Maternal gut microbiota‐derived daidzein prevents osteoporosis in female offspring following prenatal prednisone exposure

iMeta, EarlyView.
Prenatal prednisone therapy (PPT)/prenatal prednisone exposure (PPE) induces long bone dysplasia, reduced peak bone mass (PBM), and increased osteoporosis susceptibility in female offspring. Maternal gut microbiota metabolite daidzein (DAI) mediates PPE‐induced osteoporosis susceptibility in female adult offspring.

Evidence Regarding E‐Cigarettes as a Harm Reduction Strategy and Treatment for E‐Cigarette Cessation: An Overview and Guide for Clinicians

JACCP: JOURNAL OF THE AMERICAN COLLEGE OF CLINICAL PHARMACY, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Since their emergence on the United States market in the early 2000s, e‐cigarette accessibility and use have grown considerably. Electronic cigarettes (e‐cigarettes), also referred to as vapes or electronic nicotine delivery systems, deliver their contents by heating and aerosolizing an “e‐liquid” that is then inhaled.

Developmental synaptic changes at the transient olivocochlear-inner hair cell synapse [PDF]

, 2019
In the mature mammalian cochlea, inner hair cells (IHCs) are mainly innervated by afferent fibers that convey sound information to the CNS. During postnatal development, however, medial olivocochlear (MOC) efferent fibers transiently innervate the IHCs ...

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, EarlyView.
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.

High Throughput Random Mutagenesis and Single Molecule Real Time Sequencing of the Muscle Nicotinic Acetylcholine Receptor. [PDF]

PLoS ONE, 2016
High throughput random mutagenesis is a powerful tool to identify which residues are important for the function of a protein, and gain insight into its structure-function relation.

Antiamnesic activity of the nicotinic agonist DBO-83 in mice [PDF]

Drug Development Research, 1998
The effect of administration of DBO-83 on memory processes was evaluated in the mouse passive avoidance test. DBO-83 (1–5 mgkg–1 ip) prevented amnesia induced by scopolamine (1.5 mgkg–1 ip), mecamylamine (20 mgkg–1 ip) and dihydro-β-erythroidine (10 μg per mouse i.c.v.). In the same experimental conditions, DBO-83 (10 mgkg–1 ip) also prevented baclofen

A fluorophore attached to nicotinic acetylcholine receptor beta M2 detects productive binding of agonist to the alpha delta site [PDF]

, 2004
To study conformational transitions at the muscle nicotinic acetylcholine (ACh) receptor (nAChR), a rhodamine fluorophore was tethered to a Cys side chain introduced at the beta-19' position in the M2 region of the nAChR expressed in Xenopus oocytes ...

Stromal cell‐derived factor‐1 regulates expression of vascular endothelial growth factor and osteopontin after tooth extraction

Journal of Periodontology, EarlyView.
Abstract Background The present study aimed to investigate the expression of stromal cell‐derived factor‐1 (SDF‐1) after tooth extraction in rats and its regulatory effect on the expression of osteopontin (OPN) and vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF).

Defining nicotinic agonist binding surfaces through photoaffinity labeling.

Biochemistry, 2007
Nicotinic acetylcholine (ACh) receptor (nAChR) agonists are potential therapeutic agents for neurological dysfunction. In the present study, the homopentameric mollusk ACh binding protein (AChBP), used as a surrogate for the extracellular ligand-binding ...
