Stac2 genetic deletion alters mouse chromaffin cells’ CaV channel composition, increases membrane excitability and reduces vesicle exocytosis

The Journal of Physiology, EarlyView.
Abstract figure legend Stac2 adaptor protein is expressed in neurons and endocrine cells. Using a global Stac2 knockout mouse model here we investigated the role of endogenous Stac2 in adrenal gland mouse chromaffin cell (MCC) excitability and catecholamine vesicle exocytosis.

Ivermectin Toxicity in Humans and Animals: Clinical Spectrum, Mechanisms, and Management

Journal of Applied Toxicology, Volume 46, Issue 6, Page 1856-1870, June 2026.
ABSTRACT Ivermectin is a widely used macrocyclic lactone with established efficacy against a broad range of parasitic infections in humans and animals and a long‐standing reputation for clinical safety. However, increasing evidence indicates that ivermectin can produce clinically relevant toxicity under specific conditions, particularly involving the ...

Pain‐Related Smoking Expectancies Across Tobacco Product Use Patterns, Including Heated Tobacco Products: Psychometric Validation of the Japanese Pain and Smoking Inventory

Neuropsychopharmacology Reports, Volume 46, Issue 2, June 2026.
The newly validated Japanese Pain and Smoking Inventory (PSI) demonstrates that higher pain‐related smoking expectancies predict greater pain intensity and disability. Among tobacco use patterns, dual users exhibit the highest expectancies, while switchers show the lowest scores.

Combined Inhibition of TRPM4/NMDA Receptor Complex and Extrasynaptic NMDA Receptors Is Candidate Therapeutic Target for Suppression of Epileptic Seizures and Improvement of Cognitive Impairments

Pharmacology Research &Perspectives, Volume 14, Issue 3, June 2026.
ABSTRACT Cognitive impairments are important therapeutic targets in epilepsy medication; however, effective pharmacological treatments for epilepsy patients with comorbid cognitive impairment have not been established. Effects of chronic administration of MK‐801 (noncompetitive NMDA receptor inhibitor), memantine (low‐affinity extrasynaptic‐NMDA ...

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 ...

Co‐pathologies and biological processes beyond amyloid‐beta and tau in people with Alzheimer's disease: Evidence from clinical cohort studies

Journal of Internal Medicine, Volume 299, Issue 6, Page 694-710, June 2026.
Abstract Alzheimer's disease (AD) is neuropathologically defined by amyloid‐beta (Aβ) plaques and tau neurofibrillary tangles. However, co‐pathologies and other pathobiological processes are involved in the pathogenesis of AD, contributing to neurodegeneration and clinical symptoms.
