In vitro pharmacological characterization of mixed mu/NOP receptor agonists
reservedPain is an unpleasant sensory and emotional experience that is associated with actual or potential tissue damage or described in such terms. Currently, pain is a worldwide burden, and, in the process of pain treatment, patients experience various

Precision medicine in paediatrics: Progress and priorities
Precision medicine is revolutionizing personalized healthcare, advancing both diagnostics and therapeutics at an unprecedented pace. Reviewing the paediatric applications of pharmacometrics, pharmacogenomics and advanced therapy medicinal products highlights not only the relevance of these exciting innovations to frontline care but also the significant

Exploring new avenues: Psychedelic‐assisted therapy for young people
Rates of mental illness in young people are increasing, whereas the development of novel mental health treatments has not significantly progressed. Psychedelic‐assisted therapy, using substances such as psilocybin and 3,4‐methylenedioxymethamphetamine (MDMA), has shown potential in the treatment of mental illnesses in the adult population, including ...

Endogenous opioids regulate moment-to-moment neuronal communication and excitability
The endogenous opioid system regulates fear and anxiety, but the underlying cellular mechanism is unclear. Winterset al. shows that in the intercalated cells (ITC) of the amygdala, endogenous opioids suppress glutamatergic inputs via the δ-opioid ...

A scoping review of quality prescribing indicators, rules and criteria for primary care
Medication‐related problems (MRPs) place a substantial burden on the healthcare system, contributing to hospital admissions and significant healthcare costs. Quality prescribing indicators (QPIs), rules and criteria serve to educate prescribers about high risk MRPs and to monitor prescribing behaviours. This study aims to summarize existing indicators,

Peroxiredoxin 6 mediates Gαi protein-coupled receptor inactivation by cJun kinase
Opioid receptors are important modulators of nociceptive pain. Here the authors show that opioid receptor activation recruits peroxiredoxin 6 (PRDX6) to the receptor-Gαi complex by c-Jun N-terminal kinase, resulting in Gαi depalmitoylation and enhanced ...

Molecular Aspects of Opioid Receptors and Opioid Receptor Painkillers
The unpleasant sensation of pain is experienced by all human beings at a given point in life. When pain gets severe and/or chronic it requires medical treatment. For over a thousand years, opioid agonists have been employed therapeutically to treat pain, with the first reports of such use involving the alkaloid morphine dated to the second century B.C.(

Ingestion of placenta or amniotic fluid produces a dramatic enhancement of centrally mediated opioid antinociception in the rat. The present experiments investigated the role of each opioid receptor type (m, d, k) in the antinociception-modulating ...
