Cyclic nucleotide-gated channels: structural basis of ligand efficacy and allosteric modulation [PDF]
, 1997 Most working proteins, including metabolic enzymes, transcription regulators, and membrane receptors, transporters, and ion channels, share the property of allosteric coupling. The term 'allosteric' means that these proteins mediate indirect interactions

Methamphetamine-Like Discriminative-Stimulus Effects of Nicotinic Agonists [PDF]
The Journal of Pharmacology and Experimental Therapeutics, 2014 Nicotine was recently shown to engender d-methamphetamine (MA)-like discriminative-stimulus effects in rats, which may be indicative of shared psychomotor stimulant properties. To further investigate such overlapping discriminative-stimulus effects, nicotinic agonists varying in efficacy and selectivity were studied in squirrel monkeys that ...

Ibrain, EarlyView.Chemotherapy‐induced peripheral neuropathy (CIPN) remains a major clinical challenge, with central sensitization considered an important pathological mechanism in its occurrence and persistence. This review focuses on spinal astrocytes and microglia, systematically summarizing the pathological mechanisms of spinal glial cells involved in CIPN caused by

Venomous secretions from marine snails of the Terebridae family target acetylcholine receptors [PDF]
, 2013 Venoms from cone snails (Conidae) have been extensively studied during the last decades, but those from other members of the suborder Toxoglossa, such as of Terebridae and Turridae superfamilies attracted less interest so far. Here, we report the effects

Caenorhabditis elegans muscle Cys-loop receptors as novel targets of terpenoids with potential anthelmintic activity [PDF]
, 2019 The anthelmintic treatment of nematode infections remains the pillar of worm control in both human and veterinary medicine. Since control is threatened by the appearance of drug resistant nematodes, there is a need to develop novel compounds, among which

Movement Disorders, EarlyView.Abstract Background Anxiety and autonomic dysfunction are frequent non‐motor symptoms of Parkinson's disease (PD). Their relationship, as well as the neural mechanisms underlying this relationship, remain unexplored. Objectives We aimed to investigate the relationship between cardiovascular functions and anxiety in PD and the structural neural changes ...
