Comorbidity Patterns Between Hearing Loss and Symptomatic Dizziness in Middle‐Aged and Older Adults
ABSTRACT Objective To explore the comorbidity patterns between hearing loss and symptomatic dizziness (HL‐SD) in middle‐aged and older adults. Methods This cross‐sectional study used data from the 1999 to 2004 National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey (NHANES). After excluding incomplete data, 2961 participants aged 40–69 were analyzed. Logistic

The G protein–coupled receptor (GPCR) superfamily consists of the most common targets of approved drugs. Targeting GPCRs offers appealing avenues for therapeutic development. Antibodies and their fragments, such as single‐domain antibodies (VHHs or nanobodies), have emerged as useful alternatives to small molecule pharmacophores as building blocks in ...

Beyond Histamine: Mast Cell‐Neuron Communication in Chronic Pruritic and Pain Disorders
ABSTRACT Chronic pruritic and cutaneous pain disorders are increasingly recognized as neuroimmune conditions driven by dynamic interactions between immune and sensory systems. While histamine has historically dominated models of mast cell‐mediated itch, accumulating evidence indicates that non‐histaminergic pathways are central to chronic disease.

Neurokinin-1 receptor: neurokinin-1 receptor, purification and refolding
El receptor Neuroquinin-1 (NK1R) és un GPCR que es troba en el sistema nerviós central i perifèric dels vertebrats i és responsable dels processos fisiològics com la transmissió de dolor, secreció endocrina i exocrina, vasodilatació, modulació de la proliferació cel·lular i molts altres.

Physiological mechanisms and therapeutic targets in chronic cough
Abstract Cough is a vital defensive reflex that safeguards the airways; however, it can become maladaptive and pathological. Chronic cough (>8 weeks in duration) affects up to 10% of the global adult population and is associated with considerable health status impairment. The understanding of cough physiology remains limited.

Placental mRNA Expression of Neurokinin B Is Increased in PCOS Pregnancies with Female Offspring
Current research suggests that polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS) might originate in utero and implicates the placenta in its pathogenesis. Kisspeptin (KISS1) and neurokinin B (NKB) are produced by the placenta in high amounts, and they have been ...

Involvement of midbrain tectum neurokinin-mediated mechanisms in fear and anxiety
Electrical stimulation of midbrain tectum structures, particularly the dorsal periaqueductal gray (dPAG) and inferior colliculus (IC), produces defensive responses, such as freezing and escape behavior.
