and key findings. Four groups (Control+Sham, Control+tVNS, LPS+Sham, LPS+tVNS; n = 7 each) underwent serum ELISA, brain Western blot, and behavioral testing. tVNS altered serum Haptoglobin, IL‐6, CGRP1, and VE‐Cadherin levels, reversed LPS‐induced increases in brain IL‐1β, HMGB1, Haptoglobin, PAR‐2, and CGRP, and alleviated LPS ...

Enhancing Dopamine Accumulation in Secretory Vesicles of PC12 Cells: Mechanisms, Applications and Limitations

Journal of Neurochemistry, Volume 170, Issue 6, June 2026.
Schematic representation of a large dense‐core vesicle in PC12 cells highlighting its main molecular organization. The diagram illustrates the presence of membrane transporters, proton pumps and intravesicular matrix proteins that establish the electrochemical gradients required for neurotransmitter uptake, vesicle acidification and efficient storage ...
