Sequencing of rabies binding region on nicotinic acteylcholine receptor alpha subunits in four host species [PDF]
• Rabies virus is known to bind to nicotinic acetylcholine receptors (nAchR) • The virus is known to bind to alpha 1 subunits nAchR • The virus binding region has been characterized in alpha 1 subunits of these receptors • Little research has been ...

Our study elucidates the cellular and molecular mechanisms underlying KYNA's protective effects against HIRI. It emphasises that KYNA modulates the methylation status of the Hippo signalling pathway through the activation of AHR, thereby mitigating damage by promoting LATS1 degradation and facilitating the nuclear translocation of YAP. ABSTRACT Hepatic

Corticotropin‐releasing factor (CRF) and its type 1 receptor (CRF1) are expressed in the rat colon. The vagal nodose ganglion transmits visceral information to the brain; but whether the CRF/CRF1 system is involved in vagal afferent function remains unknown.

Is Adipose Tissue Inflammation the Culprit of Obesity‐Associated Comorbidities?
ABSTRACT In individuals with obesity, the onset of chronic comorbidities coincides with the excessive accumulation of adipose tissue in various tissue beds. As obesity progresses, adipose tissue becomes increasingly dysfunctional causing chronic low‐grade inflammation.

Weight Loss‐Associated Remodeling of Adipose Tissue Immunometabolism
ABSTRACT Obesity is a multifactorial condition characterized by excessive adiposity and systemic chronic low‐grade inflammation. Recent literature reflects a growing appreciation for the complex interplay between metabolism and the immune system in the pathogenesis of obesity‐related health conditions.

Autoantibodies and Inflammation in Schizophrenia
The potential role of autoantibodies in the etiology of schizophrenia is a key research focus because growing evidence suggests an association between immune dysfunction and psychotic disorders. This hypothesis is supported by findings indicating immune‐related abnormalities in patients with schizophrenia, including chronic inflammation and genetic ...
