Whole‐Brain Monosynaptic Inputs and Outputs of Corticotropin‐Releasing Hormone Neurons of the Paraventricular Nucleus of the Hypothalamus in Male Mice

open access: yesCNS Neuroscience &Therapeutics, Volume 32, Issue 9, September 2026.
Using rabies‐based monosynaptic retrograde tracing and AAV anterograde labeling, this study maps the brain‐wide inputs and outputs of PVN CRH neurons, identifying them as a key hub coordinating stress, autonomic, and behavioral responses. ABSTRACT Objective The paraventricular nucleus of the hypothalamus (PVN) is a central hub integrating ...

Smoking Abstinence Elicits Hyperalgesia: Neural Mechanism, Clinical Implications, and Pharmacological Managements

open access: yesCNS Neuroscience &Therapeutics, Volume 32, Issue 9, September 2026.
The cycle between nicotine use and pain modulation. Cigarette smoking leads to nicotine entering the body, which binds to nicotinic acetylcholine receptors (nAChRs) in the brain, triggering the release of different neurotransmitters, including dopamine (DA), norepinephrine (NE), serotonin (5‐HT), and GABA.

Combination Pharmacotherapies for Obesity—Current Evidence and Future Directions

open access: yesEndocrinology, Diabetes &Metabolism, Volume 9, Issue 5, September 2026.
Combination pharmacotherapy for obesity can enhance weight loss by targeting complementary neuroendocrine and metabolic pathways. Such benefits are largely additive but limited by tolerability, cost and access. This review outlines practical clinical archetypes and a research agenda for safer, more precise and durable combination strategies across ...

Immediate early gene expression in the mesopontine tegmentum and midbrain after acute or chronic nicotine administration [PDF]

open access: yes, 2008
The reinforcing properties of nicotine depend partly on cholinergic projections from the pedunculopontine tegmental (PPTg) and laterodorsal tegmental (LDTg) nuclei to midbrain dopamine neurons in the ventral tegmental area (VTA) and substantia nigra pars

Leptin Reduces Running in a Rodent Anorexia Nervosa Model via a Distributed Neural Network

open access: yesEuropean Eating Disorders Review, Volume 34, Issue 5, Page 1314-1326, September 2026.
ABSTRACT Objective Hyperactivity is a persistent and clinically relevant symptom in anorexia nervosa (AN). Hyperactivity is inversely correlated with leptin levels. While systemic leptin administration attenuates hyperactivity in rodent models, the specific brain regions mediating this effect remain unclear.

The Role of Hippocampal Interneuron Migration in Neurodevelopmental Disorders: A Systematic Review

open access: yesHippocampus, Volume 36, Issue 5, September 2026.
ABSTRACT Hippocampal abnormalities are frequently associated with neurodevelopmental disorders as interneurons are crucial in establishing the network connectivity of neurons. This systematic review analyzed primary literature with a focus on aberrant hippocampal interneuron migration as an etiology for neurodevelopmental disorders, summarizing the ...

The Human Subiculum and Its Role in Spatiotemporal Memory and Mental Imagery

open access: yesHippocampus, Volume 36, Issue 5, September 2026.
ABSTRACT Traditionally viewed as a mere relay station of the hippocampal formation, the subiculum is emerging as a computational hub of the medial temporal lobe, essential for multiplexed neural representations guiding behavior. While foundational animal research has revealed that its sophisticated cytoarchitecture allows for conjunctive coding of ...

Psilocybin, From Ancestral Use to Therapeutic Potential: A Multidimensional Review of Its Pharmacological Basis and Current Perspectives

open access: yesHuman Psychopharmacology: Clinical and Experimental, Volume 41, Issue 5, September 2026.
ABSTRACT Objective This review critically examines psilocybin, with particular emphasis on its pharmacokinetics and pharmacodynamics, including its serotonergic, neuroplastic, and anti‐inflammatory mechanisms. It integrates historical context, preclinical and clinical evidence, and evaluates emerging therapeutic potential, safety, microdosing practices,

The Evolution of Medications for Obesity Management

open access: yesJGH Open, Volume 10, Issue 9, September 2026.
ABSTRACT This narrative review provides an overview of progress in the development of obesity medications, including a synthesis of data describing the efficacy and safety of currently available agents and emerging therapeutic options. Historically, many obesity medications have been withdrawn from the market due to safety concerns.

Differential effect of NMDA receptor antagonist in the nucleus accumbens on reconsolidation of morphine -related positive and aversive memory in rats

open access: yes, 2012
Dysfunctional reconsolidation processes may help drug memories resist extinction and contribute to high rate of relapse. Reconsolidation of drug memory is mainly affected by the appetitive and aversive emotional experiences associated with an addictive ...
