Endometriotic cell‐derived HBD‐2 mediated the secretion of histamine from mast cells by binding to MRGPRX2. Histamine sensitized TRPV1 via the activation of HRH1 in pain sensory neurons, thus aggravating hyperalgesia in an endometriosis model. ABSTRACT The studies on how mast cells mediate endometriosis pain are still limited.

A Novel Phospholipase A2 Isolated from Palythoa caribaeorum Possesses Neurotoxic Activity
Zoanthids of the genus Palythoa are distributed worldwide in shallow waters around coral reefs. Like all cnidarians, they possess nematocysts that contain a large diversity of toxins that paralyze their prey.

ABSTRACT Background Peroxiredoxin 6 (PRDX6) scavenges reactive oxygen species (ROS) and plays a key role in antioxidant defense. Although PRDX6 is involved in various cancers, its role in breast cancer (BRCA) remains unclear. Methods Cell proliferation was assessed using CCK‐8, EdU staining, and colony formation assays.

Light‐Activated Pharmacological Tools for Exploring the Cholinergic System
ABSTRACT Cholinergic transmission plays a critical role in both the central and peripheral nervous systems, affecting processes such as learning, memory, and inflammation. Conventional cholinergic drugs generally suffer from poor selectivity and temporal precision, leading to undesired effects and limited therapeutic efficacy. Photopharmacology aims to

Abstract Autism spectrum disorders (ASDs) are diagnosed in 1/100 children worldwide, based on two core symptoms: deficits in social interaction and communication, and stereotyped behaviours. G protein‐coupled receptors (GPCRs) are the largest family of cell‐surface receptors that transduce extracellular signals to convergent intracellular signalling ...

Gαq signalling from endosomes: A new conundrum
Abstract G‐protein‐coupled receptors (GPCRs) constitute the largest family of membrane receptors, and are involved in the transmission of a variety of extracellular stimuli such as hormones, neurotransmitters, light and odorants into intracellular responses.
