Structure and dynamics of dynorphin peptide and its receptor [PDF]
arXiv, 2019 Dynorphin is a neuropeptide involved in pain, addiction and mood regulation. It exerts its activity by binding to the kappa opioid receptor (KOP) which belongs to the large family of G-protein coupled receptors. The dynorphin peptide was discovered in 1975, while its receptor was cloned in 1993.

Effect of E-cigarette Use and Social Network on Smoking Behavior Change: An agent-based model of E-cigarette and Cigarette Interaction [PDF]
arXiv, 2019 Despite a general reduction in smoking in many areas of the developed world, it remains one of the biggest public health threats. As an alternative to tobacco, the use of electronic cigarettes (ECig) has been increased dramatically over the last decade. ECig use is hypothesized to impact smoking behavior through several pathways, not only as a means of

Anxious Dads and Depressed Moms: Child Disability and the Mental Health of Parents
Health Economics, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Having a child with a disability undoubtedly affects parents in many ways, including their well‐being. However, the specific mental health trajectories of parents, differentiated by the severity of impairments and parental roles, remain under‐explored. We investigate the mental‐health effects of having a child with a disability.
