Arthritis Care &Research, EarlyView.Objective Despite guideline recommendations, long‐term glucocorticoid (GC) use is common in rheumatoid arthritis (RA). We conducted a clinician survey nested within a large registry to identify patient and clinician factors associated with GC use. Methods Clinicians contributing patients to the CorEvitas Rheumatoid Arthritis Registry were surveyed ...

Butorphanol: Effects of a Prototypical Agonist-Antagonist Analgesic on κ-Opioid Receptors
Journal of Pharmacological Sciences, 2005 The opioid analgesic, butorphanol (17-cyclobutylmethyl-3,14-dihydroxymorphinan) tartrate is a prototypical agonist-antagonist opioid analgesic agent whose potential for abuse has been the cause of litigation in the United States.

The Role of Opioids on Motor Activity in Physio-pathological Conditions [PDF]
, 2009 To date, four principal classes of opioid peptide receptors, μ (MOP), κ (KOP), δ (DOP) and ORL- 1 (NOP) have been identified and cloned. The experimental and clinical importance of this receptor family has been amply demonstrated in many diseases ...

The role of dimerisation in the cellular trafficking of G-protein-coupled receptors [PDF]
, 2010 The concept that G-protein-coupled receptors can exist as homomeric and/or heteromeric complexes is now well established. Despite this, how dynamic such interactions are and if this may be modulated during receptor trafficking remain topics of debate ...

Arthritis Care &Research, EarlyView.Objective The aim of this study was to test the hypothesis that multijoint osteoarthritis would modify the relation between time and frailty progression, in which more affected joints would lead to larger declines over six years compared to those without osteoarthritis using data from the Canadian Longitudinal Study on Aging.

Social trauma and the mu-opioid system in depression [PDF]
, 2011 The overarching thesis under investigation is that the endogenous opioid system plays a key role in depression subsequent to traumatic childhood social experiences. This is suggested by the fact that animal work indicates that mu-opioids robustly mediate

Advanced Science, EarlyView.Tissue incision induces CXCL5 release, which activates neuronal CXCR2 on incision‐innervating sensory neurons. Neuronal CXCR2 couples with TRPA1 to drive mechanical pain and engages p38 MAPK signaling to upregulate TRPV1 and promote heat pain. Targeted Cxcr2 knockdown relieves incisional pain while preserving CXCR2‐dependent neutrophil responses ...

Angewandte Chemie, EarlyView.Strategic incorporation of unnatural amino acids transforms macrocyclic peptides into drug‐like molecules capable of engaging challenging targets. These building blocks enhance stability, permeability, and bioavailability, accelerating the development of next‐generation peptide therapeutics.

The role of the μ-opioid receptors in the mechanism of ethanol-stimulated mesolimbic dopamine release [PDF]
, 2009 textThe goal of this dissertation was to investigate the role of μ-opioid receptors in the mechanism of ethanol-stimulated dopamine release in the nucleus accumbens shell (NAcS) of rats.
