Food and the brain: Neural and endocrine control of feeding, metabolism, and reproduction

Journal of Neuroendocrinology, EarlyView.
Abstract Feeding and reproductive function are regulated by intricate systems that monitor food availability and energy stores, and on the basis of energy status, promote or put a brake on reproduction. This is particularly evident in the systems that regulate feeding and reproductive state in female mammals.

Systemic, Lifestyle and Environmental Modifying Factors in the Pathogenesis of Periodontitis

Journal of Periodontal Research, EarlyView.
A variety of impacting factors in the pathogenesis of periodontitis exist, including systemic, lifestyle, and environmental factors. This review highlights the manifold mechanistic aspects of the link between the pathogenesis of periodontitis, addressing these numerous factors to supplement the long‐standing knowledge of the progression of the disease.

The Role of Endogenous Beta-Endorphin and Enkephalins in the Crosstalk Between Ethanol and Morphine

Pharmaceuticals
Background: There is clinical concern about the combined use of alcohol and opiates. Several lines of evidence support an interaction between alcohol and the endogenous opioid system.

Targeting pain and inflammation: A comparative study of photobiomodulation with 532 and 660 nm lasers in rats

Photochemistry and Photobiology, EarlyView.
This study evaluated the analgesic and inflammatory modulation effect of PBM using 660 nm (red) and 532 nm (green) lasers in a rat model of postoperative pain. Wistar rats underwent paw incision and received laser irradiation according to their groups.

Use of liquid platelet‐rich fibrin (liquid PRF) in temporomandibular joint disorders: A narrative review with clinical recommendations

Periodontology 2000, EarlyView.
Abstract Aim This narrative review aimed to gather evidence from comparative and non‐comparative clinical studies to assess: (1) whether the administration of liquid platelet‐rich fibrin (liquid PRF) provides any clinical benefits for managing temporomandibular disorders (TMD), and if so, based on comparative clinical studies, (2) whether it offers ...

GABAB receptor‐mediated modulation of sensory neuron excitability: Roles of CaV2.2, G‐protein‐coupled inwardly rectifying potassium (GIRK) channels, and hyperpolarisation‐activated cyclic nucleotide‐gated (HCN) channels in human and mouse nociception

Experimental Physiology, EarlyView.
Abstract Chronic visceral pain is a key symptom of irritable bowel syndrome. Modulation of voltage‐gated calcium and potassium channels by G protein‐coupled receptors plays a key role in dampening nociceptive transmission. Both baclofen and the analgesic peptide α‐conotoxin Vc1.1 activate GABAB receptors (GABABR), resulting in inhibition of CaV2.2 and ...
