Identifying functional populations among the interneurons in laminae I-III of the spinal dorsal horn [PDF]

open access: yes, 2017
The spinal dorsal horn receives input from primary afferent axons, which terminate in a modality-specific fashion in different laminae. The incoming somatosensory information is processed through complex synaptic circuits involving excitatory and ...

Opioid peptide-derived analgesics [PDF]

open access: yesThe AAPS Journal, 2005
Two recent developments of opioid peptide-based analgesics are reviewed. The first part of the review discusses the dermorphin-derived, cationic-aromatic tetrapeptide H-Dmt-D-Arg-Phe-Lys-NH(2) ([Dmt(1)]DALDA, where Dmt indicates 2',6'-dimethyltyrosine), which showed subnanomolar mu receptor binding affinity, extraordinary mu receptor selectivity, and ...

Mass Spectrometry Structural Proteomics Enabled by Limited Proteolysis and Cross‐Linking

open access: yesMass Spectrometry Reviews, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT The exploration of protein structure and function stands at the forefront of life science and represents an ever‐expanding focus in the development of proteomics. As mass spectrometry (MS) offers readout of protein conformational changes at both the protein and peptide levels, MS‐based structural proteomics is making significant strides in the

Effect of different agonistic experiences on behavioural seizures in fully amygdala kindled rats [PDF]

open access: yes, 1992
Fully amygdala kindled rats were exposed to two different inter-male agonistic experiences in order to study the interaction between epilepsy and acute social stress.

Intratumoral Nerve Phased Development: A Promising Therapeutic Target

open access: yesMedicine Bulletin, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT The nervous system has emerged as a critical regulator of tumor biology, engaging in dynamic crosstalk with cancer cells. Although the protumorigenic role of innervation is well established, increasing attention is now directed toward reciprocal influences—how tumors actively shape and remodel local nerve networks within the tumor ...

Cerebrospinal Fluid Proenkephalin Predicts Striatal Atrophy Decades before Clinical Motor Diagnosis in Huntington's Disease

open access: yesMovement Disorders, EarlyView.
Abstract Background Huntington's disease (HD) is characterized by early, selective, progressive vulnerability of striatal medium spiny neurons (MSNs). Proenkephalin (PENK), a precursor of opioid peptides abundantly expressed in MSNs, is a promising biomarker of striatal integrity, but region‐specific associations and its potential for early‐stage ...

Research Note: Morphine influences circulating and tissue concentrations of met-enkephalin and proenkephalin (PENK) expression and plasma concentrations of corticosterone in chickens

open access: yesPoultry Science
: The effects of the administration of the opioid agonist, morphine, on plasma and tissue concentrations of Met-enkephalin were determined in 14 wk old female chickens.
