The Role of Inflammation in Migraine Headaches: A Review
Inflammation plays a crucial role in the onset and intensity of both migraine headache symptoms and attacks. Pro‐inflammatory neurotransmitters and mediators released from neural cells and tissues that contributes to increase in nitric oxide, increase in glutamate, alterations in serotonin and dopamine levels and pain perception are involved in ...

ABSTRACT Drug‐induced immune reactions are an important burden for patients and health systems. They can be classified into immediate‐drug hypersensitivity reactions (IDHRs) and delayed‐DHRs (DDHRs) based on their phenotype. Drugs do not always behave as allergens and need to bind to proteins, forming adducts.

Abstract Autism spectrum disorders (ASDs) are diagnosed in 1/100 children worldwide, based on two core symptoms: deficits in social interaction and communication, and stereotyped behaviours. G protein‐coupled receptors (GPCRs) are the largest family of cell‐surface receptors that transduce extracellular signals to convergent intracellular signalling ...

Microscopy and spectroscopy approaches to study GPCR structure and function
Abstract The GPCR signalling cascade is a key pathway responsible for the signal transduction of a multitude of physical and chemical stimuli, including light, odorants, neurotransmitters and hormones. Understanding the structural and functional properties of the GPCR cascade requires direct observation of signalling processes in high spatial and ...
