Risperidone is a commonly used antipsychotic for treating psychiatric illness in children and adolescents. There is a large variability in risperidone response and discontinuation rates remain high. Pharmacogenomics offers the opportunity to improve risperidone outcomes, yet studies in pediatric populations are limited.

Nicotinic Acetylcholine Receptors are Possible Therapeutic Targets for Schizophrenia [PDF]
The rate of smoking in patients with schizophrenia is higher than that in the general population. Nicotinic acetylcholine receptors (nAChR) are involved in the sensorimotor gating deficits in schizophrenia.

Pain is a key determinant of quality‐of‐life following breast cancer surgery, the most common cancer operation in the United States. Gabapentinoids are frequently prescribed for pain management, yet their respiratory, cardiovascular, and opioid‐related adverse effects remain unclear.

Philanthotoxin analogues that selectively inhibit ganglionic nicotinic acetylcholine receptors with exceptional potency [PDF]
Philanthotoxin-433 (PhTX-433) is an active component of the venom from the Egyptian digger wasp, Philanthus triangulum. PhTX-433 non-selectively inhibits several excitatory ligand-gated ion channels, and we recently showed that its synthetic analogue ...

Healthy volunteers (HVs) are essential for phase I trials, yet their recruitment and screening remain resource‐intensive and ethically complex. High screening failure (SF) rates highlight the need to evaluate and understand all aspects of the enrolment processes. We analyzed SF patterns in a large German HV cohort and explored participants' motivations,

The activation mechanism of alpha 1 homomeric glycine receptors [PDF]
The glycine receptor mediates fast synaptic inhibition in the spinal cord and brainstem. Its activation mechanism is not known, despite the physiological importance of this receptor and the fact that it can serve as a prototype for other homopentameric ...

Post‐mortem blood drug concentrations exhibit substantial overlap between deaths in which a drug was implicated and those in which it was not. Analysis of over 58,000 NPSUM cases demonstrates that demographic stratification does not resolve this uncertainty, reinforcing the need for contextual, evidence‐based interpretation rather than concentration ...

Fhod3 in zebrafish supports myofibril stability during growth of embryonic skeletal muscle
Abstract Background Actin filament organization in cardiomyocytes critically depends on the formin Fhod3, but a role for Fhod3 in skeletal muscle development has not yet been described. Results We demonstrate here that in zebrafish mutated for one of two fhod3 paralog genes, fhod3a, skeletal muscle of the trunk appears normal through 2 days post ...

An investigation of NAADP-dependent Ca²⁺ signalling mechanisms in arterial smooth muscle [PDF]
Previous investigations on pulmonary artery smooth muscle cells have shown that nicotinic acid adenine dinucleotide diphosphate (NAADP) evokes highly localised intracellular Ca²⁺ bursts by mobilising thapsigargin-insensitive Ca²⁺ stores.

A proteomic investigation of forebrain regeneration in the leopard gecko (Eublepharis macularius)
Our investigation reveals ontogenetic, injury‐ and regeneration‐associated proteomic changes in the leopard gecko forebrain. Abstract Background The ability to replace lost or damaged neurons following an injury is termed reactive neurogenesis. Although reactive neurogenesis has been reported in several lizard species, the molecular mechanisms ...
