The effects of isatin (indole-2, 3-dione) on pituitary adenylate cyclase-activating polypeptide-induced hyperthermia in rats [PDF]

open access: yes, 2002
Background Previous studies have demonstrated that centrally administered natriuretic peptides and pituitary adenylate cyclase-activating polypeptide-38 (PACAP-38) have hyperthermic properties.

Amacrine cell inputs to OFF midget ganglion cells in macaque retina

open access: yesThe Journal of Physiology, EarlyView.
Abstract figure legend The goal of this study was to explain the findings from physiological studies that OFF midget ganglion cells had larger receptive field centers than expected from their dendritic field diameters. First, we confirmed that OFF mRGCs (OFF MGC) receive input from diffuse bipolar cells (DB) as well as OFF midget bipolar cells (FMB ...

Studies on inhibitory modulation of urinary tract motility [PDF]

open access: yes, 2014
Overactive Bladder (OAB) is a symptom syndrome characterized by urgency and frequency, with or without urge incontinence. Research concerning the mechanisms underlying OAB and finding new inhibitory factor(s) is intensive.

Pellagra From Tryptophan Depletion in Carcinoid Syndrome due to a Pulmonary Atypical Carcinoid Neuroendocrine Tumor

open access: yesClinical Case Reports, Volume 14, Issue 4, April 2026.
ABSTRACT Pellagra may complicate functioning pulmonary atypical carcinoid and present as a subtle acral dermatosis rather than the classical photo‐distributed rash. In neuroendocrine tumor patients with chronic diarrhea and new skin changes, clinicians should suspect niacin deficiency and consider empiric nicotinamide, even when niacin assays are ...

Receptor oligomerization: from early evidence to current understanding in class B GPCRs [PDF]

open access: yes, 2013
Dimerization or oligomerization of G protein-coupled receptors (GPCRs) are known to modulate receptor functions in terms of ontogeny, ligand-oriented regulation, pharmacological diversity, signal transduction, and internalization.

A Review of Vagus Nerve Stimulation for Disease: Comprehensive Theory and Evidence for Mechanisms of Action

open access: yesComprehensive Physiology, Volume 16, Issue 2, April 2026.
Vagus nerve stimulation (VNS) effects span central and peripheral organ systems through diverse mechanistic pathways. This comprehensive review provides a unified synthesis of these mechanisms across neurological, cardiovascular, immunological, metabolic, and gastrointestinal domains, filling a critical gap and serving as a foundational resource for ...

Actin cytoskeleton-dependent regulation of corticotropin-releasing factor receptor heteromers [PDF]

open access: yes, 2017
Stress responses are highly nuanced and variable, but how this diversity is achieved by modulating receptor function is largely unknown. Corticotropin-releasing factor receptors (CRFRs), class B G protein–coupled receptors, are pivotal in mediating ...

Whisking Behaviour Reveals Stronger Evidence of Habituation in Homozygous Reeler Mice Compared to Controls

open access: yesGenes, Brain and Behavior, Volume 25, Issue 2, April 2026.
In the habituation task, locomotion speed, whisker angular position and whisker spread decreased between the first two consecutive sessions in all mice, suggesting that the animals were less focused on sampling the area as they got more familiar with the environment.

Targeting Arterial Dysfunction in Cardiovascular Disease Using Stem Cell‐Based Therapies

open access: yesThe FASEB Journal, Volume 40, Issue 6, 31 March 2026.
Graphical presentation of stem cell‐based therapies for arterial dysfunction, endothelial repair and regeneration strategies. SMC, smooth muscle cell. ABSTRACT Arterial regeneration represents a critical frontier in cardiovascular medicine, as progressive endothelial dysfunction, maladaptive vascular smooth muscle cell (SMC) plasticity, and chronic ...
