GLP‐1 at the Metabolic–Cognitive Interface: Reward, Affect, and Memory

open access: yesComprehensive Physiology, Volume 16, Issue 2, April 2026.
GLP‐1R signaling integrates metabolic state with neural circuits controlling reward, mood, and memory, acting as a metabolic‐cognitive interface. In reward pathways, it suppresses hedonic feeding and drug seeking; in affective circuits, sustained signaling promotes anxiolytic and antidepressant effects; and in the hippocampus, it enhances synaptic ...

Unraveling Chronic Pain: From Mechanisms and Risks to Diagnosis and Treatment

open access: yesMedComm, Volume 7, Issue 4, April 2026.
Chronic pain arises through distinct molecular pathways categorized into nociceptive, neuropathic, and nociplastic types. Nociceptive pain begins with TRP channel activation in peripheral nociceptors, signaling via Aδ‐ and C‐fibers through the spinal dorsal horn and spinothalamic tracts to the brain, regulated by descending inhibition and involving ...
