Andrology, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Background Mammalian sperm need to undergo hyperactivation, capacitation, and acrosome reaction to achieve fertilization competence. However, the female reproductive tract presents contrasting metabolic environments. The uterus is glucose‐rich, and the oviduct is lactate‐rich and glucose‐limited.

Andrology, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Background Macrozoospermia is a rare form of teratozoospermia characterized by tetraploids, large‐headed spermatozoa with multiple flagella, usually caused by bi‐allelic AURKC mutations. The etiology of atypical phenotypes with a lower proportion of large headed spermatozoa and single flagella however often remains unresolved.

The Embryonic Development of the Cotylean Polyclad Phrikoceros jannetae
Acta Zoologica, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Polyclads exhibit distinct developmental modes ranging from direct to indirect development, with several transitional stages also recognised. The existence of an indirect developmental mode in polyclads with a planktonic life history stage in the form of a free‐swimming larva is unique among all free‐living flatworms and makes polyclads a ...

Compartmentalisation in cAMP signalling: A phase separation perspective
British Journal of Pharmacology, EarlyView.Cells rely on precise spatiotemporal control of signalling pathways to ensure functional specificity. The compartmentalisation of cyclic AMP (cAMP) and protein kinase A (PKA) signalling enables distinct cellular responses within a crowded cytoplasmic space.

British Journal of Pharmacology, EarlyView.Transient receptor potential vanilloid 1 (TRPV1) was the first noxious heat‐sensitive channel discovered. In rodents, its role is robust in the heat response of the cell body of polymodal nociceptors, but surprisingly small in that of the peripheral terminals in the skin.

British Journal of Pharmacology, EarlyView.Abstract Background and Purpose Positive allosteric modulators bind to secondary binding sites on the receptor and alter receptor conformation and activation, changing agonist potency and efficacy. PTC‐174 is a novel NMDA receptor positive allosteric modulator that particularly enhances activity of receptors containing GluN2C or GluN2D subunits.

British Journal of Pharmacology, EarlyView.Abstract Background and Purpose Radiprodil is a GluN2B subunit selective NMDA receptor negative allosteric modulator which is currently under clinical investigation as a possible anti‐epileptic drug for paediatric use. Our goal was to investigate the inhibition of dopaminergic neuron NMDA responses by radiprodil.

British Journal of Pharmacology, EarlyView.Background and Purpose Gamma‐glutamyl dipeptides are essentially produced after glutathione (GSH) degradation. While several γ‐glutamyl dipeptides have been detected in different organs and body fluids, their biological activity remains elusive. This is the case for γ‐Glutamyl‐Glycine (γ‐Glu‐Gly) which has been found in different brain areas.
