Spaceborne and spaceborn: Physiological aspects of pregnancy and birth during interplanetary flight
Abstract Crewed interplanetary return missions that are on the planning horizon will take years, more than enough time for initiation and completion of a pregnancy. Pregnancy is viewed as a sequence of processes – fertilization, blastocyst formation, implantation, gastrulation, placentation, organogenesis, gross morphogenesis, birth and neonatal ...

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 ...

Recent optical approaches for anatomical and functional dissection of neuron–astrocyte circuitry
Abstract figure legend This review summarises novel optical approaches to deciphering structural and functional wiring diagrams of neuron–astrocyte circuits in the brain. There are three groups: the anatomical proximity assay, transsynaptic viral tracing and the functional connection assay. The FRET‐based neuron–astrocyte proximity assay allows mapping

Prediabetic cardiomyopathy is attenuated by hypothalamic PVN oxytocin neuron activation
Abstract figure legend A long‐term high‐fat, high‐fructose diet induces prediabetes with insulin resistance, hyperinsulinaemia, elevated triglycerides and metabolic‐associated steatotic liver disease (MASLD) in male rats. Animals developed prediabetic cardiomyopathy characterized by diastolic dysfunction, interstitial fibrosis and tachycardia ...
