Boesenbergia rotunda Ethanolic Extract Inhibits Compound Action Potentials via Opioid Receptors
Boesenbergia rotunda, traditionally used to relieve stomach, abdomen, joint, muscle, and rheumatic pain was also reported for its antinociceptive effect on a mouse model. However, the possible pain relief effect of Boesenbergia rotunda ethanolic extract (

Aims We sought to characterize adverse events and deaths associated with the use of psychoactive substances in children and adolescents. Methods Two French Addictovigilance databases were analysed: spontaneous reports and deaths over the period 2016–2021, in subjects aged 10–<18 years. An unsupervised classification was implemented on consumption data (

Insights into the interaction between hemorphins and δ-opioid receptor from molecular modeling
Hemorphins are short atypical opioid peptide fragments embedded in the β-chain of hemoglobin. They have received considerable attention recently due to their interaction with opioid receptors.

Untangling the complexity of opioid receptor function
Mu opioid receptor agonists are among the most powerful analgesic medications but also among the most addictive. The current opioid crisis has energized a quest to develop opioid analgesics that are devoid of untoward effects.

Aims In 2013, risk minimization measures (RMMs) were introduced in Europe to address the increased cardiovascular risk linked to diclofenac. This study aimed to assess the impact of those RMMs on analgesic use. Methods Primary care data from CPRD GOLD (UK) were used.

Interactions of the opioid and cannabinoid systems in reward: Insights from knockout studies
The opioid system consists of three receptors, mu, delta, and kappa, which are activated by endogenous opioid peptides (enkephalins, endorphins and dynorphins). The endogenous cannabinoid system comprises lipid neuromodulators (endocannabinoids), enzymes

Aims At Koç University School of Medicine, a one‐week rational pharmacotherapy (RPHM) programme, modelled after WHO 6‐step, has been introduced in the fourth‐year curriculum to improve prescription skills. For efficient problem‐based learning (PBL) sessions on a prespecified topic, students need to brush up on basic pharmacology knowledge, so we ...

The synergistic effect of anticholinergic burden and depression on fall risk in older persons
Aims Both anticholinergic burden (ACB) and depression are known to increase fall risk in older persons, next to increasing morbidity and mortality. However, the effect of depression on fall risk associated with ACB is unclear. This is relevant because several antidepressants have anticholinergic effects to some extent.
