Neuroimmune Interaction in the Regulation of Peripheral Opioid-mediated Analgesia in Inflammation
Peripheral immune-cell-mediated analgesia in inflammation is an important endogenous mechanism of pain control. Opioid receptors localized on peripheral sensory nerve terminals are activated by endogenous opioid peptides released from immune cells to ...

The Long Arc of Substance Use Policy Innovation in Medicaid: Looking Back, Looking Forward
Policy Points The role of Medicaid in financing, organizing, and delivering substance use disorder (SUD) treatment has grown tremendously over time owing to expansions of eligibility and a push toward more uniformity in benefits. Current innovations in SUD treatment focus on expanding the delivery system to create a comprehensive continuum of care ...

Background and Purpose Most older people use polypharmacy (≥5 medications), particularly those with cardiovascular disease. The effects of polypharmacy on the cardiovascular system are not well described. We examined the effect of a chronic polypharmacy regimen on left ventricular (LV) function, structure and proteome in young and old mice of both ...

GPCR‐G protein signalling and its mutational landscape in cancer—Driver or passenger
G protein‐coupled receptors (GPCRs) play a crucial role in cellular signalling, regulating various physiological processes. Abnormal expression and mutations of GPCRs have been implicated in several types of cancer, influencing tumour initiation, progression and immune response.

This review outlines the potential role of anti‐GPCR autoantibodies in MASLD/MASH, given their involvement in a wide range of diseases and their possible contribution to MASLD/MASH pathophysiology. We also focused on anti‐ApoA1 autoantibodies, sharing functional features with anti‐GPCR autoantibodies and have been shown to promote liver steatosis in ...
