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

Allergy, 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.

Evaluation of the cholinomimetic actions of trimethylsulfonium, a compound present in the midgut gland of the sea hare Aplysia brasiliana (Gastropoda, Opisthobranchia)

Brazilian Journal of Medical and Biological Research, 2002
Trimethylsulfonium, a compound present in the midgut gland of the sea hare Aplysia brasiliana, negatively modulates vagal response, indicating a probable ability to inhibit cholinergic responses.

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

British 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.

Molecular basis for a pore block of Tentonin 3 expressed in HEK293 cells by a conopeptide, NMB‐1

British Journal of Pharmacology, EarlyView.
Background and Purpose Tentonin 3 (TTN3/TMEM150C) is a mechanosensitive ion channel that plays critical roles in mechanotransduction processes. TTN3 forms a tetramer with a predicted rectangular shape and a central pore. A conotoxin ρ‐TIA and its synthetic analog, noxious mechanosensation blocker 1 (NMB‐1), were initially developed to inhibit slowly ...

Microscopic and molecular aspects of skeletal muscle alterations in cerebral palsy

Developmental Medicine &Child Neurology, EarlyView.
Cerebral palsy, caused by non‐progressive brain injury, is frequently accompanied by skeletal muscle alterations. This review synthesizes current evidence from muscle biopsy studies, revealing cellular and molecular adaptations in muscle tissue. Abstract Cerebral palsy (CP), the most prevalent childhood‐onset motor disability, frequently entails ...

Editorial Perspective: Smoking, vaping and mental health – a perspective on potential causal mechanisms

Journal of Child Psychology and Psychiatry, EarlyView.
This editorial perspective focuses on the complex relationship of cigarette smoking and e‐cigarette use (‘vaping’) with mental health problems. It is challenging to reliably determine the causal nature of these associations because both (e‐)smoking and mental health problems generally arise during adolescence, and both are highly multifactorial in ...

Dual impact of smoking cessation and post‐cessation weight change on psoriasis

Journal of the European Academy of Dermatology and Venereology, EarlyView.
Although smoking cessation generally reduced the risk of psoriasis, especially psoriasis vulgaris and palmoplantar pustulosis, post‐cessation weight gain weakened this benefit, mainly for psoriasis vulgaris. Nonetheless, cessation maintained a substantial protective effect against palmoplantar pustulosis, and long‐term advantages outweighed the adverse

Gene therapy for epilepsy: An emerging, promising approach for a serious neurological disorder

Journal of Internal Medicine, EarlyView.
Abstract Gene therapy is emerging as a groundbreaking strategy for treating epilepsy, offering new hope to patients who do not respond to conventional medications. Despite advancements in anti‐seizure treatments, nearly 30%–40% of individuals with epilepsy continue to experience uncontrolled seizures, highlighting the urgent need for more effective and
