Muscarinic agonists for schizophrenia: Bridging preclinical evidence and clinical enthusiasm
Abstract Antipsychotic drugs targeting dopamine receptors have been used to treat schizophrenia for decades, primarily alleviating positive symptoms such as hallucinations and delusions. However, they provide limited benefit for cognitive and negative symptoms—major contributors to poor outcomes—and are frequently associated with significant side ...

Abstract A recent study showed that female medaka lacking the estrogen receptor gene esr2b are unreceptive to male courtship and instead court other females. In this study, we investigated the brain transcriptome of esr2b‐deficient females to explore the underlying mechanisms of this behavioral phenotype, and identified npyb, one of the two ...

The Skin‐Lightening Efficacy and Mechanisms of Botanical Extracts: A Comprehensive Review
ABSTRACT Background Skin pigmentation is regulated by a complex network involving melanogenesis, melanosome transfer, oxidative stress, environmental stimuli, and epidermal turnover. Botanical extracts and phytochemicals have attracted increasing interest as potential skin‐lightening agents. This review evaluates their efficacy, mechanisms, and safety.

Abstract This study evaluated the effects of different dietary methionine (Met) levels on the feeding, growth, and protein metabolism of Chinese perch, Siniperca chuatsi. Six diets containing graded levels of Met (0.88%, 1.11%, 1.68%, 2.02%, 2.27%, and 2.72%) were fed to fish (initial weight: 13.74 ± 0.12 g) for 8 weeks.
