Infiltrating peripheral monocyte TREM-1 mediates dopaminergic neuron injury in substantia nigra of Parkinson’s disease model mice

Cell Death and Disease
Neuroinflammation is a key factor in the pathogenesis of Parkinson’s disease (PD). Activated microglia in the central nervous system (CNS) and infiltration of peripheral immune cells contribute to dopaminergic neuron loss. However, the role of peripheral

Efavirenz as a psychotropic drug.

European review for medical and pharmacological sciences, 2020
Antiretroviral drugs are the mainstay of treatment for human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) infection. Lifelong highly active antiretroviral therapy (HAART) is indicated to prevent disease progression to acquired immunodeficiency syndrome (AIDS). Efavirenz was a first-line component of HAART across the world for many years. The purpose of this article is

Integration of Serum Neurofilament Light Chain and Cortical Dysfunction Improves Diagnostic Accuracy in ALS

Annals of Clinical and Translational Neurology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Objective To determine whether integration of serum neurofilament light chain (NfL) and cortical dysfunction improves diagnostic accuracy in amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS) when applied alongside the Gold Coast criteria (GCC). Methods In this prospective study, 148 participants with suspected ALS were recruited (101 ALS and 47 with ALS ...

TREM-1-dependent macrophage infiltration mediates visceral hypersensitivity via vlPAG GABAergic neuron activation in a mouse model of inflammatory bowel disease

Cellular & Molecular Biology Letters
Background Visceral pain is a common symptom of inflammatory bowel disease (IBD). Although triggering receptor expressed on myeloid cells-1 (TREM-1) has been shown to induce infiltration of peripheral immune cells into the central nervous system, the ...

On the metapharmacology of psychotropic drugs

Comprehensive Psychiatry, 1965
Summary We have proposed psychoanalytic metapsychology as a useful explanatory tool for investigation of drug effects upon the psychic apparatus. All six metapsychological points of view: (1) genetic; (2) dynamic; (3) topographic; (4) structural; (5) economic; (6) adaptive, were brought to bear upon the psychic events in connection with drug use ...

Cannabinoid CB1 Receptor in Nociceptors Mediates Postoperative Analgesia via ASIC3 Inhibition

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
CB1R and ASIC3 are co‐expressed in CGRP+ nociceptors of mouse DRG. Plantar incision triggers an upregulation of ASIC3 and activation of ASIC3+ neurons, driving mechanical allodynia. CB1R activation suppresses ASIC3 function and downstream ERK1/2 phosphorylation, thereby braking nociceptive signaling and accelerating pain resolution.

Impaired synaptic plasticity and decreased glutamatergic neuron excitability induced by SIRT1/BDNF downregulation in the hippocampal CA1 region are involved in postoperative cognitive dysfunction

Cellular & Molecular Biology Letters
Background Postoperative cognitive dysfunction (POCD) is a common complication after anesthesia/surgery, especially among elderly patients, and poses a significant threat to their postoperative quality of life and overall well-being.

The activation of GABAergic neurons in the hypothalamic tuberomammillary nucleus attenuates sevoflurane and propofol-induced anesthesia in mice

Frontiers in Pharmacology, 2023
Background: The histaminergic neurons in the hypothalamic tuberomammillary nucleus (TMN) have been suggested to play a vital role in maintaining a rising state.

Oral Actinomyces Species Exposure is Associated with Anxiety‐Like Behavior, Mitochondrial Remodeling, and Altered GABAergic Pathways

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
Oral exposure to cannabis‐associated Actinomyces species, particularly A. meyeri, is associated with anxiety‐like behavior in mice in the absence of detectable bacterial translocation or overt systemic inflammation. These findings support a potential oral‐brain metabolic axis involving candidate metabolites such as arginine and argininosuccinate ...
