M1 muscarinic receptor activation decreases alcohol consumption via a reduction in consummatory behavior

open access: yesPharmacology Research & Perspectives, 2022
Muscarinic acetylcholine receptors (mAChRs) have been shown to mediate alcohol consumption and seeking. Both M4 and M5 mAChRs have been highlighted as potential novel treatment targets for alcohol use disorders (AUD).

Glial cells in the heart: Implications for their roles in health and disease

open access: yesThe Journal of Physiology, Volume 604, Issue 4, Page 1531-1546, 15 February 2026.
Abstract figure legend Schematic representation of cardiac autonomic ganglia within epicardial fat pads (posterior heart surface shown), containing vagal postganglionic neuron cell bodies, associated fibres, and glia. These ganglia receive cholinergic input from vagal preganglionic neurons and adrenergic input from sympathetic postganglionic neurons ...

Alpha‐Ketoglutarate Regulates Intestinal Motility and Health by OXGR1 in Nitrergic Neuron of Enteric Nervous System

open access: yesFood Frontiers, Volume 7, Issue 1, January 2026.
ABSTRACT Intestinal health could be affected by intestinal motility, which is controlled by the enteric nervous system. In this study, we found that α‐ketoglutarate (AKG) inhibits intestinal motility and improves intestinal permeability, accompanied by an increased count of intestinal flora.

Spirocyclic Diamine Scaffolds for Medicinal Chemistry

open access: yesHelvetica Chimica Acta, Volume 109, Issue 1, January 2026.
Here we enumerated 391 spirocyclic diamine drug scaffolds with ring sizes four to eight and found that most of them are unknown. We prepared four novel such spirocycles and discovered a micromolar inhibitor of the M4 muscarinic receptor. ABSTRACT Medicinal chemistry requires the exploration of structurally diverse compound families to expand the ...
