Targeting the Carotid Body Function With Big‐K+‐Channel Blocker ENA‐001 in Opioid‐Induced Respiratory Depression: A Scoping Review

Pharmacology Research &Perspectives, Volume 14, Issue 4, August 2026.
ABSTRACT Opioids, most intravenous anesthetics and various illicit substances can cause fatal respiratory depression by depressing central respiratory networks. ENA‐001, a ventilatory modulator targeting the carotid bodies, has emerged as a potential countermeasure without impairing analgesia or hypnosis.

Toll‐like receptor 4 mediates lipopolysaccharide‐induced emesis

British Journal of Pharmacology, Volume 183, Issue 16, Page 4592-4609, August 2026.
Background and Purpose Lipopolysaccharide (LPS) induces inflammation and sepsis through Toll‐like receptor 4 (TLR4) activation. Common laboratory animals do not exhibit emesis, but administration of LPS in piglets, cats, and dogs induces emesis via peripheral mechanisms.

Effects of Calorie Restriction With and Without Strength, Endurance or Mixed Training on Fat‐Free and Skeletal Muscle Mass in Overweight or Obese Individuals—A Systematic Review With Pairwise Meta‐Analysis and Network Meta‐Analysis of Randomized Controlled Studies

Diabetes, Obesity and Metabolism, Volume 28, Issue 8, Page 6810-6823, August 2026.
ABSTRACT Aims Calorie restriction (CR) reduces both fat mass and fat‐free mass (FFM), particularly skeletal muscle mass (SMM), which is essential for cardiometabolic health and preventing frailty. This study compares CR alone versus CR plus exercise (EX) on FFM and SMM in overweight/obese patients and examines the effects of different training modes ...

Sleep Disordered Breathing Severity Alters Overnight Temperature Changes in Children

Journal of Sleep Research, Volume 35, Issue 4, August 2026.
ABSTRACT The quality of sleep is very closely related to variations in body temperature. We aimed to assess the feasibility of skin temperature measurements in children attending the sleep laboratory for routine polysomnography and to determine whether there was a difference in body temperature between children with different severities of sleep ...
