The Allosteric Mechanism of G‐Protein‐Coupled Receptors is Induced Fit, Not Conformational Selection

open access: yesBioEssays, EarlyView.
Allosteric signaling of G‐protein‐coupled receptors (GPCRs) involves a population shift from inactive to active receptor conformations upon binding of ligand agonists. Kinetic and structural data indicate that this population shift is induced by ligand binding to inactive receptor conformations prior to the conformational change from inactive to active.

Antinociceptive and Anti‐inflammatory Effect of Nicandrin B Isolated From Datura ferox in Zebrafish

open access: yesChemistry &Biodiversity, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Nicandrin B (Nic B), a withanolide isolated from Datura ferox leaves, was investigated for its antinociceptive and anti‐inflammatory effects in adult zebrafish (Danio rerio). Animals treated with Nic B (4, 20, and 40 mg/kg) showed no toxicity and maintained normal locomotor activity.
