ABSTRACT Allergic rhinitis (AR) is a chronic inflammatory disease of the nasal mucosa characterized by allergen sensitization and the involvement of multiple inflammatory mediators. Currently, the treatment of AR mainly includes symptomatic relief, anti‐inflammatory therapy, and nerve desensitization. However, these treatments have limitations in fully

Resting behaviour as a target for innovative mosquito control strategies
Abstract This work reviews and discusses how a deeper knowledge of mosquito time‐allocation, particularly resting periods, can enhance the effectiveness and deployment of classical vector control tools. As more high‐resolution data are gathered by novel tracking devices, follow‐up questions investigating mosquito behaviour are likely to arise ...

Overexpression of GSK‐3β in DG GABAergic neurons impairs neurogenesis by reducing GABA release, which can be reversed by enhancing GABAergic transmission. ABSTRACT The activation of glycogen synthase kinase 3β (GSK‐3β) and the deterioration of spatial memory represent prominent pathological and clinical manifestations of Alzheimer's disease (AD ...

Healthy RPE cells produce AMPs and AMP precursors, including amyloid precursor protein (APP) and chemerin, and protect the neuroretina from blood‐borne pathogens and maintain homeostasis. When RPE cells undergo senescence, the antibacterial activity declines, and APP undergoes amylogenesis, leading to Aβ deposition.

Abstract Background Hypogonadism and infertility are two conditions that are heavily affected by overweight and obesity in the male patient. Glucagon‐like peptide 1 agonists (GLP‐1RAs) are a recently introduced class of antidiabetic drugs with powerful weight‐loss effect; this may induce an indirect positive effect on the testicular function ...

Using Structural Information of Peptides, Derived from NMR Spectroscopy, in Pharmaceutical Chemistry
The significance of information gained from the solution structure of peptides for pharmaceutical research is demonstrated with two examples: the neuropeptide Y (NPY) hormone system and a undecapeptide designed for use as a chemical sensor.

Abstract Background and Purpose Emerging literature indicates that simultaneously targeting glucagon‐like peptide‐1 receptors (GLP‐1Rs) and neuropeptide Y receptors (Y1/Y2) may represent a new pharmacotherapeutic approach to treating opioid use disorder (OUD).

Abstract Background and Purpose Psoriasis is a chronic, relapsing, immune‐mediated inflammatory skin disease. The transient receptor potential ankyrin 1 (TRPA1) ion channel plays a protective role in the formation of psoriasiform skin reactions. Here, we investigated the pharmacological activation and blockade of TRPA1 in human skin (patho)physiology ...
